⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great Service and Honest Pricing
Visited the shop today to pick up a motor, ESC, battery, and charger. There were two customers ahead of me, so I waited about an hour — but it was worth it.
What really touched me was when Winnie personally came out to greet my wife (who was waiting outside) and apologized for the long wait. That small gesture showed genuine care and sincerity — something rare these days.
The pricing here is very competitive, and the service feels warm and personal. Definitely worth the visit, and I’ll be back again for future upgrades!

I managed to drop by today, having passed by this store quite a few times before but when it was closed. There is a very beautiful M4 Sherman tank model in the shop window which is no longer in production.
The lady boss was very friendly - she shared about the intricacies of RC model building, the variety of model kits she had, and even offered some insights on my Titanic 1:400 model kit that I shared a photo of.
I was impressed by her humbleness and willingness to share - Swan Model & Trading is an old-timer business that has been around for 4 decades. It is open from 1.30 to 7 pm daily except Sundays and PHs.

Lady boss is really passionate and knowledgeable about model vehicles. Even though we did not purchase anything today, she very kindly and enthusiastically responded to our queries and we left the shop excited about starting to build our first model together. Look forward to visiting again and getting something from this shop!
