Wow the Gee Hod's are here already! One of them came with a production number of 00017.

I don't have much building time available over the next several days but I am going to start building the un-numbered kit.

The quality of materials (as always with any Semroc kit) is excellent and they arrived almost before I even ordered them as usual.

Noooo....

My b-day is not for another month and I've already nudged my wife this way. Please don't run out before then.

It will go well with my Ruskie and Saki.

I'm still scratching my head over the idea that the new Gee'hod kit is "un-PC." Yes, I do realize that being irreverent is part of the whole cachet of the Groonies (and that is one of the things that I really like about them ), but seriously, when did it become un-PC to mock al-Qaeda? Between here and Tora Bora, who could possibly have any problem with dissing OBL?

I do like it, though; I just love all of the little details. I think that it is the best Groonie yet. Great job!

We see it as mocking al-Qaeda. Others may see it as slamming Islam as not all holy wars have been fought by OBL against the USA.

BTW, I'm all for the model.

I wonder what would happen if there was a Muhammad Goonie? One would get to sent it skywards all the time..............

I just finished the Geehod build. The decals are on and after a clear coat it will be ready to fly.

This was my first goonie and it probably won't be my last. The build was a lot of fun.

If I have time later I'll take and post a couple of pictures.
