Re: Leipzig toy fair [modell hobby spiel]
Nice! Have fun and post some pics. I'm looking forward to going to my second Syrcon show in Cicero (Syracuse area) on October 15th. It's a small local model show - nothing to big. Last year I bought a raffle ticket and won the Sherman tank kit I'm currently working on. Hopefully, this year I'll win something again.

That looks like a great time! I thought that Nuremberg was the biggest show in the area. Do all the model companies show up to this show with their latest upcoming products?

Not everyone, but big companies nevertheeless - beneath our club stand theres the Berliner Zinnfigurenkabinett for example (great, great kit store - they have literally everything), Ive seen Revell with their newest kits, lots of RC stuff is there, and a lot of model clubs, including us (PMC Riesa e.V.).
Yes., there will be pictures of course, right now Im coming from the build up mess - after on early shift @ work Where is my beer again?

Well, if the European model companies will be there, that should be great! I'm curious to see what they have up their collective sleeves.

This will be exciting to see. I also want to see what the European companies come up with. I'm standing by for pics!
