it'll say how many there are in the box.  If there are 2 models,
they're always going to be the quick-build/wargaming models.  The only
exceptions to that rule are Dragon's HMMWVs, which are 2 to a box but
have a
lot of tiny fiddly bits.  As far as I can tell, the Hat Armourfast line
are
all quick-build miniatures.  Italeri makes a wide variety of different
models, not just quick-build ones, but their boxes are fairly clearly
marked
as fast-assembly/wargaming if applicable.  And as I said before, if
there
are 2 in there, it's guaranteed at least one of them will be
quick-build.



These models are available in most hobby stores that sell 1/72 scale
kits.
But I've also used a few places online:

Thanks, guys!

Do the companies identify their wargames friendly kits differently? Or,
in
the case of Hat and Italeri, is that pretty much all they make?

Anyway try looking in your local hobby/model shop and you should find
what
you are looking for.

Thanks, Tony, but my local hobby store is pretty sad. This is why I
pretty
much have to buy stuff like this online.

I haven't done much with miniatures in a long time, and I'm looking to
get
back into it. This stuff is intriguing.
