I'm going, and I'm bringing about ten guys from my club too! We never miss this show. We fill an SUV and a van, set the cruise for 75, and barrel 2 hours to Wayne. It's a great show.

Just got back,couldn't stay too long as I have to go to work this afternoon.This had to be one of the biggest turnouts I have ever seen here.The parking lot was jammed at 9:30,many,many impressive entries.The 1/6 scale guy was back with his Shermans,and a Puma 234 this time !!.There was a giant Russian Bear with spinning props,and many others.A lot of Fantasy-Sci-Fi stuff also.Sorry no pics but I'm sure there will be some.Matt Toms bought some great stuff,and I saw Redleg Mike,I'm sure others were there.Having got my fill from the Greatmodels sale,I confined myself to tools and refrence materials.

As always, I had a great time at the show. I shot close to 400 photos. Just need the time to sort, separate, and edit them, before posting them to the site. I'll break them down to armor, aircraft, ships, autos, and miscellaneous, and send them to the respective site editors.

I also just returned from another great MosquitoCon. You Jersey boys really know how to throw a party! Saw lots of friends, found some super vendors, enjoyed looking at all the wonderful stuff on the tables. The perfect weather topped things off. Congratulations and hats off guys! Keep up the good work!

I cordially invite all you show exhibitors and attendees to bring that stuff to Long Island for the May 5-6 NoreastCon regional "shootout" so the LI locals can be similarly treated to your fine, fine handiwork.

Particularly LUVed the BIG stuff on display at this and previous shows. THAT'S DEDICATION! Anyone with similar pieces of armor, artillery, ships or planes who'd like some dedicated space to show that stuff off here, please post back or contact us through the web site at http://lisms.org and we'll see what we can arrange.
