and which ones the best?

Revell and Italeri both have 1/35 M-109 kits, and they may be the same kit with different markings. I did an Italeri 109 an few years ago and though it was a good kit, but I didn't scale it out or "count the bolts". Eduard has a PE set for it, too and I think AEF had an Israeli upgrade, but it's out of production. The only other Paladins listed at Greatmodels.com were in 1/285 scale.

Pfc,
Italeri and Revell of Germany both make one in 1/35th scale. I don't really know anything about either kit, but below is a link to a review on the Italeri kit. They are both listed on the Greatmodels website.

I'm fairly sure that only Italeri makes the M109A6 Paladin. Revell of Germany has the Germany variant of the M109A3 called the M109A3GA1. Italeri also produces(d) the short barreled M109 which could be made into an M109G (I have this kit) and the M109E4/G/A1/A2. I think there was also an IDF variant produced by Italeri as well as the 105mm M108.

Any way, the Italeri kit is your only choice for an M109A6 Paladin.

About 2 weeks ago i picked up an M 109 A6 by Revell. Kit # 03056. I was told that it is the same as the Italeri kit. The price (local hobby shop) was $30.00.

The Italeri M109A6 is the only version of the M109 series to be called the Paladin, and yes, only Italeri makes a kit of it.

The turret is nicely done, but the hul is the same one they have soldiered on with for all these years. Also, as with most Italeri kits, have teh putty handy as the parts suffer from dimples.

There is a nice build of a paladin over at missing-lynx right now.
