Hi,

Just from a simple construction viewpoint I liked the Academy version more
than the AFV Club. The sprue attachment points on the AFV Club suspension
are a pain to get rid of. The top skids on the AFV suspension are also a
royal pain to clean up. Then there's the road wheel issue -- AFV Club's road
wheels are overscale and mine had sinkholes down the centre.
My vote goes to Academy on the ease-of-build side. I'll let others comment
on accuracy issues.
Cheers
Bill Inglee
