Right gentlemen time to choose. 5 votes each in order to pick 2 G.B.'s for the 2018/2019 Season. RAF 100 will be the third GB

You have 2 weeks.

Explanations for what is/isn't included in the G.B.'s can be found in the separate thread.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Voted! Thanks as always for putting this together Chris.

I even have several in the stash for some of the contenders...as if that's never stopped me from buying more!!!

Voted, too. Interesting that there's a very broad basis, (still) a very even distribution among many proposals.

Many thanks for setting this up!  :thumbsup:

In the event of ties for 1st (if 3 or more options tie) or 2nd place will there be a second round?

Hard to choose with only five votes.

The way I think of it isn't "what do I want to build" because I can build them any way.  It's more "what do I want to see others building alongside me".

There will be a penalty shoot out certainly.

To be honest I hadn't thought of it. A run off poll sounds like the way forward, but lets cross that bridge if we come to it.

Can I take this opportunity to shamelessly promote the James Bond GB please?

An ideal choice since it has a well-defined theme, but is still broad enough to encompass a wide range of models, including, but not limited to, cars, boats, aeroplanes, helicopters, autogyros, submarines, trucks, ships, spacecraft, dioramas, architecture (villains' lairs), figures and even 1:1 scale props. You can build a what-if substitute for something in a real James Bond movie, or make up your own movie, which can be a 'mainstream' one, or even a spin-off or parody. Lots of scope for coolness and comedy, get shaken AND stirred and vote (early and often) for the James Bond GB!

VOTE FOR THE MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM/MACROSS, etc. GROUP BUILD!

Show your support for the Neo-Zeon forces!

SIEG ZEON!

Modeling isn't just about how good the gluing or painting, etc. looks. It's also about how creative and imaginative you can be with a subject.
My modeling philosophy is: Don't build what everyone else has done. Build instead what nobody has seen or done before.

To be honest I'd rather you hadn't posted these adverts here and had started a separate thread instead, they distract from the Poll in my opinion  :-\

But c'est la vie. Perhaps if your's win through you can volunteer to moderate  :angel: (and yes H and Zen I know you are already)

May well need to start thinking about it

Only one choice is so far losing it's deposit.

Instead of having a run off how about we combine them?  With the three that are currently tying it wouldn't be impossible.

So, not just a pretty face ? One to consider certainly, although one of the 3 has now sneaked ahead as at this moment anyway.
