LSP_Kevin 23,558 Posted November 1, 2016 Welcome to the Jurassic Plastic Group Build! This Group Build is a tribute to former LSP staff member Dan Lo Russo, who passed away earlier this year. Not only was Dan a terrific modeller, but also a well-known and respected dinosaur sculptor. So, in honour of Dan's dinosaur affiliations, Jurassic Plastic will focus on LSP kits released prior to 1984 (subject to negotiation for edge cases). There are no other restrictions, other than our standard 25% rule, which requires all entries to be less than 25% completed at the date of entry. This means anything from straight OOB, to scratch-built conversions, are all fair game. Jurassic Plastic will run from 1 November 2016 to 30 April 2017. Have fun!

Shaka HI 5,228 Posted November 1, 2016 LOL..had to read this twice. I was thinking dinosaur group build on LSP? How odd... Hey can I double-dip my build with my entry in the "Between the Wars" build? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marauderdriver 3,959 Posted November 1, 2016 Hi Kev, I saw the questions of the Tomy Japanese Fighters if they qualify? I have the Swallow George that has a Copyright Date of 1988. Since Tomy came first, I think they are older than 1984. IMHO Cheers jack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
r0t0rdr1ver 815 Posted November 1, 2016 This is going to be a great GB. I've really been looking forward to this one, great choice Gents, and a fitting tribute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mywifehatesmodels 3,336 Posted November 1, 2016 Kevin, I would like, with your approval of course, to move my Monogram F3F WIP to the GB. I've only done the instrument panel at this point. The build is linked in my sig, below. Thank you, John Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Radders 1,519 Posted November 2, 2016 (edited) Is this OK Kevin? Released in 1983, but my boxing is 1986 with other parts? https://www.scalemates.com/kits/134038-revell-4445-mbb-bo-105 Actually, cancel that. Found a kit I have from 1957... Will do a thread tonight. Edited November 2, 2016 by Radders 1 BradG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shaka HI 5,228 Posted November 3, 2016 I think Hasegawa's 1/32 Hellcat qualifies, right? It's HUGE! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LSP_Kevin 23,558 Posted November 3, 2016 Yep, the Hellcat qualifies! As does the P-26, ironically (apart from being a tad more than 25% complete, and entered into another GB!). Kev 1 Shaka HI reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
