B is for Best Show on Earth! 13. Everthing Else!

The last of the PW show posts, and it's an eclectic mix! Then there's Sandown Park, a parcel from Brian Berke, two, no three from Jon Attwood, several from Peter Evans, the London show and, and, and . . . !

Starting with those figures which didn't get shot in the correct thematic posts! From the left a small-scale Hong Kong farmer copied from Britains, a Matchbox (NOT HG Toys!) Adventure 2000 space figure, Chromoplasto Mountie from Italy and a Hong Kong knight in need of a sword!

 

Then we have an Answer Mage/Wizard/Vizier/Magician (the alternative to 'Answer Robots' - was there also a clown?), missing his wire answer-wand, and an African warrior who may be Spanish-made, and may be a native American Indian? In front is another smallish Hong Kong milkmaid copy.

 

Plants which accrued as everything was sorted out, the interesting one here is the Merit copy stacking fir, the broken Lego fir, though, is in red plastic under the paint, they were usually green.

 

One of the favourite pieces of the whole show, buried in Trevor's bag was the teeny-tiny two-bar fence, I may have another somewhere, in a different colour I think, but it's literally an N-gauge compatible piece!

 

The stook of corn from Charbens is also useful as there are a series of posts in the medium queue (the long queue, but pretty-much ready!) on stooks, bales and ricks/stacks, but this wasn't in them, so that's a box ticked!

 

The well is useful, without checking the old posts on the subject, I think this is the post-Blue Box copy so NMP or Holly? But it has its bucket, which is the important thing! The other three are additions to bits boxes, but the windmill is in a new colour-way I think?

 

The rest! It really is all grist to the mill and there's a home for all of it somewhere! The Dracula novelty teeth will go with the other body-part novelties we saw a few Christmases back (a bag which has already been added to several times), I intend, once everything is reunified and sorted (a three-month job; I've done it before), to re-run that 'season' in the same order, but looking at the expanded samples of everthing we saw then!

 

It was a fantastic show, there wasn't enough time to buy for catching-up with old faces, and there wasn't time to chat properly for buying! Thanks to all for everything last May; Andreas Dittmann, Gareth Morgan, Michael Mordant-Smith, Peter Evans, Brian Carrick, Trevor Rudkin and Adrian Little, with special thanks to Brian, Peter and Paul Morehead for organising it all again . . . and it's only 10-and-a-half months till the next one!
