A South Korean modeling forum has posted a review of the Academy Hetzer.

Looks like a sharp kit. The price in Korea is only $20! I hope the price in the US won't be higher than $30.

It even comes with a masking seal for the 3 color camo scheme! Brilliant.
Looks good !
Be nice if they scaled it up for either 1/24th or 1/25th scale.
Looks sharp. I love the fact that it comes with figures. Is it unreasonable of me to get bent out of shape when my tank doesn't come with a crew?

The camo masks are a real nice touch. It looks a bit like the Tamiya kit, even with link-and-lengths.

Maybe Academy benchmarked the Tamiya kit. But Academy claims that this new Hetzer kit is in line with the Academy Tiger with interior in a sense that Academy took its own initiative to create this kit.
Anyway, what matters to me is for $20-30 this is a superb kit. I'll buy 2 or 3 (I have two unbuilt Tamiya Hetzer!).
Hmmmm....since I've built the only Hetzer that was in my stash (DML Early), this one looks like a nice candidate for a 2012 SA (Stash Addition!!)

No, it is not unreasonable.
Tamiya includes figures with their 1/25th scale tanks.
Academy doe not.
Vehicles look barren without figures.
