Hi Mark, Gill,

I do consider driving up there. Is it possible to bring the Panther to show it at your stand for a day? Would that be appreciated?

Regards,

Marcel

Hello Marcel

Thank you for your kind offer and we would be very pleased to see you at the show. As it is our first time however, we are not familiar with the set up, and would prefer this year to meet the organisers and aquaint ourselves with the show, before making any other arrangements. It may be possible to attend with RAG Militärmodellbau/IG Militärmodellbau, I am sure someone on this forum may be able to help with this.

It is a special honor when Armortek in Germany has a booth at the fair!
yes it was a very nice day at the fair
The King Tiger is a class of its own.
Now I have to save some money quickly,
or win the lottery.
regards Olaf

Had a great few days, just wish I had about 20 grand to spend there. Thanks to Mark and Gill. Just a few of the 200 photos and videos I took. I agree with Chris they do put us in the shade. There were two model rail layouts from the UK, one from Scotland and one from Liverpool.

Dennis.

> Can we have one in the UK please.

I guess our version is the Model Engineer exhibition at Alexandra Palace:

http://www.londonmodelengineering.co.uk/

It's good to see the German engineering spirit is alive and well.

I do wonder if all British kids now just live in a virtual world of Twitter/Facebook/Xbox/AngryBirds :oops:

I'm certainly going to try and keep my grandson interested in making things with his hands, rather than using his game controller :twisted:

The Alexandra Palace show is a very poor substitute generally for this German Show, I wish we had something as interesting. Has anyone visited Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg?
