Online Model Kit Stores?

Recommended Posts

Can anyone recommend any online stores that sell model kits? I have no idea if anyone here is actually into model kits or not but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask anyways. I haven't done anything with model kits in 15-20 years but kind of thinking of getting back into them. The local selection of stores that would carry model kits around where I live is abysmal and practically nonexistent.

 

Also, why the hell do companies make models in the same series so many different scales, 1/350, 1/420, 1/537, 1/650, 1/1000, 1/1400, 1/2500  :angry:

Them are not sizes but they are scales mainly for ships. 1/350 is is large and 1/2500 is tiny.

Haha yeah, I worded that wrong and meant to put scales, no idea why I put sizes instead, fixed it in the OP.

 

Thanks for the link, I completely forgot about them. I used to go to their open houses they'd have years and years ago at their warehouse.

I have some WW2 battleships in 1/350 and they are about 3 feet long.
