viper50 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 March is fine with me. As if I didn't have enough 1/48 Phantoms in the stash, I picked up the Tamiya 1/32 F-4C yesterday at the Huntsville Model Show. That gives me time to check out all the AM goodies I might want. If anyone has a suggestion of what I might look for, let me know. After looking at the kit, man is that thing huge. I love the one piece fuselage. Come on March !! Don M.

phantom Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 The seats are the big thing that need replacement. And something to cover or fix the intakes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Litvyak Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I've got the kit, just waiting for the decals now. Why so long until the start? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I've got the kit, just waiting for the decals now. Why so long until the start? Too many GBs on the docket already. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flyboyf18 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I've got the kit, just waiting for the decals now. Why so long until the start? Yeah I'm still puzzled as to why we have choked off the number of GBs? There are only 6 on-going right now and the lengths are from 6 months to damn near a year!!!! BM seems to have more GBs and new ones start every month IIRC, do they have more members than ARC?? These here should be limited to 6 months and start every month to keep things rolling. If you cannot get a kit done in that time then your life is more complicated than most!? Yes I know there other things besides modelling but say an hour a nite for 6 months is approx 180 hours, unless you are scratch building the model that should be enough time? There I fell better now, I'll set the soap box aside for any body else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Auger Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Switched from a 'maybe' to 'yes', as I really need to put a dent in my Phantom collection! This looks like it could become a large GB, judging by the 'yes' count. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
falcon20driver Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 If I had the time I'd love to join in. I think doing a two phantom build dio of "Pardo's push" would be way to much fun! Stupid work schedule in the way as usual. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Liberator24 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Changed my mind... Last time I got into a party atmosphere with Bashace and Phantom, I was left on top of a building with nothing but the clothes I was wearing and the mattress I slept on....nearly burned to death in the sun, while they were out fighting Mike Tyson, peeing in his pool, and getting married to a stripper with a kid.... Hmmmmm, almost sounds like that should in some kind of movie.... -Jim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PNW_Modeler Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 (edited) Raises hand. Always down for a Phabulous Phantom build! This should just be a constant GB Edited October 24, 2012 by PNW_Modeler Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ScotVA36 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 (edited) I would be interested in this i have a few kits to work from, have never done a GB plus this gives me time to get some more goodies stocked up. Scott Edited October 25, 2012 by ScotVA36 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This is why we have started the new rolling start for Group builds it will be more fluid this way with less waiting for the start Quote Link to post Share on other sites
