twobobs Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Sorry this has taken so long guys but with all the travel and trying to get artwork out, I just got WAAAAAY behind the 8-ball. Wah wah wah... Yeah I know I'm whinin'. OK without further delay.

Royal Resin's 2 resin wheels are also grouped together. So that's the way I decided to go since the math here seemed to line up.

OK so I'm going to ask all the sponsors to directly mail their donated prizes to the guys that won. I will also PM the guys that won and let them know that the prize sponsors are going to get a hold of them. Again guys. Thanks so much for being patient with me. Some great stuff in here! Thanks for participating!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Josh1971 Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 This was an absolute honor! There were some great Hogs in this build, too! Thanks, Bob! jb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AX 365 Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 I have to agree with Josh. I had fun during this build (aside from a few minor annoyances during the painting and decalling stages) but the support received from other modellers and participants helped quite a bit. Thank you. Winning a prize was completely unexpected but it's nice to be a recipient of five free sheets from Twobobs! You should all be proud of your models. Congrats to you all on a job well done. Bob...thanks for your patience and taking the time out of your hectic schedule to moderate this GB and award the prizes. <_< All the best to everyone, Mike We're done!

Sebastijan Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Congrats to all... is it a mistake, I haven't won anything (I understand each participant with finished entry here, should get something in the raffle)? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
David Walker Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Thanks Bob, it was a great group build. ....i hope David Walker doesn't mind if i change his prize to a 1/32 sniper pod.. No, that's not a problem at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
strikeeagle48 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Hi Bob, Sent you a PM on the 21st October,didn't get a reply. I received a decal sheet from you,thanks for that.No sign of the Trumpeter 1/32 A-10 or the Lightening pods. Was wondering if they had been sent? Thanks and regards Jon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doctorpepper Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Hi strikeeagle48 and David Walker, please send me your address. the prizes are coming direct from me think with the financial crisis round the corner, i'm gonna have to cut back on GB sponsorship.. thanks drPepper Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AX 365 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Unless it showed up in my community mailbox yesterday (actually 2 days ago for me since I'm now in Tokyo), I've yet to receive my awarded prize (5 sheets from Twobobs). In Bob's defence, I did say I wasn't in a hurry as I chose a set of decals that were still in production as of the start of October. This isn't a call out in any way, shape or form. Bob...I know you're busy and many others have vouched for you as a stand up guy so I have no concerns you'll live up to your promise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Josh1971 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I have a similar problem, in that I've received that GREAT sheet from Bob, but have yet to receive the 1/72 Italeri OA-10. Not a huge deal, just checking in. jb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Doppel Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Received my Hog Guide a couple of weeks ago and am extremely happy. Cheers Bob and Sponsors Regards Andrew Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Josh1971 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Any word on this stuff? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AX 365 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Any word on this stuff? Can't say for me. I'm still in Tokyo for another week almost. I'll know next week. As I said, my prize is coming from Bob himself and one of the sheets I selected was still in production when I made my choices of the five Twobobs sheets. It's only been a month so, in the grand scheme of things, that's really not all that long. Also, as a personal observation, when the sheets I chose arrive, they arrive. If for some reason (and whatever that reason is) they don't, so be it. It's not like I'm out of pocket and money and ready to burn Bob in effigy if the sheets don't arrive. I'll post another message when Bob (and Canada Post) delivers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AX 365 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I just got home from taking the mutts for a walk and checking the mailbox. Bob has delivered in spades! Thank you, Bob. I never doubted you for a minute. Those sheets look awsome. Now all I have to do is build the models to put them on. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
