Model of the Year (MOY)

MOY is a year-end showdown for every model that has won a Best of Show award in a Theme Contest (points) or a Best Overall award in a Special Contest (non-points) within the same calendar year, separated by divisional level.

Qualifying models must be present at the December meeting to compete in head-to-head judging, but the builder need not attend if unable.
