Academy based this kit on the pretty poor old Tamiya Panther A. The upper hull and turret are new. Detail is not too bad but the proportions of the turret are way off... like the old Tamiya 1/35 and 1/24 kits were. Vinyl tracks instead of links. I guess the $49 price is a clue that the kit isnt too much.
