Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Many years ago (can't recall), I hosted the first "Rising Sun"GB .

Any Japanese subject from any era.

Subject not designed by Japan with Japanese markings.

U.S material used during the Pearl Harbor attack.

 

So,how about another one in 2021 ?

I'm on board. I have some candidates in the stash, although nowhere near as many as I'd like. The best and most exotic is probably the original release of the Hasegawa Kugisho P1Y1 Ginga ("Frances"). Oh, and the Tamiya Aichi M6A1 Seiran. I've also got a Fujimi Tachikawa Ki-36/Ki-55 ("Ida"), a Fujimi Nakajima B6N2 Tenzan ("Jill") with 5 different stores options, two Tonys (Hasegawa and Aoshima), a Tojo, two ICM Nates, a Claude, a couple of Kates, a couple of Dinahs, a Frank, some Oscars, a George ... etc. I might even do the old Airfix Val, for which I have a replacement canopy.

 

I also have a growing collection of IBG tanks, also in 1/72 scale. So far I have two Type 89s, a Type 1, a Type 3, and a Type 94 tankette. In 1/76, I have several Airfix Type 97 Chi-Ha tanks, and a Fujimi Type 1 Tank Destroyer Ho-Ni.

Hi all,

 

If this GB get's the OK and I am allowed to host it ,I would like to add a "sub-GB theme" to this GB.

 

On 7 dec 2021 it will be 80 years ago that the attack on Pearl Harbor took place.

A special "sub-GB" will be added to commemorate this event.

Unless there is enough support to make Pearl Habor a seperate GB.

 

All subject,US and Japanese, must be in the correct markings of that day.

 

I would then ask the GB to be started or ended on 7 dec 2021.

 

Any comments are welcome.

Well let me see.  I have a couple each of zeros, Oscars, Tojos, Tony’s, Claudes, Nates, a Frank, a Nick, a George, and a Jack the stash so in the interests of stash reduction I’ll join the fun.

ps.  I found a Dinah I’d forgotten about!

Yes please Erwin.

I've got to make a dent in this pile somehow!

Despite what it says on some of the box tops, they're all actually 1/100 scale.
