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.

Tank of the Year?

Tokens

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.
