I saw the "Favorite Kit to Build More Than Once" topic but I wondered who here will build a kit only once, then never again?

[Lunajammer]

Every kit. I haven't doubled up on any. As the saying goes, "So many kits, so little time." And I would add, "Never say never again."

[Ace-Garageguy]

Anything worth doing once is worth doing to excess.

Not sure I would build another AMT Gremlin.

[High octane]

I've built Revell's '41 Willys a few times and have another one started.

[slusher]

When l finished the 33 willys l said l would not build another one, just don't like the kit and it was not fun to build for me...

[disabled modeler]

Id really build anything but there are models i could build as many as I could get a hold of...there is always another way to be built from the last version done.  

[Harry P.]

Generally I only build one of any given model. Once I've built one, my interest is off to other subjects. The only exceptions that I can think of offhand are the Monogram 1/8 Jaguar and the Big T (built 2 of each of those).

I build slow so I don't have many duplicates. But every time I finish something, I think I should build another with the 'lessons learned'.  My Heller Citroen is the poster child for that one!  

[gtx6970]

The only kits  I have built just one of , is the IMC Little Red Wagon ( aka Lindberg kit now ) and the MPC Wild Willie Borsch Altered. And I have no  intentions to do another one of either

 

I've only got one of the AMT 1962 Belair's done, but thats going to change soon

[brad4321]

There are far too many models that I want to build that I will never have time for to consider doing one model twice. 

[rel14]

Thats the best part of building, each time you can do a little more, and or modified stuff to inprove it,,the opitions are endless,,

[kataranga]

I have multiples of several kits to build different versions. Some are new-in-box, some are built-ups. Sometimes I'll build a kit now that I built when I was younger, either to replace one that was destroyed or one that I still have on display to see how far I've progressed.

I'm always try to revisit a past built model. Most of the time, I give a good 3-4 months before building the same model. I always try to find other ways to do stuff. Plus, being new to the custom model genre, I always thing of the best details after the fact. 

[Austin T]

Lindberg Model T custom pick up, Nuff said.

[OldTimer50707]

I'm still waiting to get "one" done  

[scalenut]

the revell/model king Henry J,, but honestly I think after that first build I'm not so scared of it anymore

This one. It was so bad, and so far from a snapkit that I even threw the box away. I cant remember the name of it and dont give a fig. It fought me all the way. Check out the gap at the bottom of the windshield. UGH.

[CEKPETHO BCE]

There are a few models I will never build again.

 

After building a Revell Ferrari Daytona (Miami Vice) I feel like never building another one. Same goes for Revell Shelby Cobra. For some reason I can't see myself ever building another one of those.
