Plastic Posse Podcast
The Plastic Posse Podcast is a bi-weekly podcast about Scale Modeling. This includes all genres, scales, and ability levels. From Warhammer 40K to Gundam to Aircraft to Armor and even Science Fiction, our show features in depth interviews with the best guests, as well as discussions that take a deeper look into the hobby and our motivation for it.
Our motto is "There is NO wrong way to enjoy Scale Modeling!" Hosted by TJ Haller, Jensen Taylor, John Bonnani, Grant Mayberry, and Scott Gentry, the Posse is all about the Social and Community Aspects of this hobby! Bottom line - we want to be positive, have some fun, and you will too as you listen in with us.

Episode 183: Realistic vs Artistic + Rocky Mountain Expo
Jensen is missing, so four of the five of us are here for a fun, straightforward (albeit shorter) episode on Models and Model Show trends in the hobby. Are artistic models ruling the roost in 2026, or do more realistic models own the day? Why? What are some of the factors that cause the hobby to lean one way or the other?
Also, Scott talks about the Upcoming Rocky Mountain Expo being held this weekend May 22/23, 2026 in Salt Lake City, UT. Why is RME different and what are more of the core values that make it unique compared to other shows in the US?
