Creepy Pete Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 (edited) Sign me up for this one, I have quite a few things I could build. @Marklo, cool subject. I did that one a few years ago in 1/48 with the ICM kit. Edited December 4, 2021 by Creepy Pete cinnamon rolls 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creepy Pete Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) I think I have found the perfect kit for this GB. Edited December 5, 2021 by Creepy Pete 6 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klr Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I picked this up at the weekend: There are other (better?) kits of the Type 10, notably by Aoshima and Fujimi, but at 10 Euro, I couldn't pass this up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not up to me but I think it's all welcome, these group builds usually are - so as long as the subject matter fits the requirements / less than 25% completed at start are the usual requirements. I'll be joining too I think, will be something wheely - I have quite a bunch of Japanese car models that need building (and zero Zeros), just not sure what to pick yet from the stash, Subaru or Mitsubishi rally car or a Suzuki, Nissan, or Mitsubishi road car. Will decide what takes my fancy closer to the build start date. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beany Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Hi guys. I hope I'm not too late to join the party. I have some Japanese bikes and several aircraft to choose from. My main contender would be my Tamiya 1/6th CB750 Four (also have the 1/6 750F, a Heller 1/8th 950SS and a Nitto 1/8th CBX Tourer to name a few). It is less than 25% started on account of it scaring the crap out of me every time I do anything to it, I'm so worried about stuffing it up. For things with wings I also have Dinahs, Gekkos and Mavis' coming out of my ears so hope to have time to do at least one of those. Cheers Al. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've acquired a few Japanese cars of late...mostly JTCC & JGTC race cars. Go time for this GB will be in the spring (April 16th)...so lots of time to settle on something, then change your mind half dozen times between now and then (like me). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giorgio N Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 I'll try to join this one, potential candidates are the 1/72 RS Ki-61 or the Hasegawa 1/48 F-1.. very different options but all interesting subjects in their own way 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up one of those F-1s a little while back on sale when I was on a bit of a Japanese binge...not all JASDF subjects, several race cars too.

wimbledon99 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 If I recall correctly, I said this would be a good excuse for something on 2 wheels. I was thinking at the time of a track bike (full fairing and lots of decals) but after having a meander through eBay, I settled on a Tamiya Yamaha Virago XV1000. I've always fancied building one and as it was on offer, it's been purchased in readiness for April 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icarus Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) A quick question if I may, and apologies if this has been covered in the multiple pages of chat above. Does this GB include only Japanese a/c based in Japan? There are some pretty funky colour schemes for US jets stationed there... Otherwise, I'm afraid I will only be able to join with a Tamiya 1/48 Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero, which is not exactly original, compared to some of the amazing kits proposed above!

Icarus I would be inclined to allow permanently based equipment. So for example, USAF aircraft assigned to Kadena AB, Misawa AB, Yokota AB, CVW-5 squadrons out of NAF Atsugi, or ships home ported out of Yokosuka or Sasebo. I'd lean towards a no for transient/visiting equipment. @trickyrich will have final say, once he has an opportunity to drop in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
