Lol !!! Come on...New Jersey is not that far away. We have people from all over the USA coming and international people from as far as Australia! If you love statues, kits, great movie art/collectibles and want to see painters work their magic right in front of your eyes, you will love the show and won't regret making the trip. Not to mention how many rare products you will find (Sideshow, Bowen, Hot Toys, garage kits, etc.), with some at amazing prices.

Hey if Jonh Pinkerton aka PinkertonFx is there; could someone kick him in the nuts for all the people he's ripped off? I know he still attends shows and this sounds like the kind of thing he might be at

It is acceptable for attendees to submit their buildup kit(s) for the exhibit and request that they NOT be included in the contest. Contest entries may include any custom painted model kit that celebrates movies, TV, comic books, video games, or fiction in general.

Gold, Silver and Bronze awards will be given for selected entries as decided by the judges (i.e., “open judging system”). There are no categories for these awards and no competing between modelers. However, there will be categories for kids (12 and under) and teenagers.

In addition, there will be “Supplemental Awards” where contestants will compete for trophies and can win awesome kits as prizes.

We are coming very close to the show date and there are only a few vendor tables left (only $75 each) for the 2012 show on Saturday, August 4th. So, anyone interested in a table, please contact us ASAP: https://jerseyfestfair.com/?page_id=35

If you have a big collection and a lot you want to sell, this is a good opportunity to make some money while having a fun day.

Thanks,
Dave

So if I may ask, since I'd be going down for mostly the Godzilla parts, is it all just kits for sale or can I find some bandai and other Godzilla merchandise?

There will be dealers with Japanese collectibles, but I'm really not sure about Godzilla action figures, etc. As you know, there will be a lot of kits and pre-painted statues.

Sounds worth the trouble to me. Those kits and statues are incredible to look at but often out of my price range.

I just got back from the show. GREAT TIME. I really enjoyed the painting demos by the pros. They were enjoyable and informative. Awesome displays and a great vendor turnout.

I finally obtained a Black Heart Enterprises Life-Size wall hanger of the Iconic Harryhausen Cylcops. I am soooo friggin excited about this as these have been sold out for some time. While there was an impressive vendor turnout with some eye pleasing tables, Black Heart Enterprises was IMHO the most impressive vendor at the show. The owner George was there and he was a very nice guy. If you haven't heard them here's their site and check em out: https://www.blackheartmodels.com/

Here are the pics:
