What a feast of things to see at the APMA November 2026 meeting. There was a excellent diecast model display. There was the General display, the theme ‘Cats’ and the Letter ‘P’ . There was a small but quality selection of builds on the tables this month, check out the gallery below to see the diversity and quality of the models on display for our November 2026 meeting.
Special diecast model display
Members presented a wonderful array diecast collectables.
This included rare still sealed in box cars, a commemorative model of Chinese spacecraft, a variety of Batmobiles and scale cars. You can see more of the diecast collectables that was on display in the meeting review gallery below.
Many thanks to the lads for hauling their collectables in so we may have the opportunity to appreciate them too!
