Strange discussion here in which every one is trying to explain he has the best way to go through, but to different locations for each one !!
"- I swear I have the right way... to the blue one...!!
- No, no, your false, I have the right way... to the red one !!
- hey guys, are you mad, I have THE right way... to the green one !!"
????!!
Is it so important who makes "best kits" ?? and first, what is "best kits" for each of us ?? accuracy ?? perfect conception ??
as if you could consider a truth is universal for everyone and everything...
this is a no end discussion (but really interesting though as long as it stays full of respect and courtesy).
What I personaly think is that expectations are different from one to another builder, some prefer the most accuracy possible, some other the easiest and "best made" kit in terms of conception, fitment, plastic quality quality/price rate... etc.
Tamiya probably (I really say "probably", dont shoot me please

) offers the best made kit, with the best fit, the cleanest parts etc etc, but not inevitably the highest accuracy (??) as in the same time Revell offers a worse plastic quality, fitment issues etc etc but probably (?? according to some opinions here) a better accuracy.
And so what ? that doesn't mean either Tamiya or Revell models will be inevitably better or worse. That depends on each one expectations and skills, without meaning either that skills and builders are all that matters. Their expectation do are !
It's hard to compare things because some of them do mean something (an M3 is faster than a Fiesta, who could say contrary ?) for some people and exact same things would mean something else for other people (M3 is faster but Fiesta is "better" because I consider than the best car is the lighter one... etc etc)
Moreover don't forget the price, how many times does an M3 costs a Fiesta ??
Don't want to make two cents philosophy but things aren't only what one consider them having to significate. Signification can be different for each of us.
So yes, Tamiya is probably (still saying probably

) a better kit on some points but also is probably worse on some other points...
Who can judge except the one knowing what points count the most for himself ??
Strange discussion, really... but really interesting...
Guys, don't think, build !!
PS: do someone has pills for my headache now ??
