There are some really great (and very well expressed) thoughts in this thread!
I think polling of forum members to establish what level of popularity exists for different subjects will be useful in avoiding dead-end proposals. Likewise I agree that, if single kit GBs are proposed, cost should be considered alongside subject. Finally, I would suggest returning the minimum participation number back to eight; the better GBs (to me anyway) seem to be those with the higher number of entries, with the consequent higher level of contributions in the individual build threads which results..

A non-aircraft option for a SKGB could be the newish airfix1/72 Sherman firefly , cheap widely available maybe we could allow for conversions to tulips, M4A4’s

Where did this idea that Airfix are doing a 1/48 Wessex come from? They announced a 1/48 Sea King 2 weeks ago and that is it! There is no Wessex!

It's the next release after the 1/24 Defiant...

PS STGB would work for me...might even finish something....

Before the Defiant will be the 1/24 Sopwith Camel.

Stay on topic!

I have set up a poll to assess interest in various genres for SKGBs. 3 votes per person, and can be changed at any time. Poll runs for 7 days.

Good poll, well-formed within the board limitations.
I do see 9 votes = 3 voters but only one commented on their choices :sigh

Thanks, Andrew - that will help in narrowing things down a bit! I think one SKGB a year would be a good thing.

I think it will also help shape the subjects of the other GBs as well, so we can cater to people's second and third choices.
