Classic Heller GB 3 Oct 2020 - 24 Jan 2021

[Wez]

Excuse me for gatecrashing your forum but as you may frequent this forum and not others, I wanted to draw your attention to the Classic Heller GB which is this year's classic GB scheduled to run between 3rd Oct 2020 to the 24th Jan 2021.

 

Classic GBs are intended to encourage us to delve into the stash and pull out a kit that's been lurking there for some time, dust it off and build it!  Quite simple really.

 

This year the Classic Heller GB allows you to build any original Heller mould that was released before the relationship with Humbrol went wobbly, this means any original Heller mould released before 1986.

 

In addition to Heller releases it can be another manufacturer's release of the Heller mould, this includes (but not limited to), Airfix, Revell, Encore, KP, SMER and Buzco to name but a few, other manufacturers kits in Heller boxes are ineligible I'm afraid.

 

I distinctly remember an AMX-13 and AMX-30 from Heller so I'm sure that in addition to these there's plenty of choice and I'm sure many of you can find something in the stash.  Don't worry if the decals are shot, aftermarket goodies are permitted.

 

Come and join us!

The Classic Heller Group Build, is now open, link below. This represents an opportunity to build that Heller armoured kit that has been in the stash for ages.

If you haven't taken part in a Group Build before I would encourage you to give it a look, it's really enjoyable with lots of encouragement and support from the other participants.

 

Armoured models have always under represented on Group Builds so this is an opportunity to show what people have been missing.

 

Kind regards Pat
