The kits forum is for the discussion of model kits. Typically questions on availability or certain subjects and quality of existing kits are posted here. Short reviews are good here too.

Well, just to be different, I'll vote for the following:

WWW2 - Tasca Luchs (best kit period)
Tristar Pz. 38t (tracks maybe be an issue)
Tamiya Jeep (just doesn't get much easier)
Tamiya Char B1 bis (competing with the Luchs for best kit ever)
Tamiya Cromwell or Centaur (the 180 degree opposite of a Dragon
kit. Couldn't be simpler to build)

Post WW2 - Tamiya M1A2 Abrams (very simple to build and the figures and
stowage are included)
Tamiya M2 or M2A2 Bradley (same logic as the Abrams)
Tamiya Humvee (same logic as the Abrams and Bradley)
Tamiya Centurion (yes a super oldie, but a great challenge
and easy to build)

Finally, I'd recommend a week long challenge. That way, those of us who might have some family scheduling issues can still compete.

Jim
