Neither do I wanted to get one but they discontnued them by the time I'd gotten as far down the list to token it as my LMS never stocked the things.

Hmmm.....I wonder if Airfix might take the hint? Think

The chronic shortage of 1/76 and 1/32 Lees and Grants is clearly becoming a major issue in the hobby!

King Kit have the 1/76th Lee/Grant in stock for the princely sum of £3.99. Until very recently they also had the 1/32nd job for £19.99

Yeah I've just put in a second vote might do a 3rd 4th 5th and 6th if i'm allowed

One member.....One vote!

If we were allowed multiple votes, do you honestly think that the 1/72 A34 Comet would have any serious challengers at all in the 'If Beggars.....' thread.....I can go days on end without sleeping!

So it would seem that the next Military Vehicle Group Build is to be the Airfix Lee/Grant tank either in 1/76th or 1/32nd scale.

As I cannot remember who suggested it as a subject originally

are there any volunteers to lead the build out of those that voted for it

Once we have a build leader we can arrange to set up the user group and arrange a further poll to decide the start date.

Cheers

If I can actually get hold of one or more Lee/Grants and the start date isn't too soon, then I'd be prepared to lead the GB.

All the best

After I've got that I'm gonna try and lay me hands on an Airfix 1:32 car so I can put forward my emergency services GB idea and the rest of the multiposes (Jerry,Japs,Marines,Rangers) to complete the collection I've just started me desert rats.

I think perhaps we should have an ex JB Group Build after the Lee/Grant one, there seems to be plenty of interest, we can sort out dates for both builds and put them in the GB calendar.

Cheers

I'd certainly like to do the 'Ex-JB GB' too, but only once the Vickers MkVI is released in an Airfix box.
