Can't believe 5 years have flown by since the 1st show!!

Date: July 6th, 2019, Saturday
Time: 09:00 to 17:00
Venue: Argyle International Airport Hotel

Near Terminal 1 at Hongqiao Airport. Shanghai Metro Line #10 is about 50 meters away.
It's never too late to join in.

There will be two (2) Special models for this year's show. They will only be available at the show!! They are LIMITED EDITION models, complete with a numbered card.

I cant make it...Unlike the many hundreds here on this forum who are planning to attend that show in China, I had to choose between your show or the the 5th annual East Mongolia Collectables Show held in several tents just outside Ulaanbaatar.. Mongolia won out...

LOL...would love to go, but I would most likely get caught in secondary and then off to a camp for a lifetime of hard labor! LOL

If it was held in Hong Kong maybe but my biggest problem is getting Visa for entering mainland China..

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

5 years already? Wow...

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

You may enter visa free for 144 hours if you produce a confirmed ticket onto a 3rd country.

Why no photos?

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

No pictures because probably nobody showed up.

HA HA maybe that Virgin 1:100 747 for sale there...

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

It was quite busy from the pics I've seen.

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

Tracked down some pics.

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

Was crowded...thats for sure!

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

Yes but is that it for tables two rows?? something makes me think so:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

Looks like a 1:500 crowd to me! Folded arms and looking at cell phones, not a good sign! LOL

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

Was it a national remembrance day or Mao's death anniversary ?, They are almost all in dressed in black.

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

Looking at cell phones, is the new scourge of the 21st century.

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

This is the third time I attended...1st, 3rd and now 5th annual.

Smaller room compared to the first show, for sure, but the foot traffic was constant. Visitors were walking out with models and memorabilia, a lot of enthusiastic conversations. I think its a positive sign on how model airplanes popularity is growing in China.

Now, if you're trying to compare it to the more established shows, though I have never been to any other but probably no comparison. Give it time...all has to start from somewhere. ;)

Starallianceflyer, thanks for your take on the show and confirmation on collectors buying.

HTF200, LOL So true. I was thinking of that Eminem video, "will the real Slim Shady please stand up"

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

I am still trying to get clarification on the how many rows of tables..It looks like mostly 400 scale models in the pics. Tiny venue??

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

Like you, I wish someone would post more pictures of the show or mention how many vendors were in attendance! I am wondering if it was just a factory worker appreciation day with a good Mongolian Barbecue! LOL

Re: 5th Annual East China Collectibles Show
 

The Annual Back Door Model Collectible Show had more attendance but there are no pics.
