Good show; I spent about four hours there. I bought nine boxes of plastics (mostly 1/72) from several time periods, as well as a nice selection of some John Jenkins French and Indian War figures that were on my "to buy" list. Did anyone else go? |

Too far for me :( Always hit the West Coaster in march, though. The wallet squeals :/ |

I was there. The main room seemed a bit light to me. I did see some Scruby's in the original packaging, which I had never encountered before. Didn't pick up anything for myself, but did finance my son's purchase of a Higgins boat for his GI's. |

Used to go every year but fewer and fewer figures from the primarily UK mfgs I collect. If for to the point where I was seeing the same sellers with the same stuff every year and could get through all the rooms in a few hours. BTW, if you don't go to the rooms you get the heavily picked over remnants of the previous 3-4 days. Unless you have connections or are very lucky you never see the good stuff. My brother went and did fairly well but be is one of those well connected people. |
