COMPETITION DETAILS

In today’s fast paced world with time short and our next generation being caught up in the world of video games, PCs and iPods, Vaggs Hobbies is encouraging those with a fancy to build a model, enter, have some fun and maybe win themselves a prize and accolade as the Shires best ‘out of the box’ model maker in their class!

General Rules

The competition is open to modellers of all ages, with particular attention to first time/amateur builders, including a ‘Young Builders Award’ for modellers aged 15 and under.

The competition is strictly ‘out of the box’ model building. As we appreciated the amazing detail our fellow scratch builders can create, Vaggs Hobbies is encouraging up and coming model makers to have a go . . .

Entries will open on Monday the 1st of March 2010, and close on Sunday the 11th of April 2010. A special VIP Judging night with the winners announced at the Vaggs Miranda store on Wednesday the 14th of April 2010.

Entry Fee

Entry is free when you spend more than $40.00 on plastic kits and will include a free 1/35th scale Italeri Hummer Stinger kit (Limited to the first 50 entries only) to build and enter in the special Hummer Build-off. Entrants will also receive a 10% discount on glues, paints and brushes during March 2010.

If you already have a model you would like to submit to our VIP Judges, an entry fee of $10.00 for each model entered is required on application.

Prize & Awards

There will be awards and prizes for each class including the ‘Young Builders Award’ and a prize for the best Italeri Hummer Stinger submitted in the ‘Hummer Build-off’
