Previously-built Models

Post by JohnRatzenberger »

Here post 1-2 images of previous builds of GB-subject models. You do not have to be a member of this GB to do so.

If your model has a build thread on UAMF (old or new), then please include the link.

I'm not posting all 50 of them, but the direct predecessors of the kits now under construction seemed appropriate.

These would all have been built roughly between 1980 and 1986.
