Default Just my thought...

14 yrs ago, It cost me a few hundred bucks to get hold of a brand new 4wd buggy from Tamiya. Now a buggy cost about the same or even going for a lesser price. Bear in mind, 14 yrs ago
Over the year, technology advances, people advances, manufacturing cost come down.

Previously, a Tamiya Hotshot used to be The 4WD off-roader, but we get to see more Cat2000, Cat3000, MR4-BC, MX-4. But hardly any Baja Camp.

Anyway, there is a finite hobby market in Singapore. There is only that might people who own a RC Car. In some cases, we can identify individuals who own what car. And that's no good for LHS. I felt that to survive in the hobby industry, LHS has to look into foreign market, such as mail order to other country, carry more unique products, etc.

Just an example,

To buy a Tamiya car and parts in US, it probably cost a bomb, but to buy it here, it probably cheaper. So, there is potential to export Tamiya to specific shops in US.

Don't know the address of the Yishun shop but you can find Winnie's place at Orchard Plaza (next to Orchard Point which is next to Centrepoint) 2nd floor.

If that's the case, then most likely you WILL be dissapointed.
