Nurnberg Report, variuos Brands.

I had a quick blast around a few stands and managed to take a few photos.

First off was Lion Toys who manufacture our Trucks Of Ireland Range We have decided to start stocking their standard range which will be up on the website in the coming weeks. As always Lion Toys are making improvements to their casting/detail and adding new Trucks to the range. The quality of printing on some of their latest models is fantastic, We look forward to seeing our latest model the Seabridge Scania R420 which is arriving in March. We also hope to announce the next Model in our range within the next few weeks. Below you can see our Shamrock Logistics Model displayed on their stand....they only show the best!


Next on the hit list was sunstar, They have some great models arriving in 2009. The ever popular VW Camper 1/12th will have 3 new livery's, The photo below being the funkiest of the lot!

They will also have a new 1/12th VW beetle in black, very impressive looking as you can see from my (yet again) bad photo....

Next was Neo Models. these are a range of models made by a company called replicars. they are very limited and are made from resin. The doors or bonnet don't open as it is resin but the quality of the casting and interior more than makes up for that. We stock some of their 1/43rd range but will soon start stocking their 1/18 range. these models are not cheap, they will retail at about €185.00 but they are more than worth it. They also sell out, a lot of the range we were looking at in Nurnburg was already sold out!

So that's most of my report for moment, I have more to put up but need to finalise a few things first. As I mentioned earlier we do have new ranges in the pipeline (some very different from our current ranges) hopefully I'll be able to post some information soon...
