> At those shows there are always tons of vendors with plenty of kits to sell at more reasonable prices.

Bet they are not made in US, or they are from very small companies. I guess this is the future of these kits. With our weak enforcement of IP treaties, plastic models will simply come from overseas ??

A lot of the vendors do have American made kits, many have old Revell, Monogram, Aurora, etc....... Some of the really old kits can be expensive but most are not. Have rebuilt in adulthood several models that I built as a kid.

Unfortunately, most of the models you can find of modern US military equipment are already made overseas.....in Japan, Korea, Tiawan and China
