I'm not convinced the kit is going away. Yes, there are less of them; but, building is still a big part of this hobby to many of us. If you haven't tried building a kit or from scratch, you are missing a very large portion of the fun of this hobby! Can't convince you of this? It's to bad and it's your loss!

To talk like people who enjoy building models are like the dinosaurs, is talking out the side of your neck.
