Wow - best ever year at Telford? Yes - very probably!

The organisers, exhibitors, traders and visitors combined to make it a very memerable show - I can only ask - when will this be extended into a long weekend?

Update today with general images of the show and a few updates from manufacturers below. I have a large number of photos on the large scale entries to the competition, as well as those on the Branch and SIG stands which will follow in the coming days...

So - what was new?

Cammett had the new resin Montex Henschel 123 for sale and it looked superb! They also had the Pacific Coast Models range (they are the UK importers) and Telford was the launch platform for their excellent new Fiat G55 - which will appear on the site in the next week, or so, as a review. Very nice!

Also - patterns for a new Spitfire XVI conversion for the Pacific Coast Mk IX.

For more info visit the Cammett Website.


Revell
- the Revell stand had the soon to be released Ju-88 on display - simply stunning.

 

For more info visit the Revell Website.

MDC

Bob from MDC looked busy all weekend selling his excellent wares - no major news at present - but I really must order a Rufe conversion...

For more info visit the MDC Website.

Barracuda Cals

Delighted to meet Roy Sutherland who has launched a new range of decals - with a number of 1:32 sheets for the Spitfire and Thunderbolt.

Roy's website should be live soon!

Alclad II

Obviously not new - but I'm getting quite addicted to their wares and couldn't resist a gratuitous shot from their stand!

For more info visit the Alclad Website.

Eduard

On display were prototype parts for their forthcoming 109E, along with a lovely looking Fokker E111

Wolfpack Design - following on from their debut last year they had yet more goodies on display: - quality looked superb.

XS Models

Andreas Krause of XS Models was displaying on the Air Racing SIG stand and I was able to capture some images of their excellent Yak 11 'Moose' resin kit - which is available in a number of different boxings with markings options.

IsraDecal/IsraCast

These guys continue to support our favourite scale with some stunning Isreali subject - quality of decals and resin is top notch.

For more info visit the IsraDecal Website.

Vector

Not new - but spotted with a view to purchase non-the-less!

For more info visit the Vector Website.

Braz

Spotted on their stand was a neat resin insert for the under nose area of the new Hasegawa P-40.
