Now a very important note in own matter:
Figures from all eras and sections (civilian, military, Fantasy, round or flat) are admitted for the competition. In agreement with the museum we don’t approve figures with power-glorifying, porn or extreme right wing contents.
The Organization reserves the right to not approve such exhibits for the competition. Here we ask for sense particular our foreign visitors. The law position in Germany for the representation of national socialist symbolism is absolutely clear.
This also applies to the goods offer in the Dealer area.
