Model kits

[jena]

Does anyone here have much experience with building models? I am a RMS Titanic geek and I want a decent model. Toyworld have a 1:700 Airfix model for around $70. Are Airfix a decent brand or am I better off with another brand.

That particular brand isn't bad, however a quick ebay search shows you can pick up a 1:700 scale much cheaper

Oh wow, much cheaper. When I've looked on eBay previously the prices have been crazy, especially for shipping. Thanks.
