    Anyone have any preferences?

    Feeling a little shell-shocked after my Master Box figure, I went to the stash for inspiration & I found 3 models that raised interest

    Just so happens, all British ( not intentionally ). The Matilda is the 2009 version from Tamiya
    I don't think any of these have been extensively blogged on the forum. Looking in the boxes, I can't decide! The Bishop will be the most complex build, the Matilda the normal Tamiya excellent engineering, and the Valentine somewhere in between.
    Anyone have any burning preference?

          Hi Dave it has to be the Bishop.
          Good luck with whatever you choose.

                All three are very interesting, but I think the Bishop just edges it.

                  I'd go for the Matilda, but it's looking like it will be the bishop buddy, have fun whatever you go for.

                    Of the three, I like the look of the Valentine best.

                      I can see that the forum members are just as split over which to chose, as I am! I'm going to give it another day, and see if a clear choice emerges

                        Bishop. How often do you see one of those built?

                          I don't know much about any of them but I like the look of the bishop.

                            The Bishop looks fun, you get to build on the inside as well as the outside.

                              I'm beginning to wonder why you don't see it on forums......................:worried:
                              the Bishop is the front runner - I'll give it until tonight, to see if there are any latecomers!
