Lancaster, PA shows ?

I went there before but got turned off when I say that they only had like 2 gundam kits (before I was into scale) and they were almost tripple the list price.

I wouldnt even visit any of the stores around if it wernt for paint, which I get at allied hobbies, the rest of their stock is either the same stuff they had two buildings ago, or over priced. 

Those would be the 2 I was talking about.  There is also AAA hobbies in NJ.  It's Stevens International Store.  It's not too far over the bridge.

Smeagol, I'd be happy to find a hobby store over here.  There are only 2 within the city limits.  If you find out about any let me know.  I'll also try to keep you posted.

I was considering a ride in the B17 as a present to myself, but they want $425 !!!!!!!!

You're about 53 miles from Wilmington DE where on the weekend of the 25-25 April MFCA will be holding their 67th annual figure show. There's some amror as well and many vendors. This is one of the biggest shows in the east for figures. Some  of the best figure painter and diorama builders in the world attend this show each year. Here's a link to some of the stuff that was there last year.

Thank you for the info. The weekend for the WWII show is my birthday, and I have Monday off, so I will be there !!!

BTW, I made it to MosquitoCon. It was my 7th year attended in a row !!! And it was awesome, one of the biggest turn outs I can remember. I think they announced over 355 entries while I was there. I took over 600 pics and I am now thinking about making it to the Nationals, ( I have never been to one ). I got two Has. FW-190 kits for $30. 

Crane there is no way a butt the size of mine stays in the background

Hope I run into you there.

Here is a link to the WWII W/E

Hi Crane, and welcome to sunny Central PA. I'm in Harrisburg.

There's not really much in this area. I attended a show a few years back at the Holiday Inn near the Turpike interchange with I-83. The following year however, the show was cancelled. I don't know of any shows nearby in the past two or three years.

Regards,

I moved from Garfield, NJ. I have been to the past 6 shows in Wayne. I will not miss this years show either, besides, I can see family while up there!

I can't find any shows around here - near Lancaster. Too bad, I would go to both !

THnx for the info. on the Weekend in Reading, I will try to find a site with more info.

lol you are probably in the background of some of my pictures from past MosquitoCons ! 

Welcome to the fourm.
