Nothing in my scales or interest areas that I don’t already have…

There's no way I'd get a F-16 from Italeri when there's so many better kits.

I already have the White Scout Car in my US and Russian armies. I can get another for my French army

I also should try and find another Leopard 1A5 to build for my Italian army. I never knew until now that they had those.

Exactly. The only Italeri Viper kit I had, the belly tank was too large for scale.

I’ve got two… their NATO A, and their C. Both kits look nice, although I haven’t built either one yet.

I haven't been the biggest fan of Italeri. Their Growler that I started is absolutely horrible and so incorrect. I saw their Super Hornet and it's the same.

I liked their Osprey and OH-13. I have a few others in the stash - but ya, they aren't Tamiya/Hasegawa

Ok I will say that the Osprey isn't too bad even if it's designed from the prototype. At least it doesn't have an identity crisis like the Hobby Boss does.

They do have some good kits but they will always be on my hate to build list. It's not that I don't build them, I just hate doing it. The B-26K was another example, too much work and extra stuff to make it look like the box said it was.
