I really do love the magazines and it has been just what I needed for starting into the hobby and not knowing how to paint. Only reason it’s not a 5 star rating is because we don’t get the same perks... See more

Ordering the item was really easy

Ordering the item was really easy. I received it in good time and it was well packaged. My PayPal had a glitch and I managed to pay twice but the company sorted out the refund.

Hi there,

Thank you for your review.

I am delighted to hear that you got your delivery in good time! Your feedback is appreciated. With the tracking information, the system can sometimes incorrectly assign a number as being with either UPS or USPS (we're looking into this), so try the other if the first one doesn't work.

We do hope you continue to enjoy your collection!

Scammers

Sent unsolicited goods I didn't notice sign up for and charged extra money on top of my subscription without being informed. Cancelled immediately and cancelled the direct debit before they tried to steal more money.

All going like clockwork

All going like clockwork. I have received everything as promised. Most of my parts come in bags which always makes me nervous about damage but I’ve never had a problem yet. I think I could say that my experience with this model has been excellent. Thank you!

Great for teaching me how to make miniatures.

Great product, delivered to my door in perfect condition. All going into my 'Pile of Shame' until the set is complete and I can assemble and paint them completely. Can't wait for my first premium miniature for the higher priced subscription.

Hachette always comes through with great service

Hachette always comes through on these subscription style kits. I've built several now and they have all been smooth. I've only had two issues and they were both resolved in under two days. I just wish the rest of the world followed this customer service model. Looking forward to completing my Dalek!

Hi Antheny,

Thank you for your review.

I am sorry to hear that this happened. This is why we ask for 28 days notice when cancelling, as we cannot stop any pending deliveries or payments. If you're worried that the subscription is still active, however, please email us directly using customer_service_us@contact.hachettepartworks.com, including your last order number and full address, so that we can look into this for you.

Your feedback is appreciated.
