Collectors' Hint - What are my choices with Plastic Model purchasing and collecting?It is the nature of the Space and Aviation market that Space and Aircraft Model Kits of important space or aviation vehicles tend to be limited in production or alternatively sell very quickly. Two different examples are the premier Apollo 11 kits or the P-51 Mustang. Many model kits are 're-launched' on significant anniversaries.Typically, the two key choices when purchasing plastic model kits are:i) Make the Plastic Model or ii) Preserve the Plastic Model 'pristine' in its box and with all original plans and parts for the future.The former choice i) provides the enjoyment and satisfaction of model making, more so when they are rare or unusual models.The latter choice ii) can sometimes result in a purchase worth thousands of dollars in later years or decades. There are hundreds of examples.Of course, a 3rd choice is to benefit from both and purchase two models! Limited Editions are exceptional examples!Note: This is serious and enjoyable premium quality Art Space and Aviation Collecting.
