Count me in too. All these group build are forcing me to finish models...LOL
I think I have the DML/Dragon SdKfz 253 somewhere in my stash. Or a Tamiya 25x/xx?
Decisions, decisions.......

Next year we'll have to do an Afrika Korps group build. You know, build something from the North African campaign of WW2, or if the current war has ended by next year, do a Gulf War 2 build.

Here are two other ideas I have been bouncing in my mind regarding campaigns we could have sometime in the future:

1) a 1/72 scale campaign
2) a winter camo campaign
3) a M113 campaign - all kinds of variants, countries, time periods.......

Cheers,

Rob I'd love a North Africa campaign, I've got a ton of unusual kits that could match (i.e. L6, Morris CS8 with an italian 65/17 gun, AB41, AS42 "Sahariana") if this not limited to the DAK as you previously mentioned

Bombshell I'd be definetely on your M113 and derivatives, here in Italy we've got unusual variations like the VCC1 and the VCC2.
Ciao and thanks for the great suggestions
