The downside to building them...

Response to Build them !!!!! They may not be the best....
Because the molding is not very good there is a ton of cleanup. Every part has large seams to remove. And the fit is not very good so you will need to do more than the usual puttying and sanding. The Panther is tricky since the upper hull is just too short. You can make attractive models from them, but are they really worth the aggrevation? Probably a lot of people would be put off by the poor molding and fit.

One of the benefits of (especially Tamiya kits) is the moldings are clean and crisp and everything fits very well... modelling is not a chore then, and if you want to add extra detail its not hard. Versus a poor kit where you struggle just to get the major parts together.
