UK Phantom STGB - 30 Aug to 30 Nov 2025

[JOCKNEY]

Well done Dennis on taking on hosting this one 

 

I believe you now have an extensive collection of co-hosts so I won't volunteer,  however I'm confident this one will be successful in the bunfight  

 

Cheers Pat

Phantom - the the most beautiful airplane of ХХ century I will try to make one.😉

[Dave Klaatu]

I'm in. I've got many 1/72 Fujimi Phantoms, several of which are British- so, FAR past time to dip into them!

Thanks Dennis; on reflection I lied about having an RAF Phantom. It turns out Si have three. Now, WWEMD?!

Well thats up to you if you wish to build them all. Personally I would do one maybe two and save something for a future build.

Dennis, my friend, one Phantom will be more than sufficient, I'm sure - getting two over the line would be a miracle and three would require the universe to agree to pause for an epoch or two!

I'll throw my hat into the ring for this but it will wholly depend on when it crops up in the calendar as to whether I will be able to participate.  My plan will be to build an 892 Sqn F4-K from ARK ROYAL's final deployment to the States using the Hasegawa 1/48 kit as the base.

Hello & Welcome to the build. Would those be the Jubilee markings from 77 ?

Bumpity bump, don't forget to vote for this'un, lads. I expect to see this GB at the top of the tree, nose leg at full extension and Speys at full mil.

 

Thankfully (unlike the real item) F-4M/K kits aren't 3 times the cost of standard Rhino kits, so how many of the 170 produced can we replicate?

[Jabba]

Bump. Votes are still required for this GB. 

[AliGauld]

Ok you've got me. Sign me up please.

 

Cheers,

Alistair

[Heart Failure]

I'm all in guys! Time for another British Phantom! Just done my FG.1 but always planning to do a FGR2!

[Jabba]

Thank you both.

[Ray S]

You've got one of my votes, but I still reckon we need an extension because of all the transfers we need to add, especially those who have mentioned about building two or more!
