This is a GB celebrating Monogram kits - aircraft, armor, ships, cars, whatever.
In addition to Monogram, kits from Revell-Monogram and Revell reboxings of Monogram are included.

This GB started from a thread here.

The GB runs from Saturday October 4th to Sunday November 2nd; your GBL is Sir T who will fill in any other info.

Hi Guys!

Welcome to the Monogram GB, where all things Monogram, promodeller, Revell Monogram and Revell Re-boxed are welcome.

I personally have a Revell rebox of Monogram 1/48 P-39/P-400 Airacobra.

Cheers

I have chosen their 1/72 Boeing F4B-4 although not sure what decals I'll be using yet.

I am hoping to build the Hawk P-6E kit, with Starfighter decals.

It will be mostly out of box, although I may add a little detail inside the cockpit.

cheers

After having a look through my Monogram car kits I've decided to go with a 1956 Ford Thunderbird. :)

I didn't anyone other than Revell had re-poped Monogram kits, but if it says it's a monogram kit then its acceptable :)

What kit is it?

Cheers

Sorting thru the ole stash for somat else I've discovered I have two Monogram kits, which I didn't know were Monogram.
One is a 1/72 Bearcat and t'other is a 1/48th P40B.
I might join in with the Bearcat

Its not just how good your painting is, its how good the touch-ups are too.

Welcome aboard Fred - a Bearcat will be great to see as it's supposed to be a really nice kit

Tempted by this one.

Besides a few of the 72nd scale aircraft laying around including a NASA BUFF with X-15 I have several of the Tom Daniel's cars that I need an excuse to build.
Rommel's Rod, Dragon Wagon, Tijuana Taxi and S'cool Bus all need to be built but think I will need more than a month to do them as I have only done one auto over the past 30 years.

I also have the old Orient Express snap kit which I have been thinking of turning into a 72nd stealth type fighter or NASA test bird. Hmmm

What I find interesting about this build is that out of 8 aircraft builds (and really nice to see some autos and armour) only one of them is 1/48th.

Which for a company that mainly built for the US 1/48 market I find quite surprising, and what’s more it seems that their 1/72 kits are pretty good quality too – I’m impressed. And hopefully anyone looking around this GB will be inspired to build some Monogram kits too.

Looking forward to seeing some great builds guys!

Cheers
