Today I went to the Hobby Show. Lots of model trains, RC stuff, models, etc. FOV was there. Absolutely nothing new. There was FOV and Bravo Team on display, but again nothing new and the representative for FOV was just there. She really didn't have a clue. Dragon was there. Nothing notable. Revell was there and they will be releasing another '60s Cold War Renwal 1/32 kit which I had never seen before. It's a truck and trailer with some type of 'cruise' missile which was launched from the trailer. It would go well with the atomic cannon. Revell was also releasing a Higgins type boat, 1/32, which is a Navy Seal retrieval type of boat. Overall, nothing really exciting. Hopefully the big NY Toy Show early next year will have something....

there's supposed to be a brand new 1/18 plane announced for release by Merit at the show. I gather you didn't see it. It will probably be announced tomorrow.

No I didn't. I am all too often focused on just 1/32. Sorry.
