I'd say tamiya too. But I am pretty upset @ the current trend to make all the models curbside kits only. I really enjoyed the civic and teg kits due to being able to supe up those lil' B-series engines!!!

Hey, Tamiya kits are expensive anyways, I'd pay another $5 for engine detail!!

i have only done a few models, and not recently-im on my first project in like 3 years, and most of them are revell, and i have found them to be satisfactory. i dont really know wut to compare them to that good though, but they r good.

I like revell because they make the cars I like you don't see Tamiya making a 63 impala lowrider but if they did I'd pick Tamiya. I just don't like imports all that much.
My list is
1.Revell
2.Tamiya
3.AMT and Fujimi (tied)

Those are the only kind of cars I've built

Just to be different, im gonna say Tamiya are the best
Nah, the Merc C9 i built was superb, even though it dates from 1990, the 911Gt1 was amazingly detailed and very well engineered. The 1984 porche 956 was a bit more work but the end result was worth it, especially as it has been re-released with cartograf decals.
Tamiya 1/35 military kits are awesome too, although revell make some very nice ones as well. . . from a plane point of veiw, hasegawa kits are as good as tamiya, but ive never built a hasegawa car kit.
Nut from the general trend, id say tamiya have eay got the best reputation as far as kit quality goes! Im looking forward to my Enzo at christmas time
BTW ive just got back from the pub and am rather drunk so im probably rambling as bit

Re: What kit does everyone like the best

Tamiya 1/35 military kits are awesome. But actually, I'm going with AMT kits they have a far seperior selection then any other company and are like really cheap.

1.Revell
2.AMT
3.Tamiya

My we're getting some old threads dug up here now aren't we?
Best kit is the one of the car you want to build.
