77-830 Posted August 2, 2023 Posted August 2, 2023 Plamoz was a bit of a one hit wonder, well, maybe a bit more than that. They were based out of Hong Kong and offered wheel and tire sets (some have said that their Shelby 10 spokes were the most accurate ever in scale), photo etched detail-up sets, resin trans-kits, metal transfers (I have a few of their transfer sets for the Moebius 300B, they are simple but perfect) and a few other miscellaneous items. Their products covered European, Asian and US market cars. They came on strong with a fantastic product, price and service but seemed to die off pretty quickly. Their website remained active for years but, the majority of their products were out of stock and never restocked. I would check their site occasionally and place an order for something just because of the cool factor and their response and service always remained perfect with my most recent order within the past eight weeks or so. I noticed recently though that their website was gone and assumed that they were gone also. But, I dug around a little online and found that they had taken down their website while in the process of moving from Hong Kong to Japan and they intend to open a new store front in Japan with an apparent renewed interest in scale automotive items again. I sure hope that they will restock some of their detail up items ( Revell 918, Mclaren, AMG, etc) and hopefully bring to market some of the items that they had hinted at along with some completely new products. 2
Exotics_Builder Posted August 2, 2023 Posted August 2, 2023 I have a few of their wheels and the 2014 Z/28 transkit. Excellent stuff 1
kelson Posted August 2, 2023 Posted August 2, 2023 I remember many years ago when they announced they were going to offer a transkit to do a 2000 Mustang cobra R,but it never happened?,hopefully they may do one this time.
BVC500 Posted August 4, 2023 Posted August 4, 2023 They were great at addressing Revell kit issues, like new wheels, tires, etc. Glad to see them restarting. It was weird, because all of a sudden the proprietor stopped responding to people on FB years back and would simply sell what remained from the website.

I would definitely buy one of those.
BVC500 Posted August 5, 2024 Posted August 5, 2024 Plamoz is back up and running! Not sure if and when they'll produce new stuff, but they restocked their Porsche 918 spyder parts. https://www.plamoz.com/en 2

MeatMan Posted August 6, 2024 Posted August 6, 2024 Too bad I built my 918 already. I really wanted that rear hatch kit. ?
