This is a 'manufacturer' GB for Heller kits and derivatives thereof - any kit, any scale, any variant, any markings. However, not everyone is allowed to build HMS Victory, so get your bids in early.
This GB started from a thread here.
The GB runs from September 12th through October 11th; your GBL is TobyC who will fill in any other info.

Re: Sign-up and Chat
Welcome all. Looking forward to this GB. I have a positive glut of Heller kits and I'm still undecided as what to make. Hopefully I'll be doing two kits.
My current dilemma.
Which one shall I start first?

With so many Bf108s we need to put out a severe storm warning.

Re: Sign-up and Chat
Apart from Arcwelder's Higgins boat, there seems to be an overwhelming prevalence towards aircraft models. Personally, I don't think this represents Heller's ouput proportionally. I was going to build a Polikarpov 153 when I get home but I've decided to go in another direction. To this end I've ordered something different that should be waiting for me when I get back.
And I did it from the side of a pool in Crete. Isn't technology wonderful

Well, I could do the GMC Deuce and a half truck.
I have it in my 'models to do next' unit and it keeps getting shuffled around out of the way.
