Matt, the shop in Hemel was simply called The Model Shop doing Tamiya only via RiKo the importer who was based behind them in the warehouses and office's. Then across the road was The Model Shop Too which catered for other makes and types of models.

Chris at Racestore was a legend. Spent most of my pocket money there as a young teenager on Kyosho and Schumacher parts and even copies of his racing newspaper FTD too... It was his closing and that of the old Watford Model Centre that prompted me to start up DMS in the late 80's and very early 90's
