Who distributes / sells Rubicon Models in the US?

I am looking for the new M-8 Greyhound release.

Thanks in advance.

Their US distributor (NOT a retailer) is Golden Distribution. Your local game/hobby shop might be able to special order one for you.

Any US distributor of their models should carry them, like FRP Games. If the M8 is new you may have to wait awhile until they reach stateside as these distributors get them in stock.

Technically, I should have it as I received a shipment yesterday evening.

However, I have not inventoried everything I received yet not dis I get to the boxes with all the Rubicon items so I am unsure if they were included. I know I was shorted on Crusaders as I only received one.

I will have them up tonight.

Contact me via my webstore contact page.

To MiniMo and Sigwald, thank you for mentioning my store. Yes, I carry as much Rubicon stock as possible and we are about to receive the new M8/M20, Hetzer, and M10/36 early this coming week.

Thanks

I wonder how I became a sub Post?

We have a lot of feedback from some customers about not being able to purchase our products in North America. In light of this, we are happy to announce the opening of our official USA Web Store.

The web store is not to compete with our existing US-based channels but we are offering an extra access point to our products for those who are interested. The website is rubiconmodelsusa.com.

Whenever there is an opportunity, please support your local store that supports your games!

So offering direct sales will increase your sales? Maybe but it will keep dozens of small stores like me from continuing to stock them. Why bother since we cannot compete with the manufacturer. Good luck.
In business since 1983.

Just a quick thanks to those that placed orders for the new models with me at NWS. :)

Thanks friends.
