Now that's what I call a box art. The designer took his meds, that's for sure.

I remember a visible Grasshopper I built in the 60's
Building a kit from your stash is like cutting the head off a Hydra, two more take it’s place.

Basic rules?
1. Anything that is a model kit from the 50s through 1970.
2. If you find and build a Speed-i-bilt B-25 you automatically win.
3. Build must be out of the box.
A. NO Photoetch
B. No Aftermarket - except decals and paint masks

Build it as it was meant to be.
Did this GB ever happen? Sounds fun.

Good question Chris. I don’t remember it starting off….

It never did. There were way too many going on at the time. Then, I simply forgot about it.

I suppose it could go any time, if you guys want.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

I’m gonna sit this one out as well. I have nothing that qualifies for this GB. :bag:
