Too bad you can't make it Tempest....next year, keep lunch time open and you can come have lunch with JJ, Ernie, and I.

 

Anyone else from the forums going to be there tomorrow?

Well, looks like we have a hotel room. Found a dog friendly hotel near the exhibit hall.

Road trip!

I was in Disney for the last week and just left Friday. If I would've been keeping up on this thread I would have extended for the weekend to attend. While I did not have anything to enter with me, it would've been good to see and perhaps visit with some of my FSM peers.

Please share any photos as well as your contest results.

v/r,

Ben

To all those that attended, thank you.  The show was a blow out success!  One of the best modelpaloozas.  Bigger space, more vendors, record number of entries and some real talented builders.  

I highly recommend setting your calander for this time next year.  At the end of the show today many vendors were blowing kits out for $5.  I am not talking Lindberg or braile scale.  I walked out with sealed 1/35 tamiya armor by the stack full.  Also scored several Hasegawa and Accurate Miniature 1/48 for $5-10 for sealed kits.  

Dont miss the next one!  $100 bucks on Sunday at the end of the show can go a long way.  See you guys next year.

Here's what fell into my hands at today's model show. I'm pretty happy with the selection and pricing:

Italeri Demag D7..................$5

Hasegawa 1/48 LTV with PE...$20

1/48 Hasegawa FG.1.............$10

I was looking for the Airfix 1/72 FG.1 but man I couldn't pass up the price the vender gave me! Big Smile

I was unable to attend this year due to my grandchildren's baby sitting hours but next year God willing will be around the corner.
