Will you buy pre-built structures?

[Anonymous]

I am working on my very first structure kits this week and there is no way I would pass on all this fun. If that sounded sarcastic it was not meant that way. Sometimes I get aggravated and do some low muttering but I am always surprised at how fast the time flies when I am working on them.

I don't like the the idea of pre-builts because if you paint them they are easier if you paint them in pieces. But if it fits my era and it's the best I can do, I'll go for it.

I’m getting aggravated with Walthers and others because many of their structures that fit the era and location that I’m modeling are only available as “Built-ups.” At this point, I can not get myself to purchase a prebuilt structure. Hey, I’m not ready to start scratch building my structures, but to buy something that you just plop down on your layout seems to take away from the hobby.

Just curious if others are also frustrated by this trend toward pre-built.
