>>8518789Depends on where you are geographically (your cunt models are usually cheaper), where do you buy them (some dealers are notoriously overpricing some models) and what general level of quality you expect from the model (Sure Revell planes from 1990s may be cheap but stuff like convex panel lines will be ok for some modelers and a solid no-no for others).
Zvezda indeed has a nice balance of price-quality for EE (customs fees may screw this up in other countries).
Tamiya is good too (older models may be a bit primitive and unrealistic but they are easy to fit and build thus perfect for less experienced modelers)
Some new Airfix models are very good too (I enjoyed their 1/72 Mig-17. Still worse than Eduard Mig-15 in small details but definitely worth the price.
