Ok guys and dolls it's that time of year again . First off let me start by saying taking part in the gift exchange is the only way you can compete in February's MOTM .
That said this is how it will work . If you are interested message me your name and address with the heading dear Santa ! You have until November 23 then I will take and match people up . We will try to keep them close so your shipping costs are lower and for our friends across the pond or in canada we will try to keep you guys bunched together as well. On nov 25 I will send each Santa the name and address of a good lil boy or girl ( our members ) and then on or before December 1 you mail one kit . After you ship you send me the tracking as we don't want everyone to know who their Santa is .
The kit should be a new unopened kit now if you want feel free to challenge the person alittle ( example send HEMI a vw and challenge him to make it a drag car ) but don't go way overboard .
As soon as you get your kit you will take a picture of your present opened and post it under "look what I got for Xmas " ( we will have it up by then) and then you can start right away. Now remember this is for the February MOTM so that gives you December and January to build it. Take all your pictures and post them on the. MOTM thread just like normall as soon as the voting for January is over.
We did this last year and it was a lot of fun so come on gang who wants in. ?

Here is the list I have so far
Grandpabeast, Wisdonm, Jbailey, Iceman, Skip-o-matic, CoyoteCrunch, Jmccann360, Doc-O, Gardnerpag44, Sharp, BigD
Ok so you still got untill sunday to sign up. Sunday night I will match each person with a secret santa and when you get up monday you will have a pm from me telling you who you are to send to and their address. keep this a secret, pick out a kit and mail it to them on dec 1 , then send me a pm with the tracking number. I will track all packages. Once you get your package take one picture and hold, on dec 26 we will all post the one picture showing what we got for christmas. But as soon as you take that picture you can start it if you want. Just follow regular MOTM rules and wait til Jan to post your build shots .

Quick question GB. Does this have to be a sealed kit or is a new unstarted open kit OK?

I read that after I signed up. It's hard for me to get out of the house so I'll have to order one after I find out who my lucky person is and hope it gets here in time, but more than likely I'll get somebody to run me up to Hobby Lobby and pick one up real fast. Exciting stuff!

I think even if we have an odd number it will work. Beast isn't pairing them off, its just a random exchange to make sure everyone gets something.
BUT, the more the merrier for sure!

Great Knarf and Mike join the party. we can have as many or as few as we want ( 1 will ship to 2 , 2 will ship to 3 and 3 will ship to 1 )
Also I asked that they be sealed kits because I didn't want someone getting a half built already painted , missing parts mess. If your sure your open kit is new, complete and un started then I am saying you can gift that
