Re: 1/400 or 1/500?

I've looked at the 400 Scale Hangar forum and read some of the posts and their FAQ. I really don't want to join yet another forum at this time, just to ask some very basic questions, so at the risk of looking a gift horse in the mouth I'd like to post one more.
I've gathered that some manufacturers (Dragon?) include plastic parts in their 1/400 aircraft. I'd rather stick to metal-only. Which manufacturers make metal-only 1/400 models? Or, if it's easier, which don't?

Dragon has plastic wings and tails. Herpa uses some plastic in their models. Gemini and Aeroclassics are all metal.
