The 2008 National Farm Toy Show in Dyersville, Iowa was another exciting "Big Show". The Toy Farmer does an excellent job in hosting the premier farm toy show each year. There is so much to see and do it is hard to see the entire show in just three days.

Toy Tractor Times TV has many of the interesting events of the 2008 National on video for you to watch in this issue. If you have never been to the show or attend every year you will enjoy the video tour of the shows main attractions. TTT has 10 video spots for your viewing pleasure. Reserve sometime over the holidays to watch each episode from the National Toy Show.

This month’s videos take you on a tour of the National Farm Toy Show and bring you the 1/64, 1/16 and Youth display contest winners. We also have footage from the 8th annual Toy Tractor Times Toy Talk dinner, where Bill Walters from Ertl Farm Toys was our guest speaker. Look for several more videos of other National Farm Toy Show displays in the December and January issues of the Toy Tractor Times.

In addition to all of the videos we have several articles on new farm toys introduced at the National. The Ertl Show Room had all sorts of new farm toys on display including the new 1/64 Authentic 7088 Axial-Flow combine from CaseIH. The 2009 John Deere Catalog from Ertl was also introduced this month with all sorts of surprises including a 1/16 Precision 7020 4wd, 1/64 4960, 4955, 4850 set and an all new collection of 1/64 tractors celebrating the 50 states. Spec-Cast also had several exciting new vintage items on hand including a Minneapolis-Moline corn sheller, IH Farmall Cub, and Case grain drill. During the show the Scale Models factory was rolling the Toy Tractor Times 25th Anniversary AGCOSTAR 8360 down the production line.

Stef and I hope you enjoy our coverage of the "Big Show" in Dyersville. Thank you to Dusty Kirschman who filmed and photographed the National Farm Toy Show for Toy Tractor Times. We hope to see you at the 2009 National which will be held the first weekend of November.

Until Next Times....
