Hi guys,
We are looking to fire up the Secret Santa GB again. Here is the link to the main thread
http://cs.finescale.com/fsm/general_discussion/f/9/t/168164.aspx
Basically, here is the idea.
We want to have a GB where we can get as many builders from across the forums to join in and build a kit they were gifted by their Secret Santa.
The premise is you decide on a basic kind of kit, for instance someone may state 1/35 German armour, and another may say 1/48 US fighter plane, or 1/144 civilian airliner, or perhaps 1/35 attack helo, you get the idea. Keep the kit idea you desire to a type and scale, but not a particular kit. That way you just don't know what you'll get.
Secret Santas will be set up and you'll send your kit that you picked out to the recipient who will not know you sent it. We all open the kits on Xmas and that's when the build begins and it lasts about 9 months or so.
It's a way to celebrate the season AND it's a way for more of us to get to know members we might not otherwise meet. It's a great way to expand on our freindships and add more new builders to areas they may not have persued otherwise.
It'll be really fun and we want everyone to join in.
PM ajd3530 or myself with your scale and type of kit you would like to see and we'll add you to the list. Once we get near Thanksgiving we'll assign all the Santas and everyone has time to locate something that fits the bill. No one should spend more that $15-30 on a kit. Keep it simple, it's for fun.
Spead the word, this is gonna be a riot.
BK
