COMMENT
he international Toyfair in Nuremberg highlighted a change to
the natural way of things, with the event starting to become more
of a showcase rather than an opportunity to take orders for new
product. This is not surprising considering orders can be emailed
through once the dealers decide what they will stock. Italeri had a
selection of new model kits highlighted, details of which can be found
on the following pages and the only 1:24th scale model for 2016 from
Revell is the MAN fire truck which is an impressive release. The long
awaited Drake trailer and Kenworth plastic model kits should appear
over the summer.
On the diecast front, Conrad held their own exhibition at their
factory where additional Mercedes Benz Arocs models were on show.
NZG highlighted their additional Unimog replicas while WSI and IMC
showcased a number of limited edition decorated models and new
tooling for upcoming models. One new exhibitor in Nuremberg was
Start Scale Models, a Russian company producing 1:43rd scale models
of construction, truck and fire & rescue equipment. As well as the fully
built and finished items, they have introduced a range of model kits,
consisting of both die-cast and plastic parts allowing the
collector/modeller to create something a little different. Also in this
issue, I take a look at the impressive Pierce Velocity pumper from Fire
Replicas, highlight several new MAN Euro 6 trucks and give my
impressions and experience building the Mercedes Benz Arocs tipper
truck from Lego Technic.
Last year at the Gaydon truck show, a number of model builders
came forward to have their models photographed during the
weekend and I am looking for anyone who has not already submitted
a build article relating to the models to please get in touch so I can
plan the upcoming articles for the next 2 issues of the magazine. There
was a limited response to my requests in the last issue for articles on
1:24th scale builds and without contributions from you, there will not
be enough articles to fill the pages of the
magazine going forward. I am also looking for
any producers of custom parts and accessories
to get in touch with details of what you offer so
I can begin working on a new section in the
magazine to highlight your developments so
please drop me an email or give me a ring.
I look forward to hearing from you.
