If there will be any suitable group builds.

As I read some combinations are not allowed

1. Pure Airfix kits in Airfix boxes Of course it's allowed

2. Airfix kits in Heller boxes (like Westland Sea King) not allowed?
3. Heller or Italeri kits in Airfix boxes (like Saab Tunnan or Gripen) allowed?

Hi Jan.

If the kit is in an Airfix box, then it's allowed, regardless of where the mould originated.

If the kit isn't in an Airfix box, then it can't be built for a group build, even if the original mould came from Airfix, or Airfix also market the same kit.

The exception to this is the Dapol railway kits.

That's my understanding, too, Jan.

Beaten to it by a suqeak by Adrian!

I think I'll find some Airfix boxes in my stash.
