What's the Best Tiger Tank Kit?

Okay it's about time I build a Tiger tank. I'm surprised that I have held out this long not building this German beast. With all the available kits out there, what would you say is the best for detail and the pure fun to build? They are all around the same price range, so here are my hobby shop options. Thanks! Image

Personally I who'd get the dragon last production kt. I've built that kit myself and it's spot on. The Tamiya kits build well but are not worth there cost compared to what you get with the dragon kit

i say pick a dragon kit
they make real good tigers and have some pe and such thing in the box
so no extra costs
the instructions are not so good with most but if you take your time it will work out just fine
and i'm a dragon builder (i think) as.most of my kits are from them
and i like the.look of these kits as they have a lot of detail and imo the overall quality is the best

okay so i'm not the only one with that thought
but at my local shop they ask about 30 euro's so 40-45 dollars
wich is not to bad because i think that kit has a interior aswell (not 100%sure)
