    Looking like a really interesting GB coming up Lee. Alas I don't have anything ground related that would fit and I can't buy anything as I have a self-imposed (supported by my wife lol) ban on getting any new kits until I've sold some off (which I'm in the process of doing), so I'll be watching with interest.

    I suppose the only thing I do have that would fit is an F-14A Tomcat, after all it carried x4 AIM-54, x2 AIM-7 and x4 AIM-9 and a lot of its systems were built around the AIM-54. The only problem is I've built (but not painted) the cockpit which probably falls outside the 10% rule...

    ...I suppose I do have an Avro Vulcan with a Blue Steel Missile.

Then I suggest you start your own thread but some where in the title put the GB name so people can find it easier. Thanks for all who have joined.
            Just to clarify:
            The Title of the GB is not needed in the thread tital as the builds should all be in the GB section titled with the name of the GB.
            As pointed out in the GB guidelines: Builders name. Name of Model, Scale and brand. Nothing else.
            Group builds

                That will work like to have you in the GB.

                            Alas, I stupidly let PJ take his home with him. Now it's half built (that child just has no patience at all!) so he can't join in with his! Maybe he'll find something else though so we'll see.
