Not smaller. There were a few empty tables, but the room is the same size with the same number of tables.
A lot of producers didn't have a lot of stock due to resin supply issues, and not being sure what the turn-out was going to be like. But there was plenty to purchase.

Will post more through the week as I get caught up on everything.

It was a great show! Very revitalizing! I could have used another day to do justice to the dealers room. Lots of vintage stuff turned up and there was plenty of modeling materials to look through. Some kit producers brought their new stuff and it was great to see what these kits looked like in person instead of just on the internet. The boxes on the floor had some of the best goodies. I found the dealers friendly and appreciative of the event and having customers. Very glad I attended.

Can't wait until next year. :D

Jimmy had 4 tables, like he always does. Sadly, he brought very few bases this year. I was hoping to restock my stash, but he only had a few of the smaller ones. He did have tons of shifter knobs and various small bits.

Working on the page as we type. I have 131 from the dealer's room uploaded.
So far, 30 on the page.

Hopefully before I will be done before I go to bed.

That was the PLBB reunion table. Manned by Lisa.
It was supposed to happen last year for the 20th anniversary, but we know what happened with that.
She was there with some of the stuff from that by-gone era. The Mystery Machine.
The Yama's Hawg, complete with concept artwork. A bunch of the old badges that PL used to hand out at the show with the goodie bags. The fez. Some monkeys to fling, some brownies. A bunch of photos in a binder.
Wish I would have had more time to sit and visit, but she closed up real early on Sunday when I actually had some free time.

Thought it might have been - thanks for the confirmation.

I never knew the lady (before my time) but I'm pleased to see she appears to be doing well.

Yep, she usually shows up, and helps Cult with his table.
Which is why the reunion table was right beside Cults tables.

I got a question weren't there two rooms I remember looking at there website.?

Yes, two rooms. Though the second room is mostly displays and guests.
The last couple vendors on the page I linked were in Dealer Room B.
The one with the built up styrene kits and old toys, and the one with the mind-blowing dioramas.
