I had one of their Neiuport 17 models and it was great. Very scale and a good flyer. Unfortunately a control rod solder joint failed and I lost elevator control and it crashed. They have all the parts to make a competition scale plane if you want to go that route.

Here are a couple of pics of their Stearman. They did the custom paint job for me (it's the "Recall" scheme)

My MAN! Hangin' from the ceiling! You'd love my P-38, P-51, P-40, F4U, Curtiss Pusher, Extra 300S, Stearman living room. My old lady wants to have me committed. Her friend's collective jaws drop when they come in.

I don't know much about 3Seabees, but they appear to be US distributors of the aircraft models built by the Philipine company Kalderén & Welch Model Airplanes Inc. You will find their website here: [link=http://www.kwmairpl.com.ph/CompanyProfiles.asp]K&W[/link].
Göran Kalderén who is from Sweden has a long history of constructing and building very fine scale models.
