Personally, I like WW2 American in 1:35. I do have some modern
kits from Shanghai Dragon but I've been sitting on them for a few
years.
You might want to tryout some 1:48. They're all
the rage in Milan.
Seriously, they are quite popular.
Enjoy the Forum. It's a nice place with nice people. Mind
your manners and help others when you can and you'll find that this is
the most civil place on the InterWeb.
