                        Yeah that is very ironic, I'm surprised nobody's doing any King Tigers yet, wasnt this the first big battle they were in?


                        Just as a reminder the real group build topic is in the Group build forum so just use the link to get to it

                        Isn't that ironic about Allied taking priority in a this build. It's just I have been looking for an excuse to build this kit. First build that it qualified for.

                        Yeah I guess it does look that way...

                        Maybe I'll do something German too, trust me the Hellcat is only my first build for the Gb.

                        Looks like everyone is going for the Allied subjects for this build, so I will have to represent the Axis in some fashion. Not sure yet what I will build for it though...I recently did Academy's M10 Duckbill and don't have any Allied kits on hand or ordered.

                        Pete,

                        Same here. My M-36 is waiting although it could be made for the Bulge GB Anyway I am still allocating August and September for a personal build and after that if I have time for the Commonwealth and the Bulge GB's I'll catch up. And oh I almost forgot..the ANZIO GB.

                        Petbat, the Group build hasn't been stickied in the Armor GB topic but it is in the group build forum, just click on the group build forum and you should find it.

                        The British/Commonwealth GB is set to run from 17 September 2004 to 31 December 2004. This GB is to February 2005, so hopefully you will have enough time to do both.

                        I'm going to try William, but then I commit to everything. Cool [8D] The timeframe is about right, for after the Stug Build, it looks wide open. The finish date is generous also.

                        Hey wait a minute...at the start of the Battle of the Bulge Germans pretended to be Americans and used captured US vehicles like the M-8 to cause confusion.

                        I'd have to pass. I have so many GB's that I've got mostly done, but still need work.-- it'll take a while to get them all cleaned up, then I've got other hobbies I've been ignoring. Too bad, as I think the Ardennes Offensive is interesting. Enjoy, guys.
