I went to Hobby-X in CPT last year. Turned out it was more arts & crafts than anything else. No scale modelling stuff at all!

If you want to score points with SWMBO, it might be worth the trip, but be warned... you might be bored! :-) :-) :-)

MockTurtle,

Go and have a look it you can, from what I've heard so far there will be models on display and stalls selling model related gear

Lets hope so, as it normally comes to CPT later in the year.

MockTurtle, if you go, takes pics if you see any scale related stalls.

Unfortunately I will only be able to go on the last day, the sunday, as I will be overseas business. Hopefully they have not packed away most of the stuff by then.

Anyhat, I'm definitely going to attend. I'll bring my digicam along to take pics - hopefully there'll be interesting subjects.
