I'm excited about this GB!  Even though many are out of there comfort zone, which I'm to a little, it will be a great exhibit of some early armor thats not usually seen Yes  I to am going over the stash.  Thinking of the Somua S35, Bren Carrier, or maybe an AMR-UE, maybe even a Pz Bef Wg 1 "Kliener" (initial), then again what about a "Bison" Pz 1?  Have also just ordered a Vickers MK VI B.

YAY!  Its not North Africa, but its a close, close second!! 

In anticipation that BITW would win, yesterday I placed an order with LuckyModel for a Bronco A13 Mk I (CB 35025) which has markings perfect for the BEF during the Battle of France!  It will be my first Brit armor of any kind!

Well, ( big gulp), I will have to go far out of my comfort zone for this. Literally... I have a surgery for my right index finger possibly looming on the horizon....by early next week I will have the results of my MRI...If I am able I would like to join you good people with a Char B 1b.

Should be a fantastic GB

Me too. This will be my first attempt at French armor and my little Hotchkiss 39 is super tiny. It will easily fit in the palm of my  hand. The tracks are super microscopic.

Oh boy, looking forward to build my first French armor... I am very determined to prove that my armor has actually fired a shot.  Bill's Pz III was probably the target.  Eric, thanks for the update!
