Special themes this year...
Proxy Wars of the 20th Century
Throughout the 20th century, global powers often avoided direct confrontation by supporting opposing sides in regional conflicts. These “proxy wars” became defining battlegrounds of ideology, technology, and strategy, shaping modern military history without formal declarations of war between superpowers.
This theme includes all military subjects—aircraft, armor, naval vessels, figures, artillery, vehicles, and dioramas—connected to conflicts influenced or sustained by outside powers. Eligible entries may represent combat, training, logistics, peacekeeping, or occupation forces from proxy conflicts such as Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, the Arab–Israeli conflicts, Angola, Central America, and other Cold War–era struggles.
Models may depict any nation, faction, or era within the 20th century, from frontline combat to rear-area support and civilian interaction, as long as the subject clearly relates to a proxy conflict rather than a direct great-power war.
T & A — Ford Model T and Model A
This theme celebrates two of the most influential vehicles in automotive history: the Ford Model T and the Ford Model A. These iconic automobiles helped put the world on wheels and defined personal transportation in the early 20th century.
Eligible entries include any scale model depicting a Ford Model T (1908 to 1927) or Ford Model A (1927 to 1931) in civilian, commercial, or service use. Subjects may represent factory stock vehicles, period-modified cars, delivery vans, trucks, race cars, or vehicles adapted for military, police, agricultural, or utility roles.
Models may be shown in any historical setting, finish, or condition—from showroom fresh to well-worn working vehicles—and may include figures or dioramas that place the vehicle in its real-world context. All scales and modeling styles are welcome, provided the primary subject is a Ford Model T or Model A–based vehicle..
Other categories include: Military, Aircraft, Ship, Sci Fi, Diorama, Figures, Automotive, Junior, Intermediate and Canadiana. Check the Model Categories for more detailed theme and category descriptions.
