Half decent diecast (or plastic) desk models
Discussion
Hello 
I've always had a bit of a thing for the B1 Lancer, the SR71 and the B-2 spirit.
So much so I would like some models of them - ideally metal but high quality plastic is workable too. I don't have any painting tools / supplies (or ability!), nor the space to learn sadly so I assume prebuilt + painted is the only option??. If they could be 15-20 cm per model (on a stand maybe) that would be fantastic. Not too big but not so small you can't appreciate the lines and details.
Do half decent suppliers of pre-made models exist or should I be begging a favour off a model maker on PH and buying them the kits to build & paint for me
ETA: Research has taken me to sites like: https://www.diecastairplane.com/store/c/619-B-2-Sp... and https://pangsmodelsandhobbies.com/search?q=sr-71 where I can see a wiiiiide variety in price points. Not sure of any known brands etc so am open to advice
