Hey guys sorry for replying late. and yes bradley i did go.
I higly recomend going next year I picked up absolute bargains.
It was in St michaels parnish hall 268 high street ashburton near malvern, mt waverly, glen iris and ashwood.
For starts its 3 bucks admission (obviously for hall hire) and families free. 10 am to 1 pm admisson.
I guess it was a bunch of guys from the club selling all their old or unwanted models for dirt cheap prices.
I know that some guys i met at the 2007 model expo in sandown picked up things for half price, which i did as well. I got a $50 tamiya 1/35 centurion MK.III for $25. My brother picked up 2 tamiya 1/35 German Pak guns for $10.
But the most amazing thing was 1/35or1/32 (forgot scale) planes going for $40!!!!!! there was an F-15C that had to be 60cm in length for $40. My dad is spewing tonight he did not buy it. Ey even some old guy gave me a modle magazine and a spare box (He told me the name of it but i forgot now) with RAAF decals in it for a 1/72 F-18 and some american ones all for free.
Everything was a bargain there, Try and get around next year.
