Should be a good showing for 1/48 modelers. Tamiya will likely have their iS2 on display, and Itlaeri should have something giong with their SdKfz 232 6 Rad. What about Blue-Cat? Will they be there with the SdKfz 10 ? Anyone know anything ?

A little too early for predictions of what will be there I think. Probably more 'leaks' around Valentine's Day(2/14).
I gotta find a way to get in one of these shows someday!
Cheers!

My apologies. Thought it was held a little later in the spring. No mention on Armorama event calender and no postings of our news staff attending this year. Those are kind of my 'triggers' for getting the excitement level up for the show.
So is any Staff attending this year's show?

Cheers for any coverage and photos shared!

There was some talk over on ML about Tamiya perhaps announcing a 1/35 kit of the JGSDF Type 10 (Fujimi released a 1:72 scale version last year)- one guy said they had an example at one of their factories- fingers crossed for announcement!

if that jeep is based on the same mold as the Cyberhobby SAS one, then its worthless. Maybe they fixed the issues... if not, then they will have another dud.

Modell Trans Modellbau actually has a large listing of new kits and conversions, but yes they all are Braille scale. So many interesting new 1/72 scale releases, so little time and money! "NEUHEITIN" on the Modell Trans Modellbau site for the new releases.

The primeportal link is great. Good to see the new Trump releases. Any expert opinion on the BTR-70 and the MTV with CPK?
