ALL JAPAN MODEL & HOBBY SHOW 2024
After many many years, we visited yesterday the "Tokyo Hobby Show" or, officially, the "All Japan Model & Hobby Show 2024", in Tokyo Big Site.We had very good time. Plenty of space unlike the Shizuoka show, smooth walk around the booths and very easy to examine the various products on display; exactly how a hobby show is supposed to be. I think it's time they open one more area for modellers to exhibit and I'm confident that that would make the show even more attractive.
We spotted a few exiting forthcoming Japanese aircraft releases, like the new Zero by Fine Molds in 1/48 and the new "Hayabusa" by Arma in 1/72 but Border too is releasing two new Zero kits in 1/35.
Overall great fun and no congestion!
Hasegawa supports ICM and has a special exhibit in its area.
New and re-releases from Hasegawa.
The new Zeros by Border in 1/35.
Pit Road continues with its releases in the ultra tiny 1/700 scale.
Check the price of this "kit"!
Another new release, this time from Mikro Mir, an "Ohka" in 1/32.
The new "Hayabusa" by Arma. Should we expect a price tag in the 5000 Yen range (same price as the new Fine Molds Zero in 1/48) and minimum sales in Japan?
VIC Hobby announced the forthcoming release of a set of paints for IJAAF fighters. Should be interesting.
Fine Molds new Zero at 5000 Yen it beats hands down Edward's Zero currently sold at 10000+ Yen in Japan.

Great stuff and have already pre-ordered the Fine Molds Zero when first offered on HLJ. But still patiently waiting for 1/48 Aichi E13A. George also looking forward to your next publication.
