THANKS TO ALL THE MEMBERS WHO SIGNED UP FOR THIS **THE DATES FOR THIS BUILD ARE 30 MARCH 2019 Through 30 JUNE 2019. ** Ok so I know there has been a-lot of interest in Armor STGB’s so far. So I have this idea for a group build. We hopefully will join the other three successful single type Armor builds in a year. Im hoping this will be a Fourth that will cover 72 years of armor over Four major types with several sub-types and variants. This build would cover everything from the earliest version of the M-46 Patton and its sire the M26. All the way to the latest Israeli variant of the M-60 and everything in between. Ok We now have Two co-host’s, Plasto and Plastix and myself will be the three hosts for the build. THE QUALIFYING VARIANTS : Start with the M26*/46 series. And its spinoffs the T29/30/34 prototypes. Those ultimately helped develop the M103. There was the T39 Prototype Eng. vehicle(M46) which one member is planning on doing. We then have the M47 & all of its sub-types including the M6 dozer and Sabalan Iranian tank Next is the M48 & all of its sub-types including the Engineering vehicles and Remotely operated vehicles. There is also the M67 “Zippo” flamethrower tank. That is followed by the M60 & all of its sub-types. We have an option to build the M88 ARV. Some of you might consider scratchbuilding an M51 ARV based on the M103. You could always try your hand with an M247 Sgt.York ISRAELI Variations are definitely allowed and encouraged. All of these versions like the Also any other variations of the already mentioned types. Any Self-propelled Artillery based on the same chassis. Such as M53 & M55 which use components from the M-48 drivetrain. * As i have posted The M26 counts as 1,160 were converted to M46 & M46a1’s so to me that is a direct connection and should qualify. PLEASE IF I’VE MISSED ANY VARIANTS I URGE YOU TO SUGGEST/ASK AND WE WILL RESEARCH AND DECIDE. Any scale would work. Standard build rules will apply including the 25% rule. * I however understand that some of the aftermarket tracks take time to assemble. That might classify its own build ? No WHIFS there are enough mods with these as is. We dont need to think up imaginary tanks. I will consider working prototypes as a project. But no paper projects that is just another form of Whif. So let me revisit we now have had two successful Armor STGB’s. The M3/M4 build and The Panzer Mk.IV build. We have a Mk VI Tiger Tank STGB, Panther group build in 2020, the T-34, & T-55.
