hi all

i am looking to begin a collection of star wars models, which i will build myself. i have looked online but only seem able to find kits for children. could anyone help with the best place to find ADULT star wars models to build?

thanks in advance for your help, may the force be with you!!

Have a browse through here :-

star wars models | eBay

There are quite a few including those from AMT ERTL and finemolds amongst others.

Hope that helps a bit!

jim, i have found that Finemolds makes the best star wars models. they have the x-wing, y-wing, tie fighter, tie interceptor, slave I, and millenium falcon all in 1/72 scale. they have newer releases of the x-wing, tie fighter and snowspeeder in 1/48 scale.

i have posts on here for my builds of the x-wing, tie interceptor and slave I you can check out. their build quality are second to none in my opinion and are definitely "adult" kits as you put it. i'd say these are the kits you are looking for.

they sadly don't have a walker or at-at (hopefully some day), but if you're looking for the ships, this is the way to go.

i've bought some from this site before: http://www.hlj.com/index.html

These are the star wars kits:

I'm trying to prise the AMT Gold editions of the X-wing and Tie Fighter, from my friend who happens to have several of each up his loft !
