Since I have been modeling since the early 50's, I can honestly say that I have built kits by all of the listed manufacturers

I've done at least more than one from all of the companies you listed and a few more. If you are asking which company I like best, that too depends on the kit, the subject and many other factors. Company Shmumpany, just build 'em.

I voted Monogram but I have to agree with everyone else, over the years I've built many differant companies. It mainly comes down to who makes the kit of the subject i feel like building. Bob

I've built all but Wiliams and Life Like and quite a few not mentioned. This poll need a redo if it's to be of any value. Mind you if it asked what my favs are I'd have to say old Auroura and Tamiya.

I started building in 63 and I can say that I have at least one kit from just about every thing out there.I'm from Detroit and was shopping Squadron long before the move to Carrollton (DFW) Texas. The toppers are monogram, revell, hasegawa, tamiya and airfix.

I've also built models from many of those companies except William Bros and AMT. I guess I am going to have to vote for Monogram, but I like all the companies that you have listed
3d modelling is an option a true mental excercise in frusrtation

So it is hard to pick one kit. I like to build whatever I'm in the want to build whether it be a car or figurines or aircraft

I voted AMT because it's what I have the most of, but the oft-suggested "multiple" option would make for a more accurate poll. Could we have a 2.0 version of the poll soon?

A single answer won't work. The question asked demands multiple answers.

I agree. I have multiple kits from multiple manufacturers. It is not possible to pick just one company.

Why don't you set up a poll that actually allows people to select more than one? You asked a question that obviously would have multiple answers, but then restrict those who answer to one vote? Rather limited list, too.

Just my humble opinion.

I voted for Tamiya, but I have built kits by Esci, Revell-Germany, DML, Trumpeter, Panzershop, Armo & Academy. I do have kits by Accurate Miniatures & Hasegawa but haven't done anything to them.
