Shanghai International Miniature Model ExhibitionProfile
The Shanghai International Miniature Art & Model Show (GMHS) is a comprehensive, specialized exhibition event centered on miniature models and collectible toy culture. The show focuses on the display and sale of miniature‑related brand products from both domestic and international markets, striving to establish a platform for in-depth exchanges among model creators, brands, and enthusiasts, thereby advancing miniature art from the realm of recreational toys toward professional artistic and cultural‑industry dimensions.
Guided by the founding principle that “miniature models are more than toys—they are an art form,” GMHS continuously explores the expressive boundaries of miniature art by integrating traditional handcraft techniques with cutting‑edge technologies such as modern 3D printing.
The Shanghai International Miniature Art & Model Show (GMHS) provides a standardized, high‑quality exhibition space for niche cultural communities, effectively fostering the cross‑border dissemination of collectible toy culture and the healthy development of its industrial ecosystem. Looking ahead, the show will continue to attract international brand resources and digital interactive technologies, further enriching product‑experience formats and helping China’s miniature art and model industry reach new heights.
Since its inception, the Shanghai International Miniature Art & Model Show (GMHS) has steadily established itself as a key showcase and industry benchmark in the domestic miniature art and model sector, aiming to create a premier event for collectible toys that combines local identity with a global perspective.

Shanghai International Miniature Model ExhibitionRange
Miniature Landscapes: These include scaled-down models of real-world scenes—such as urban architecture, natural landscapes, and historical sites—emphasizing either faithful reproduction or artistic interpretation. They are often enhanced with lighting, set pieces, and other effects to heighten their visual appeal.
Mechanical Models: Primarily inspired by science fiction, these models are categorized into kit-style mechanical models (requiring assembly by the user) and ready-to-play finished models. Made predominantly from PVC, they highlight articulation and intricate detailing.
Figures and Statues: Figures: Typically crafted from PVC, they encompass scale human figures, chibi-style characters, and lifelike replicas, prioritizing mass production and ease of handling; some may be paired with scene-based dioramas. Statues: Made from materials such as resin or polyresin, they offer finer details and are produced in limited quantities. These require manual sanding, assembly, and painting, positioning them as high-end collectibles.
Tokusatsu Models: Based on tokusatsu films—featuring monsters, superheroes, and similar themes—these models employ diverse materials and emphasize thematic expression and scene fidelity. They frequently incorporate dynamic elements or special-effects designs.
Powered Models: Includes miniature four-wheel-drive cars, remote-controlled vehicles, and other movable models that achieve motion through electric drive or remote-control mechanisms, emphasizing interactivity and entertainment value.
Realistic Models: Scale models based on real-world objects—such as vehicles, military equipment, or civilian infrastructure—either assembled from kits or offered as finished products. These prioritize accuracy in proportion, detail, and overall realism.
Creative and Artistic Models: Encompass miniature artworks conceived by artists or creators, drawing on unique ideas, cultural themes, or experimental techniques. These take diverse forms and may integrate multiple materials, processes, or technologies.
