Stash Pig; A group build proposal

[paulh]

Not sure if this the right place for this- but there doesn't appear to be a thread for propsals on the GB board
Anyway, I'm just putting some feelers out to you all:

I'm sure we all have at least one absoloute pig of a kit in the stash - you know the kind of thing bought whilst drunk/blind/ as a joke, or possibly even received as a present from an unsuspecting relative/loved one (my own is Glencoe Models 1/32(?) scale BTR-50 )

I'd be interested to know what people feel about a possible GB of their own sows ear? Whether its OoB, minor tweaks or major rebuild would be up to individuals.

Regards

dragon trumpeter and Tamiya, Nope no dogs in my stash neat idea tough

Interestimg Paul! Let's see what we get for takers! I might have something to fit the bill.

I've got 4 or 5 kits that would fit in this.......tempted to put them all in the same dio!!!!!

Nah...Just those Arii,and HB kits I picked up last year.....still haven't sold 'em!!!!! .....Oh and maybe a couple of F82's as well

Paul, i have the old Tamiya Pz.II....not a newer box...its in an old tiny faded box that was white turned yellow. Thats only one i got but i could try my first rust bucket with it or tha like.

I hear you mence...I think if this moves forward, we should approach it like the Post Apocalyptic GB....open ended in it's own section. Join if you want, finish when you want. I would think there might be the occasional..."nope, this just can't be done" kits and we could have a seperate thread for "Bin Patrol"...LOL!!!! Have people take a shot of their Bin Stash!!

This sounds fun! My little brother has a challenger 1 or 2 that he wants me to build for him - its as old as I am and has many fit issues, so it would be awesome for this. I'm in for sure if we do this

Nemo, cant wait to see that T-67.....sounds like a Pos kit if ever there was one.

my trumpy Ti 67 fits the bill for me, might be neccesary as if the Tamiya IDF Tiran 55 appears it will never get done!

[paulh]

WOW guys have to say I'm more than a little pleasently surpised with the level of support for the idea.
Better get on with finishing a few things first!

Right on Paul! Just give tha word and lets do this!

I've got an MB Models M50 in the stash, might qualify for this, maybe as an Israeli panzerstellung(sp?), or even better, a truly ancient 1/32 Matchbox Lysander, probably has a few bits glued together.

[modelfreak72]

I think I might be able to find something around here that will fit the bill!

[eastrock]

I've just finish the ESCI LAV

[noll]

I really hope we do this . I will have to find another kit to make though, as my little brother's challenger 1 (kit made in 1998) seems to be impervious to plastic cement, super glue, AND putty - I have no idea what the $@%! is going on with it, but its unbuildable.
