Just got my entry sorted picked up a 234/2 Puma in an auction on evil bay for £16:50 will post a piccy when it turns up.

Nice one Scottie, should be good in your hands:smiling4:

Hi all , so I'm going to overstretch myself and commit to this if you don't mind.cheers.

More than welcome Brad :thumb2:

Pinch, punch its the first of the month. So attention all you animal lovers this is your five month reminder of this wonderfully supported GB. This will enable non stash kit hoarders to order up their kits especially if coming from the far east and being delivered by Parcel-farce. If you order now they might just get it delivered in time. Thankyou for looking in and permission to carry on

 

[Jim R]

Already have plans in hand for this wildlife inspired extravagansa!

I am hoping to go large - currently leaning towards a 1:16 Tiger but also have 3 x 1:25 Tigers and a 1:25 Panther that needs a lot of work......

 

[Jim R]

Hi Simon
1/16 Tiger - my granddaughter could ride in that! Look forward to it.
Jim

 

[SimonT]

:smiling2:It is a fair old size Jim and the box it comes in is enormous

 

[minitnkr]

But will it fit on your lap? PaulE

 

[SimonT]

I may need to fit outriggers to my knees Paul to stabilise it

 

[Allen Dewire]

Thanks for the reminder Stevie!!!

Simon, I had to pick myself off the floor after that one...….

I haven't decided yet, but one idea is the following Tristar kit from the stash,

Done in a European Theater finish...………………………….

Interesting camo Allen. Looks like quite a following on this GB. I built all my Modern German animals last year & at least started all my WWII German animals in years past, the same for US. All that's left in the stash is an M88, M35, 250/9, a couple Hummers, some LAVs, an Apache & a Stalins' Organ, so I'll just kibitz. PaulE

 

[BattleshipBob]

Now i think in darkest Peru theres a big bear type thing called a paddington or in native lingo el Stug

 

[BattleshipBob]

Not to late to join!!
Really enjoying the Marder so looking at the Tamiya Nashorn and new Hummel.

Spent ages but no beasts called Stug lol

 

[SimonT]

Bob call it a stugosaurus and maybe no one will notice :thinking:

 

[Steve Jones]

If you take the lights off you could call it adoyouthinkhesawus.

 

[BattleshipBob]

Boom, boom :tears-of-joy:

 

[Si Benson]

What ! Is that all, I was going to start another build, oh dear well I could have two on the go.
Getting nervous as I've never built a Tiger before. :flushed::flushed::flushed::flushed:
Probably be my first and last :tongue-out3:

 

[Jim R]

How time flies :smiling2:

John,
Well I’ll be in the same boat with two builds on the go....as this starts in October and I’m joining in with Bob’s StuG GB in December! All hail the mighty StuG :nerd:
Don’t worry about the Tiger, it doesn’t have to be an accurate build, as long as you enjoy yourself mate:thumb2:

How time flies :smiling2:

It really does fly doesn’t it:flushed:

 

[rtfoe]
