The Shizuoka hobby show is one of the biggest hobby (plastic model, rail transport modelling, RC, cap gun, toy etc...) trade fair held in Shizuoka Japan in May every year since 1959. The host organization is Shizuoka model teaching materials cooperative (Tamiya, Aoshima, Hasegawa). It is now being watched with interest by hobby traders and fans in the world.

48th Shizuoka hobby show 2009 was held May 14 -17 in Twin Messe Shizuoka. 82 companies participated in this trade fair, and so many new products were exhibited this time.
My friend Mr. Yamanobe went to there and took a lot of photos. I report this hobby show with his photos.
