Thanks for the support guys. Just throwing a few things around at the moment to see what the interest is but looks like we might have enough to start a WW2 British/Commonwealth Designed and manufactured build. Would be looking to do this in a few months time after the current DDay and Normandy GB's and the proposed Stug and Panzer 4 GB's are done, as a lot of guys, including some of you, have shown interest in those. Maybe kick it off Friday 17 September as a tribute to all the Brit paratroops that hung in there at Arnhem 60 Years before. (Kinda like some of us hanging in there to finish our own, way past due date, GB's ) and run it to say Christmas to cater for stragglers - other date ideas anyone?
Yes Jon, it would appear obvious that most of us should be committed.

John R (Jratz) armour means anything land based. I mentioned the 25 pounder but if you want to do an AEC Matador, Austin, Bedford, Canadian Chevrolet or Ford CMP, 17 or 6 pounder A/T, 5.5 inch artillery piece, Figurine, etc, etc, etc - as long as it fits the British Commonwealth Designed and Made we should be okay with it.
T34. A Ram based Kangaroo sounds great. Would love to see it, so you got my vote for that.
Tigerman - Tamiya Valantine or Crusader? When people stop buying Tigers, and Panthers, and Shermans, and.......... Tamiya should do a Comet or at least the AA version of the Cromwell - wouldn't take much . If anyone was to do it it is more likely Dragon will be the best bet to offer some more diverse stuff. Just think:
From Valentine to Bishop to Archer (hopefully a new kit not the rebadged Valentine they did)
Crusader Mk1, Mk2, Mk3, (even though Italeri is out there) with AA turret
Churchill Mk 1 through VI (even Tamiya's VII is a bit old now). Be nice to see the 75mm support gun version. Ah dreams..........
