Kostucha Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) Folks, Here's a quick blurb on the raffle. Fairly simple, at the end of the GB, on June 30th, those who have a completed entry will be entered into a raffle for various prizes. Each completed entry will give you one more entry into the raffle. It is going to be based on the honour system, in that if anyone here offeres a prize for the raffle, it is up to that member and the prize winner to get in touch with each other to finalize mailing/postage arrangements. I will soon have an updated list of the raffle prizes posted up here. If you have something you're willing to offer up for the raffle, please PM me and we will add your name and item to the list of prizes. Cheers! Mark. UPDATE As the GB had been extended we've had a halfway raffle. The remainder will be raffled off at the end of the GB, on the 31st (or shortly there after). Cheers! Mark.

Ranger74 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Mark, et al, I have another raffle prize. I am in the process of thinning the herd of kits and that includes only building B-17s up to the D-model. SO, I am offering a limited run kit that builds two GB-1 Glide Bombs, with I believe the mounts to attached to a B-17 as below Here is the kit, sorry it is 1/72, but someone that builds 1/48 could use them to make a fairly easy scratch build: Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kostucha Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 Jeff, That little thing is friggin cool! Thanks for your contribution! Cheers, Mark. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ranger74 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Jeff, That little thing is friggin cool! Thanks for your contribution! Cheers, Mark. Thought someone would like it! It is neat and i would really like to build a B-17 with them mounted, but I am 57 and have a b*tt-load of 'tween wars US Army & Navy aircraft kits and M113, M-60, (vehicles I operated on active duty), etc, kits to build. Hate to have it still hanging around when I go off to the big hobby-shop in the sky B) Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deacon Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Hi guys. Firstly I am thoroughly enjoying this GB and there are some truly wonderful builds on here. I do hope to take part, but have over commited to other GB's, we'll see. Anyhow, I'd like to donate Tamiya's 1:48 P51-D Mustang & Staff car. I thought a 'Little Friend' kit would go well with someones Fortress. Cheers Deacon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kostucha Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 Just a quick update to my list. There's a couple books added, and a couple replaced (by those added). I'm also cleaning off the shelves, and I'm thinking there may be one or two kits that make it onto this raffle as well. Just curious to know, so that it's completely transparent, would anyone be interested in running the raffle? Cheers, Mark. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kostucha Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 Everything was open, including the gift certificate, but as it happened, all prizes were drawn out from a hat, the only thing that was 'controlled' if you will, was the order of the winners based on the date the Fort(s) were completed. Cheers, Mark. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bashace Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Wow, guess I missed the GB extension memo. Had a short deployment to Iraq which put my build on the back burner, would be great to have more time to get her in as a finished build. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bashace Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 OK fellow GB'ers, in addition to the $100 SB gift certificate, I am going to offer up as a prize an American flag that has been flown in combat by a B-1B over Afghanistan. The flag will include an official mission document and have a dedication on it that reads: "In Honor of the brave crews who flew the Flying Fortress into battle (The Flying Fortress GB 2011)" Would make a great addition to your B-17 display.
