Who all plans to go with Steve, Ben and I to the MMD open house on Crosby? Let's meet around lunchtime...

Also - Steve - what the heck is the product number for the "surrendering german DML kit you have? I can't seem to locate it...

As much as I'd like to, I can't make Squadron on Friday, but I will be at the show Saturday

I'll be going over around 11:00am instead of the afternoon... a conference call with my guys in Latin America popped up. Steve - maybe I'll see you there... if not, I'll see you at the show on Saturday. I'm entering 6 dioramas

1) Marooned Pirate (1/32 scale)
2) LCT unloading sherman (1/35)
3) LCVP in supply (1/35)
4) Bavarian Steelworks - April 1945 (1/35)
5) Americans at Anzio (1/35)
6) Captain America vs Red Skull (sci-fi 1/12 scale)

See everyone there!

What are the show hours on Saturday? It's at the Resistol Arena in Mequite, right?

Opens at 9 and goes until 4 I believe. I'll be running some errands in the morning and then hope to get their around noon. This way I can check the models before judging begins and then go shopping, at 2PM there's an airbrush 101 class, wonder if that will be good. It'll probably be very good for me because I don't have much experience with my AB yet. See you guys there.

How good are the deals at Squadron over this weekend supposed to be? They're open tomorrow and Sunday as well right? Wonder if they'd have the Bandai Batmobile or the DML FLAK 36, let me know if you see either of those and prices for them if you guys could, thanks!

I think Keith wiped out all the cheap stuff :-) :-)

I looked at boxes for all the big kits, but all were shrink wrapped. Didn't read any of the requests as Keith caught me by surprize when he changed time up. I remember seeing a kit of a Flak 88 by Dml but which one? Oh, by the way, DML stuff is unlisted mainly. When you enter actual warehouse area, take hard left into racks and go down almost to the end for DML Trumpeter is also in the same location but up against the wall If you go to Squadron, you will never to make it to show. Remember, Squadron is open on SUNDAY---show ain't !! Didn't see any deals that jumped out and bit me like a Hood or a BR-52 special.

Might go Sunday then, will see what I find at the show tomorrow. I remember there being pretty good deals on simple and small kits, looking more for 1/72 scale tomorrow and maybe some figures.
