I know this has been discussed here,but someone on Kitmaker laid it out real nice and clear in one spot,thought it would be helpful,maybe even worthy of a sticky.
A word of caution about vendors during this time of the year.
Remember not to order from any of the vendors listed below! They have been under the PA Attorney General’s lawsuit and investigation. I just saw another modeler being scammed by them on FB posting - one of those uninformed modelers (unfortunately, this happens every year still). B/c these scums own a number of modeling websites that take your money and either never send your purchases or take forever to fulfill, so you could easily miss them and lured by their low prices.
Warning
