Adam Poultney Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 (edited) So we didn't make it through the 2022 Bunfight, but at times we were doing fairly well. So I say let's give it another go, hack through the cobwebs, find the lost kits and get those stashes cleared out in 2023! Rules: The aim of this GB is to build a kit which has been in your stash for a while, one you bought but never got around to building. Ideally one of the ones that has been there the longest. I suspect we will see some very old kits appearing in this, but for me it will be some more recent ones because I've only been stashing kits since 2019. In an alteration to the previous run of this, if you have a decal sheet or other aftermarket or whatever that you've had for years and haven't used, using that on a newly bought kit will qualify. Using it on a kit that qualifies itself will earn you.... nothing! But it will be very much in the spirit of this GB. Edit: the intention of this is to use parts that form a major part of the model, eg an extensive conversion set or a decal sheet. Using a spare missile or a few bits of etch will not cut it. The aftermarket should have been bought for a project you just never got around to. Normal GB rules apply (25% rule etc...)

Bonhoff Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 And me - The Tomcat has sat in the stash for 40 years, another year won't hurt... IanJ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimJ Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I'm in for a second attempt. I built one of my long time stash dwellers earlier this year. I bought this Hasegawa F-5 and the Modeldecal sheet that the markings came from sometime in the early 80's.

ArnoldAmbrose Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Gidday, the box containing my 'Cutty Sark' kit has more cobwebs around it than Dracula's coffin. (OK maybe not quite 🙂). I think it will qualify. Add me to the list please. Regards, Jeff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdjp11 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) Count me in. I have a 1977 Novo Fairey Delta 2 from around that time that I've carried around for four decades. It's a rebox of a 1957 Frog tool. I think that counts as "lost stash" Edited November 16, 2021 by drdjp11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafwaffe Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Still keen. Count me in. I’ve got kits that I have yet to build that I’ve had long enough that they are old enough to drink/get their licence here in Australia! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least you've got a start on the rigging. (Not to exceed 25%, though) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjwomack Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Sign me up. Thought I was on the original list but no matter. Anyhow another year in the stash is neither here nor there after the first 20! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Poultney Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) We're already almost halfway to next year's Bunfight! 14/30 signups, this might become a record for fastest qualification ever Edited November 16, 2021 by Adam Poultney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray S Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I am in, the same suggestions as for 'Take 1' - Airfix bagged Albatros DVa, Hannover and the red stripe boxing of the HP 0/400 all of which I have had since 1981,and possibly more candidates if I really look!

Adam Poultney Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 Now we really are halfway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marklo Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) Still in, plenty of options in the stash. There are quite a few that have been there a while and with next years GB schedules aren't likely to go anywhere anytime soon :).
