At ROCON, we have vendors that range from local and regional hobby shops, kit collectors, and those of us who have found that our "stash" has gotten a little too big. You're sure to find the kits, decals, books, paints, tools, and modeling supplies you need for your next project.

Bring the family for a fun day - you don't need to be a member to enjoy the superbly crafted models on display. Get the kids interested in a good old-time "analog" hobby! Modeling helps develop hand-eye coordination, three-dimensional thinking and problem solving, not to mention an appreciation for history.
