My thoughts on Chigago (1 Viewer)

[Mitch]

Guys...

This has been the first time I have been on here when the chigago show was open and, have been amazed at the way it works on the forum and the way the releases are kindly sent for those not fortunate enough to go.

This show has produced some great releases Flak 41, Tiger 1 and, enough rail stock to start your own railway, V2's Panzer 1 command tanks and the red baron..... Oh, nearly forgot the mother of all sailing ships the Victory.

Its been a blast to share this with everyone this weekend and from seeing what has been released I think IMO Its got to be the best in terms of releases from all the manufacturers.

Can anyone else think of a better show??

Mitch mate,
Have you ever been in Toy Soldier Heaven? Then it is a must that you make at least one visit to Chicago in a lifetime.
I have spent five magnificent days meeting new mates, catching up with old ones, room trading, Seminars, Luncheons and Dinners. Averaging about four hours sleep per night.
Whether I get back to another one from the Land of OZ happens or not,
I can always look back on the 30th Anniversary Chicago as one of the best highlights in my short Toy Soldier collecting career.
Start thinking and planning about 2011 Chicago now.
Cheers Howard

PS Met a remarkable young man named Jake (Lewey Gun Vick) yesterday and he gives me confidence that this hobby will grow strongly.
