Antony Robertson Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) Hi all As the title says, has there ever been a purely 1/144 scale GB? If not, how much interest would there be in running one? It could include military and civilian aircraft from fighters all the way up to big airliners, helicopters, all kinds of armour and ground equipment and maritime vessels. There is also quite a large selection of Gundam style models available in this scale. As the scale is small, it could also include dioramas and displays. Here is a provisional list of interested people: Antony Robertson - Host MadNurseGaz cuprar bootneck wkennerly Tim Dix - Co-host smyfe Daniel Phil B Micha mrcooljules Kev1n John_w CPNGROATS Bexwh773 Daz Greenwood Busdriver BigReg Ela00pjs Iain (32SIG) Paul J All feedback appreciated.

bootneck Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Hi Antony, I'd be interested in this. I have over 350 kits in 1/144 scale so perhaps I should actually have a go at building one! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antony Robertson Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 350 kits?! That's impressive. I think you should definitely be able to build something! Antony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antony Robertson Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 You can get 144th Gundam and mechas. Quite a lot in that scale. I would leave the GB open to all genres, so anything like that would be welcome Antony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I'd join in with one of the Revell jets, harrier probably. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antony Robertson Posted March 26, 2011 Author Share Posted March 26, 2011 Thats 8 people so far who've expressed an interest, lets see if we can get the required 15 to make this GB Happen Antony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHIL B Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Great idea Antony. I already have various military and civil aircraft and intend to get hold of such others as Discovery in sailing ship and space shuttle varieties, Saturn IB & Saturn V rockets, SR-N4 and LCAC hovercraft, U-Boat & GATO class submarines, etc. Add in armour, figures and more and you've got all kinds of possibilities in all kinds of modelling genres. I have long term plans for a very varied collection of 1/144 models á la old Airfix catalogue cover pictures. I'm in with either an Airbus Beluga or Super Guppy. Phil.
