Gents,
I would like to get back into the plastic modeling hobby, and i want to get some figures to finish a diorama i started when I was like 10.
Since i have not been "on the scene" as far as new kit releases, what are your favorite figure kits?
Accuracy?
Detail?
Price point?
Please limit suggestions to Germans and Americans.
Thanks for the help.
-Chris

Hi kamerad :)
I like the Tamiya Dkw bike and road block kit,
bought one last yr and finished off a nice little
diorama consisting of the Schwimwagon and
the seated SS figures (i used two), i created a
scene from the Ardennes 44, basicaly an SS bike
and SS Schwim at a road block, i think these kits
are outdated now and no longer for sale in retail
but you can still get them off fleabay, i reckon Tamiya
kits are still one of the best,well detailed, realisic kit
you can get imho.
Good luck, Pipes :wink:

Thanks for the tip, I plan on going to my local "Hobbytown" tomorrow to browse the selection, a schwimmer does sound pretty cool come to think of it...

I usaly go for the figures dragon are okay love the gen 2 gear but not so much their gen 2 figures. If you want good looking heads go for Hornet heads as they a fecking awsome
