I and my wife are doing twin 222's #:-)
I also have a Panzer 38(t) in the box., can it be part of the build? Or is it out of the timeline? 
I just answered my own question... Took a look at Adam's lists #:-)
I have the old Italari model 38(t), (30 year old one) Looks like an ausf A but does not say in the documentation
Anyone know anything about this?

Alright, I am building the Stug III Ausf A. I was going to build a KV-I but I realized my kit is the KV-IC.

I am not sure if Pzkpfw II Ausf F/G had been used in Op. Barbarossa.
I saw anywhere here in Armorama a list with Barbarossa´s vehicles and there Pzkpfz II is type A up to F.
What are the differences between type F and F/G ? I am trying to use TAMIYA
35009 German Pzkpfw II Ausf F/G.

That Tamiya kit is mislabeled. It is really only an Ausf. F and therefore is fine for this group build.

The PAK 40/L46 75mm gun (together with both Gr8voyager and Penpen).
Sorry Dutchbird, but the Pak 40 only appeared in 1942. Still, we can build ours outside of the barbarossa campaign !

I think you all can count me in for this one. It will be my first group build here.
How about a a German Horch with a 20mm Flak38 I think it fits the time line. and a little something slightly from the mainstream.

I received my "care package" from VLS Corp when I got home from work today. I'm going with Eastern Express' BT-7 model 1937 (Early Version with conical turret). I liked that unusual looking camo scheme on the box top. I liked the winter whitewashed drawing too. I bought Eduard's photoetch set for the Zvesda BT-7, a lot of parts there to help me out with this version. There's a fair bit of cleanup here for such a small looking model tank...
I'm really (deep) in the running now...

Gunnie,
I don't know if you know or not but Eduard makes a set specifically for the Eastern Express kit. There are a number of parts in the set you got that might not fit the EE kit due to size differences between the two kits.

Yeah - I found this out after I ordered the Zvesda set - Murphy's Law in action here. I have a little time (very little) before the beginning of the Campaign to try and obtain it. Although, I might not, and just use the Eduard examples to make my own styrene replacement parts. This is going to be a fun modeling summer...

I am pretty new here and most likely will be moving from Hawaii back to Colorado in July. I will be pretty busy during the next few months but I really want to participate. I'll do something OOB for this one and be better prepared for the next. Looks like a STUG III C/D

Looks like its turned into a TankKarl thread at the moment!!
Nice little kit that is, both unpainted and especially painted up. Any plans for a bit of weathering? Looks quite tempting.

Ok,PB
The 250 needs glosscoating,decals,dullcoating,weathering and maybe a toolbox on the hood.Tonight I will get my SdKfz.253 up to the same point,with track and wheel assembly.
