Sorry if there has been a previous post on this same subject/question. I was just wondering if anyone could tell me how many Tiger 1 kits Academy released. I know they had one with interior and one without, did they do a Early, Mid and Late? Also, what is the quality of the kit, has anyone built it?

If I'm not mistaken, the older kits that you can get with an interior were the early, and mid models. I built the mid with the interior, and it was a pretty good kit. The instructions can be a little vague at times, the plastic is a little soft, and there were some fit problems here and there. Nothing tragic though. They did just release a brand new Tiger kit at the same time DML released their first 3 in 1 initial Tiger kit, and I think that is a late version, but once again, not %100 sure. Hope this helps,

btw-I have a couple pics of the Tiger I built in my gallery.

Are you sure Academy released a new Tiger 1 kit (late you think) earlier this year when DML realeased their initial? I can't find anything on the net of a new Academy Tiger 1?
