Hi All,
Behind the scenes, plans continue, and we can now confirm more details for the Armortek Customer Day on 28th September.
It seems that many of you have already planned your trip and it looks like we are going to have the best gathering of Armortek models and customers to date at this event! Not only will this be an opportunity to meet other owners and share your build experiences, but also to display your models to the visiting public.
We will be located in the Tamiya hall and will have plenty of room to display and run the models. We have now confirmed that the top prize for best model in show, to be judged by the panel of museum experts, will be a ride in a Main Battle Tank to take place during Autumn Half term (w/c 26th October 2013).
Access to the museum to unload your models will be either Friday evening up to 7pm or from 8am on the Saturday, further details on this arrangement will be confirmed nearer the time.
On the Saturday you will be able to stay in the Museum until 6pm in order to have the opportunity to take photos of your models with their life size counterparts!
We will be joined by traders selling 1/6 scale accessories and related items, 'a real life Craftsman's Market'.
(note to traders, please contact us directly for more information).
There will be 'Auction lots' of Armortek models (kits/part builds/prototypes) details to be confirmed!
A running Centurion Model is going to be raffled, tickets will be available between Tankfest and the event, with the draw taking place on the Saturday. All proceeds from the raffle to be donated to the Tank Museum.
We will continue to post further details of the event as these are confirmed, including more information on the 'talks and tours of the workshops' that will be available.
We are now going to start a list for all those coming. If you wish to come, please can you e-mail directly (

*The Tank Museum are keen that we have as many models on show as possible, they in turn are promoting the day as the 'Armortek Show' and are going to be publicising the event at the Museum and through their website and social media. Entrance tickets for the day will be issued free to all customers bringing a model and in addition, for every additional model you bring, a family member or friend can also come in free. All others, including friends and family will be charged at the discounted group rate. Return free entry will be given for the following day (Sunday 29th). Your passes will also entitle you to a 10% discount in the restaurant.
but I look forward to say hello to all and experience all the fantastic Armortek tank models in action.
