Basic modle kit
Just wandering if there is a basic modle kit out there with all many or all they stuff we need to help us put the minis together. Or will we need to get everything separately?

Re: Basic modle kit
Unfortunately there really isn't a one size fits all kit to start with miniatures. However here is what I suggest from my experiences.
Hobby Knife (very sharp)
Super Glue or Plastic Weld
Paint Brush
Emory Board (plastic sanding file)
Paint (GW, Reaper, or Vajello)
Water Cup
Good Lighting source (Daylight bulb lamp)
Paper Towl
Patience... lots of patience. (Unavailable for sale)

Make that lockable tweezers - it is annoying to get that teeny part to the spot and then forget to squeeze.

Citadel makes some nice tool kits and even workstations meant for the Warhammer 40,000 game range, but which work just as well with pretty much anything else. If you're looking to one-stop shop for tools, that may be the way to go... though Citadel's paint brushes are pretty unremarkable quality-wise.

Re: Basic modle kit
Gw does have some sweet hobby tools by their price is nuts. Gale force nine has affordable equivalents not to mention a little research and you can grab more tools for 1/2 the price that are still decent quality.

Re: Basic modle kit
I always found that Privateer Presses stuff to be good quality. Granted they are pricy but not to GW standards, and you get quality out of them over GW.

Thanks for the help!
