I need to get some stuff wrapped up before I start something new... never enough time in the day...

Bruce, I don't think anything is wrong with you. The same thing happens to me sometimes. I pick a kit for a Group Build and suddenly all interest in starting it goes out the window. The best way to get past that is to just sit down, read the directions, choose a couple parts to cement together, lather, rinse, repeat. Then it all comes flowing out, as if the crack in the dam finally expands and gives way to the onrushing flood.

I think I'll start my Modelcollect MAZ cargo truck for this Group Build. Just gonna wait for Stuart's reply.

No worries Mark, Welcome aboard!

This is a very relaxed GB - Start and finish when you feel like it! (in fact you were already listed in the op :grin: )

Duke, methinks you can simply post here if you want; that was Stuart’s initial statement of intent for this GB...

Tamiya, Tasca/Asuka, and Dragon all make Jumbos in 1/35. The Tasca/Asuka kit is probably the best of the lot. The Tamiya kit needs corrections.

Thanks so much, Carlos. I was thinking if I wanted a tank in my house it would be this one... but I will let the idea set a few more days to see if it still has any traction or not....

Well Mark, I know of something that just fell into your mitts this weekend that would qualify... :hmm:
