How many unfinished Kits do you have?

Just a few weeks ago I only had two of these kits. I've done a little impulse buying since then.
I'd love to hear your opinion of the Academy Enterprise kit. I've only ever built model from Academy and I thought it was the best kit I ever built.
BTW I haven't worked on a model in at least 10 years. Who knew there was a company better than Aurora?

It will be a while before I get to it. I haven't built a ship in a while and I really want to get the Enterprise right. I actually got the Saratoga as a warm-up for it.

But I read that the Tamiya Enterprise island is way out of scale, too narrow. I don't want to build Chinese kits so this is about the only option for the Enterprise I have.

Just finished three hangar queens in less than a month. One more should be done in a few days and another in about two weeks. To be continued pile is shrinking rapidly
 
Once I'm retired, (soon I hope) I'll be finishing up all those partially finished kits (again I hope). Right now it's hard to finish the ones for the group builds
 
UPDATE: Bottom one now finished

A-6E Tram - White
S-A/B Viking - White DONE

CT-155 Hawk - Managed to bugger up the NFTC marking on the tail.
