I agree with, Steve. It was a blast last year and so many people were bummed they missed it. Hey, does anyone want to put any bets on who finishes first this time?

I hope whoever gets hkshooters name gets him a big 4 engine bomber with lots of parts. Maybe it'll take him a whole two weeks to build it. Wink [;)]

Dude this looked so fun last year! I am so in! that is if you will have me.

Huh pretty cool, I just showed this to my wife and she thinks it looks like fun. Im thinking she may drop by and join

Hey Troy, if I get you again this year I am going to send you a B-17 or Lancaster with all the resin and PE that can be found for it. Then we will see who finishes first this year. By the way, technically dont you owe us a Typhoon for last year, hahahahaha.

I did finish my C-47 from last year a few months ago but I am working on the figures and placing it in a dio, so I have not posted finished pics yet.

Alright LastPriest and of course it would be great if your wife gets in onit too. Of course there would have to be a family rule that you cant get each other as your secret santa. I am sure you guy's probably exchange models with each other also. Make sure you PM your info to Jon.

I agree with the family rule, if she was my SS I would get a box with a note in it saying "you dont need another kit you have not finished the kits you have"

Steve, you are right! The kit is still in the stash and I've been kicking the idea around of building it next. Since I just finished a build and need a new project I think that one will be just right. And I'll get it done before this years SSGB too!

Now about that bomber.....

Actually, I thought your stash needed some 'selective' thinning

Maybe it's in Steve's closet..............

My stash security lies in dispersal and camouflage. My 87 year old mother-in -law guards the door at one secret location, though. Don't mess with her! You might end up on The Price is Right!

I live in Italy, but I got my recipient's gift at Squadron's in the US and had it sent to him paying only US domestic shipping.

Will they still do that? These days with internet credit card fraud as rampant as it is, most merchants online won't ship except to the address associated with the credit card.
