Your top five kits?

What are your top five kits to buy that have the most potential to be built to be as scale as the real thing "out of the box"?

Here's my suggestions two for 1/24 scale.

1. Ferrari Enzo - Tamiya

2. Nissan GT-R - Fujimi Enthusiast with Engine.

Can't think of 3, 4, & 5 that would stand out above others.

Re: Your top five kits?

you obviously haven't seen a fujimi enthusiasts kit.
their only failing is their age and technologies have moved on.

Re: Your top five kits?

Being a detail freak, this one's right up my alley:

Individual Kit:
1/9 Protar Ducati 750 Sport
1/24 Gunze Jaguar E-Type (High-Tech version)
1/6 Tamiya Harley Davidson FLH w/sidecar
1/43 Tameo Ferrari 312T (WCT 75)
1/24 Hiro Porsche 917LH

Any of these kits would make a very impressive model straight out of the box!

Favorite Detail Series:
Model Factory Hiro (anything full detail)
Tameo WCT and Superkits
Tamiya 1/6 Bikes and 1/12 Cars
Fujimi Enthusiast Series
Gunze Sangyo High-Tech (especially the bikes!)
