Rationally I'd have gone 'Nightstalkers'.....But I've been reading about the Spanish Civil War again recently and I got all distracted! 
I think we should have a new poll.....With something like the two least popular candidates removed!
Just a (completely unbiased, random and not even slightly trying to tamper with the outcome) thought, & all the best

I got me a bristol bulldog in case there was a spanish civil war.
might have to bale out if the pacific theatre wins.
could do an ozzie mozzie for the commonwealth
not sure about nightstalkers- that might be tricky.
a few options for FAA/RNAS |

My Bulldog was at the ready too and an 'Angelito' was also a possibility. 
I've got quite enough on the go to keep me busy right now anyway.
All the best

Well, I've had a rumamge - what category does Humbrol/Heller fall under? I've seen Airfix/Heller - Airfix/SMER but Humbrol Heller... does this fall into Airfix category?
Thanks

Do you mean boxings Ian? If so, only kits in Airfix boxes are allowed for group builds.

Stocked up in case the FAA/RN or Pacific Theater (my best choices) come up. For the life of me, I can't find any kits for Spanish Civil War or Gulf War (that are Airfix that is) in Athens...

You should be able to find the 1/72 Henschell Hs.123 as it's only just been rereleased.
All the best

That's it - boxing. I've stopped getting kits and dug some out I'd never build to flog off - then find kits long forgotten about. Some of these would qualify nicely for a wide range of subjects (Airfix)

Well, this poll has now finished. Whilst we've got one clear winner, we also have four others that reached the qualifying margin for a group build.
Seems a bit unfair to deny those who have voted for the RNAS/FAA, so I think we can safely say that will be next Military aircraft GB. For the next build after that, I'll set up another poll in the new year so the supporters of the other four (Nightstalkers, Spanish Civil War, Pacific Theatre and Commonwealth) can battle it out!
Next thing is a GB leader. Can we have a volunteer please? Be nice if it wasn't one of the usual suspects!
