MTSC attends many shows both in the USA and abroad each year. We try to visit a wide variety of shows including Militaria Shows, Wargaming Conventions, Historical Figure Shows, Modelling Shows and Industry Trade Shows as well as the regular Toy Soldier shows. It gives us a chance to meet our customers, put a face to the name and promote our business. We also discover new and exciting products. Shows are a great way to meet fellow collectors, view and discover new products. Look at wonderful displays of figures and learn new things. We encourage anyone with an interest in these hobbies to attend the shows in their area. National Shows of note include the OSTN Show in Chicago, The East Coast Toy Soldier Show, The MFCA Show, The Chicago MMSI, Weekend of Heroes, The London Show, The Bad Nuehiem show in Germany show and the West Coaster. These shows typically draw collectors and vendors from all over the world and are considered top events within the hobby.
