Amazing, the exhibitors are the same as they were this year, and they will even be occupying the same stands!

The synical might say that the website is simply a carbon copy of the last one with a new web address []. I think I'll register modelexpo2006.co.uk in my name, and then sell it back to them [}]

It's good that it's going to be on again, but I will be thinking hard before going, as this year's expo was a bit dissapointing. Hopefully this one will have a lot more sellers and less of the corporate displays of cars which seemed aimed more at resellers than the public. A big market of stuff I can spend my money on, that's what I would like to see, just like exhibitions used to be..

Nothing cynical about it Jozza. Click the link and they haven't even changed the HTML page Title (blue bar the the top).

I though the expo was good bearing in mind it was their first crack at it. Next years I would expect to have double the trade stands and some more of the big boys there (ie : Ripmax etc) and more people flogging kit.

Hehe, they even have the same spelling mistoke on the site too, see if you can spot it [] (Though I can't talk, can't even spell sinnikal (see above) [])

I agree what you say for a first effort, I think that there was a big shortage of goodies available though, and some of the exhibitors listed only had a part of an importer's stand (like Parma, I was hoping to get some real good info on using Faskolor, but all they had there was a small poster). On the plus side, the helicopter flying displays outside were cracking, I was well impressed with the way those guys can handle the copters.

I think I will go for day 2 next time though, so I can see the reaction to day 1 on the forums before comitting myself.
