That's a healthy ratio of about 1:6. I'm way off that. :whistle:

Lol! :giggles:

So it looks like this might be good to go then, as we have 9 expressing interest and maybe a couple of others as well. That's really cool. Hopefully between now and the new year we might get a bit more interest as well.

It'd make a fun start to the new year for certain, and it'd great to see a few different genres being build. :hmm: I don't actually have an Tamiya kits in the stash at the moment, so I think I'll have to rectify that ASAP.

A great idea for a group build.

If I may, I’d shorten the time. We have gotten lax running these.as they drag out longer and longer. Also, need a active GB mod to keep it moving, hammer down on miscreants who openly flaunt guidelines, etc.

Just my nickel fifty from the couch and Covid....

Well if we have all of next year to build then I might be good to go. I have more Tamiya kits in the stash. But like Stik, my ability to actually finish a GB is low. I still have to finish the Viper for the Jet GB. :headslap:

Hey Lyle - I know you're ill and all, but you appear to have edited my post rather than quote it :rofl: (either that or I've posting whilst I was asleep again :hmm: )

But yeah, we can tighten up the timelines if you wish...

Well... a Tamiya kit straight OOB (yeah right!) might be just what I need to get rolling next year. :hmm:

That's kind of my thought behind the GB to be honest.
