2996 Victor Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 With the Frog Squad II GB going strong and a Classic Airfix GB on the way, I reckon it could be time for a Heller Classic GB II. What does everyone think? I'm minded to follow the parameters of the last Heller Classic GB, so anything from Heller prior to the Humbrol years would be admissible for this GB. This means any Heller-produced mould originally released prior to 31st December 1985. It doesn't have to be in a Heller box as Heller kits were released by many other manufacturers. Airfix, Buzzco, Encore, KP, Lodela, Revell and SMER are examples. Scalemates is your friend here. Heller also released kits from other manufacturers in their boxes, Airfix for one. These would not be eligible. Who else is up for this? 1. @2996 Victor Host 2. @JOCKNEY 3. @CarLos 4. @klr 5. @Corsairfoxfouruncle 6. @Richard Humm 7. @Wez Co-host 8. @TEMPESTMK5 9. @Doccur 10. @Mjwomack 11. @vppelt68 12. @psdavidson 13. @jean 14. @Max Headroom 15. @theplasticsurgeon 16. @Rafwaffe 17. @Rabbit Leader 18. @Bertie McBoatface 19. @Pig of the Week 20. @IanC 21. @bianfuxia 22. @silverfox63 23. @Marklo 24. @Karearea 25. @stevehnz 26. @Jinxman 27. @Alex.B 28. @RidgeRunner 29. @Giorgio N 30. @fightersweep 31. @Romeo Alpha Yankee 32. @MrB17 33. @UberDaveToo 34. @zebra 35. @Enzo the Magnificent 36. @davecov 37. @Ray S 38. @Old Man 39. @AdrianMF 40. @Modelling Masochist 41. ?

Mjwomack Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Did someone say, 'Classic'? It's. yes from me. Two bites at the cherry for a Heller Cessna 337 in 2025 (which is a lot of numbers), better set about finding one. BUT... I always thought that there was a separate calendar for the classic GBs and they just kept working through the list and didn't have to risk their aged decals in the raucous bunfight? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooh, I haven't seen a Heller Cessna 337 in longtemps! As for the Classic GBs, they need hosts so somebody has to propose them to take that responsibility on. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd never really thought about how hosting the Classic GBs worked- assumed it was the Usual Suspect!

No, it has to be somebody who clearly didn't understand the question volunteered for the task.

jean Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Hi Mark, Pat, aka @JOCKNEY, is threatening my beret. He can have my soul, but never my beret! But in order to avoid a Franco-Scottish feud that would last hundreds of years, I will gladly throw my very beret into the ring. Not sure what I will enter yet.... Decision, decision.
