"photo itch" : That is the best mis-spelling this week
Sums it up really well photo etch gives me an itch too.
When I look at a kit and see all that lovely photo etch then I think "Nice !! It will be gorgeous when it's finished "
and then I think about all those fiddly parts
and close the box and build something less complicated

This may hhelp you decide which way you want to jump. I have supplied a link to a build I did of the Dragon offering and was not the happiest camper with what was on offer, that being said the Bronco kit ios not perfect either but is in my opinion the best of the bunch. It is also true that the Bronco kit will test your skills much more.
