I expect this will be a good value, much like the Hetzer. The figures are a nice addition. It is an interesting direction Academy is taking. I hope they continue with more. Maybe they will re-visit the M3 series, or give us an M2A4.

When it rains, it pours! Bronco's announced a kit of the 35(t) as well.

This one will probably cost a lot less than it's Bronco counterpart. I'm going to get it. I have the re-popped Tamiya/CMK kit and it is OK. I'm hoping this is a decent kit. Can't wait for a review. Jeff

Unless they make major changes in the M3s or at least don't base an M2A4 on the M3s, I wouldn't want any M2A4 Academy makes, The M3s are all so inaccurate that anything that is based on them is also going to be inaccurate. I'm sorry I simply don'y trust Academy to do any kit correctly. They have blown their chances so many times that I automatically assume that their kits are rubbish unless someone knowledgeable does an in depth accuracy review & declares them OK. _I_ am not laying down any cash on the assumption that they've done their homework.
