Okay, What I've gathered (besides mold, dust and rust) are the following suggestions...
1. A Great Britan GB - anything British
2. A Helo GB
3. A Space stuff GB - Real or Sci-Fi
4. A Single Kit GB
Have i missed any?
GB Ideas for 2024?
Re: GB Ideas for 2024?
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!"..

Re: GB Ideas for 2024?
Here’s an idea that’s the complete opposite of the single kit GB idea… How about a “Build anything” GB. Since we all have different tastes, stashes, interests, finances, etc., the kits would be whatever the member wants to build. The whole point is to get everybody building something… anything… but build and participate… just build within the time limits of the GB.

That could work - buy something you've fancied for a while or dig something out of the stash that been sitting there for eons and build it.

"Go ahead and build something, already!"

Here we go. You should be able to add threads with your builds. I'll try to keep up with the entries.
Rules. Follow them or a large, smelly guy with a crooked nose will be by to talk wit chew.
RULES:
THE "GO AHEAD AND BUILD SOMETHING ALEADY" GROUP BUILD
It would be a GB that basically has no rules. That is the only rule.
* Any genre - SciFi, ship, boat, lawnmower, automotive, armor, airplane - civie or military, one wing, two wings, no wings (Helo), trucks, rail, small boats, figures (0-9) and dioramas. Anything
* Any material from belly button lint to resin or left over food in the fridge.
* Any scale. Yes, any scale. from . to really big
* You can use paint, glue - any type, crayons, tape, string and scissors.
* The kit can be in any state - percentage complete that is.
* Here is why. You must build
a brand new, not in the stash kit
a kit from your stash
AND finish two or more kits from your "Shelf of Doom", "Shelf of Shame" or "Shelf of Someday"
Time frame - STARTS Now, ends December 2017 or when the Cubs win another World

Re: GB Ideas for 2024?
Sounds like our GB themes are starting to repeat themselves...
"Surely I have made my meaning plain? I intend to avenge myself upon you, Admiral. I have deprived your ship of power, and when I swing 'round, I intend to deprive you of your life."

Hey, I'm already doing that with my own Group Build; just check out my Maddog Manufacturing threads from the past to see what I'm talking about!

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Has there ever been an F-4 Phantom GB around these parts?
