Winterblitz is held every year at the Museum of the American GI. The Museum is located at 19124 Hwy 6, College Station, Texas 77845
The next Winterblitz is Saturday - January 23, 2027!
The Museum hosts numerous military artifacts and vehicles and creates a unique space for a military scale model show.
A fun and laid-back scale model show and contest commemorating armor, figures and misc. military subjects with an emphasis on the artifacts on display at the Museum of the American GI. Winterblitz is a social event, we take the contest serious, we do not take it too seriously. Winterblitz is intended to be an enjoyable day and a Winter break from the post-holiday blues. We strive to be organized, lively and put on an entertaining awards ceremony. We support and promote our sponsors as well as The Museum of the American GI.
Winterblitz ENCOURAGES individuals, groups and clubs to recognize their favorite model(s) on display at Winterblitz!
How it works - you bring a token, poker chip, sticker, etc. to the show and place next to the model(s) that you like. Its informal, its easy. Acknowledge what YOU like.
Let's have fun and grow this side of our model show.
Tank of the Year is a Best of Award. The spirit of Tank of the Year is to each year select ONE type of tank and recognize the BEST scale model version of that tank (or variant of that tank)
ANY SCALE, ANY ERA. The Stuart Lite Tank and chassis - M3/M5/M8

YES!!!!! The event is open to the public. Whether you are a modeler or not, the museum and the model contest is open to the public. The museum charges the normal entry fee and viewing the contest is at NO additional charge (unless of course you are entering the contest). We encourage ALL to come see the museum and the models.
