Hi Ken,
In my opinon Tamiya still far and away offers the best quality kits. They may not load the box up with goodies or extreem detail parts but their kits fit well and are the most buildable.
Their new stug kit offers a very nice turned barrel and some basic photo etch as well as a fighting compartment interior. The new Dragon kits are very complex and while this may appeal to the alpha geeks amoung us, many will be put off by the high parts count and fit problems.

Merry Christmas to all
