What is the most expensive (or largest) kit in your stash?

A pair of Italeri C-130s in 1/48th scale.  The Heller Victory in 1/100th comes close.  I should mention the Victory was purchased from Model Expo as a close-out item for less than the full-blown retail I paid for one of the C-130s on a binge buy.

Mine right now is the 1/48 academy f4b phantom 2 Because I also  got the photo etch sets that eduard just came out for it.

I also likem cheap, most of my stash comes from model swap meets.. The most expensive has to be the Revival metal bodied Mercedes 163 prewar Grand Prix kit I got as an anniversary gift, about $120. I like smaller scale kits so none of them are particularly big, maybe my vacuform 1/72  TU 22.

Biggest would be the Revell B-1B as well.  Most expensive would probably be the Trumpeter F/A-18E.  But it came with default VFA-143 decals, so I see that as a win/win considering I transitioned them into that scheme.  :)

I have a few other big kits in the stash like the 1:58 C-130J , and a couple of Monograms vintage bomber kits.  Those have always been nice big kits.  

I'll play...

Most expensive:  Fine Molds 1/72 Millennium Falcon

Biggest:  Polar lights 1/350 USS Enterprise Refit

Funny thing is that I don't do that much Sci fi.  I mostly build 1/48 modern jets.

Biggest in my stash?...Well its not in my "stash" any longer, I built it but now don't know what to do with it, short of hanging from my hobby room ceiling which I'm not a big fan of.. Revell Monogram 1/48 Boeing B-29 "Humpin Honey" . Ha, you can check it out in all it's glory in this forum, just search "Revell Boeing B-29" to view pictures.   Most expensive...so far, gotta be my Academy 1/400 Premium Edition Titanic, ($225) what a super cool kit! Photo-etch, wooden decks and correct bow anchor tub to name a few.

Ok, my turn...

My biggest is Tamiya's 1/350 USS Missouri and my most expensive is also a Tamiya...a Supermarine Spitfire Mk. IXc in 1/32 with some goodies from Barracuda to go with it! The Spitfire is currently on the bench awaiting its first dabs of glue!

Mine? Most expensive is the Finemolds 1/72 Millenium Falcon. Biggest? Dragon's 1/72 Saturn V Rocket.

My most expensive is definitely the new tool Yamato. Although I did drop a lot on aftermarket goodies for my Trumpy f-14b. My biggest is either my 1/200 Arizona or 1/350 Nimitz both by trumpy.

Mine would be the Revell 1/72 scale USS Gato fleet submarine.

I'll play.....biggest is probably the 1/72 Gato....I've also got a 1/16 Wright Flyer that should be pretty large when done.   Most expensive is a MFH 1/20 Gurney Eagle T-1G

My biggest and most expensive kit at the same time is HK's B-17G in 1/32. That thing is huge!

My biggest is a toss up between my 1/48 Monogram B-58's (2 of them) and the AMT KC135. The most expensive is probably the Hobby boss F3H Demon 1/48 or the Hobby boss TBM 1/48

Tamiya's 1/350 USS Enterprise (CVN-65).  It was also one the first models I built since coming back to the hobby about 13 years ago.  I look at it now and see all kinds of errors.  I hope to redo it again in the semi-near future. lol.

I'll toss in my lot. The most expensive kit is the Academy 1/48 MH-53 Sikorsky Sea Stallion. Paid $95.00 for it when it was released. Not a helicopter enthusiast but the kit has the markings for my brothers squadron, HM 214, of which he was the commander. My biggest kit is a close one between the MH-53 and the Tamiya 1/350 HMS Prince of Wales. I'm honing my modeling skills a bit before I tackle either of these. especially the MH-53.

After utterly ruining a vintage 1/25 AMT AMX Javelin kit with an un-fixable painting disaster, it's now the 1:35 Trumpeter Geschutzwagen Tiger fur 17cm Kanone 72(Sf). Quite a huge armor kit.

Biggest is the Heller Victory. The hull is pretty much done, but the addition of the bowsprit and masts will make her at least 1 meter long by 1 high.

Theist expensive is a Combrig  1/350 Scharnhorst (WW1) that I'm in for $ 250 for the basic resin kit and have not started sourcing out details for yet. Plenty of PE in the future.

Pikers. DeAgostini "Sovereign of the Seas", about 1100mm long x 900mm high, it retails over a grand. Parts work kit, I only have about half of it so far, and what I have weighs about 10 pounds.

Hellers "Le Soleil Royal". I've been working on it for almost a year, little at a time about 60% done. $300 new?

Largest and most expensive is my Trumpeter 1/16 King Tiger.

I could pay for whatever kit I want, but it's the principle of the thing.

Therefore, I keep my cutoff  right around $65-$70.

The only exception I made was for the International Space Station, which was a tic more expensive.

One of the most fun builds I've ever had. I truly enjoyed my time at the bench with that one.

Oh, in addition to it being the most expensive one I own, it's also the biggest. So big, in fact, that if I decide to take it out of my fort, I will have to do some disassembling.

Well I think my most expensive at the moment is my Trumpeter 1/32 MIG-23MLD with my Dragon 1/32 ME110D right behind it, still sitting in the stash for aabout a year now.

Biggest is the Rev/Mon 1/48 B-29 Superfort. Most expesive is an MPM 1/48 HE-177.

My biggest is the Revell 1/48 B1-B that I built in the "Swing Wing" GB a while ago.

Most expensive is the Tamiya 1/12 Ferrari Enzo.  Hell of a kit though...

In my stash Revelle 1/24 Huey Gun Ship rest is 1/48 and 1/35.      ACESES5      ON BENCH DRAGON STUG 3 AUSF B.                         

Tamiya 1/6 scale Honda CT70 motorcycle. Biggest and most expensive :)

OK, now youre just bragging. :) That should take you as long as it took to set up the real deal. Post pics.

Matchbox 1/72 Flower Class Corvette ship. Got if for a song at an IPMS show, But I wish I had some of the P-E to take it to the next level. Little help?
