Trying not to sound thick but what is SSIG?Sent from me to you
It stands for Super Special Interest Group, it's like a group build where you have a group build where people get to build kits or dioramas on as certain subject or model , SSIG this year was d day, operation market garden, and WWI , you get a whol year to build something around those fields , if you scrol down the the forums there is a section that will describe it in more detail :)

Heard of group build. Thanks. Sounds good fun. I couldn't do this one as my history and war knowledge is non existent!

You don't have too know about the war just pick a kit and build it for it , there are quite a few airfix kits out that have d day on the box so that will help you , there is also a couple of diorama sets out now with all you need to build a diorama

To give you an idea take a look at some of the completed and under construction section in the SSIG forum :)

I've been wanting one of these since Special Hobby announced them, several years ago. One of the first Matchbox kits I ever built was their HueyCobra, back in the early 70s, and I've been hoping for a decent, new-tool 1/72 kit since then. Got this on eBay, arrived this morning from Poland; looks superb.

I built the matchbox one when I was a kid if I remember rightly it was a light brown plastic :) I hope you start this one soon
