stupid questions time.

[Steel Penguin]

as the title says.
im considering  joining in, but am a lot in the dark concerning kits available, so ill ask my peers for details 1st.  what kits are available for the pig in 1:48?  id rather ones with a good chunk of ordanace and with crew, but im realy just wanting to know options, ( and possibly base prices or links to such) ive had a quick search of the site and didnt find anything for that so ill ask nicely here. ive had a quick skim of hannants and the hobby boss ones seam a lot of wedge if just bare airframes, or the acadamay c is there, any thing else?  the scale choice is so that after the build it can be used with everything else.

Thanks in advance

lets see, Kitech and Academy have 1/48 versions of the aardvark, i think revellogram has one to.
shouldnt be that hard to find

If you don't want to shell out the quid for Hobbyboss, go with Academy.  Decent kit and prices are dropping becase of people dumping them for HB.  Stay away from the Chinese knockoffs.  Total cack-only good for parts.  Trust me on that one........

Scooter is right, the prices on the academy have dropped in the year since  I last shopped for them. I was still on the fence about this build but the price drop is enticing. (Girlfriend says I have too many kits... and I can not argue!) ...maybe I can get an exception.

Don't forget the HobbyCraft F-111 which is almost an Academy kit packaged in a HobbyCraft box.  The quality is certainly better than the other companies named above.  The ordnance selection in the Academy kits is a disappointing selection of Mk.82 500 pound general purpose bomb shapes which are provided in only one of the kits offered (Libyan Raider markings IIRC).
