T is for Toy Fair 2020 Reports - Hornby - Other Makers Products

Hornby (as Hornby Hobbies or Hornby Group) is now one of the big six players in the global toy business (Hasbro, Mattel, Lego, Tomy-Takara, Games Workshop), and as such it probably wasn't a surprise to find 'rival' products on their stand, obviously as distributors, also ensuring they get a percentage of the hobby market their own products don't cover!

Band of Brothers; Black Powder; Black Seas; Bolt Action; Doctor Who; Esci; Exterminate!; Games System; Gaming System; Hornby Group; Hornby Railways; Humbrol Paints; Italeri; Judge Dredd; Master & Comander; Mega-City One; Osprey Games; Small Scale World; smallscaleworld.blogspot.com; Starter Set; Voyage of the Damned; War Games; War Gaming; Wargames; Wargaming; Warlord Games; Waterloo;
Warlord, Bolt Action, Osprey Publishing and Esci-Italeri all here, as thick as thieves, in the worlds of both licensing, and proprietary or sealed-system war-games and rule-sets. It wasn't clear if the diorama was connected to some of the displayed products or just for display interest?

Band of Brothers; Black Powder; Black Seas; Bolt Action; Doctor Who; Esci; Exterminate!; Games System; Gaming System; Hornby Group; Hornby Railways; Humbrol Paints; Italeri; Judge Dredd; Master & Comander; Mega-City One; Osprey Games; Small Scale World; smallscaleworld.blogspot.com; Starter Set; Voyage of the Damned; War Games; War Gaming; Wargames; Wargaming; Warlord Games; Waterloo;
They are also handling Dr. Who, Master & Commander, Blood Red Skies and Judge Dredd stuff, now I clearly didn't spot the Judge Dredd 'thing' as I didn't photograph it properly/separately and don't know what it is, if it's a game with figures . . . .wantone!
