Sorry about no posting the photos up earlier. TankDuel's photo collection seems to have captured it all.

The RC section was quite impressive although i felt a bit let down with the armour on display. They didnt have the M3 Light Stuart this year. The Valentine was back on display however with quite a few more universal carriers.

The re-enactments were pretty good though. I think everyone was caught off guard when the huge simulated bomb went off. All the kids could be heard screaming.

Any clues where in NZ can we view all the tanks on display? Are there any ones around here in Auckland?

If you go to Armistice in Cambridge there's always a much better representation from the Military Vehicle Collectors Club.

Do we know whats currently displayed there at the moment?

Jazza, it's a 2 day event held in November (Armistice day). Haven't been for a few years but you'll see many more vehicles than at MOTAT.
Heres some pics one of our members took (2004 I think) in Gallery 1
