What happens when you can't find that kit you just have to have at the local discount store or hobby emporium - because they don't make it? Contact one of the model companies listed below and tell them what you want! And be sure to tell them you found them on Starship Modeler! Note: We have not dealt with all of these companies - where we have, we'll give you our honest opinion of their goods and services.
