  1. otto skorzeny –

    It’s not the best fitting model I’ve ever put together and the instructions are pretty vague. Required a lot of filler and the decals were crusty (not sure what else to call it). But I think I paid $5 for the model, so you get what you pay for I guess. Just to be clear, this isn’t a snap-together – requires cement/glue.

  2. will dolan –

    Fast delivery. Excellent product.

  3. Henry C. Dieckmann –

    I really enjoyed this kit, it looks great when finished and matches my 148 scale Huey helicopter perfectly. Highly recommend kit.

  4. Michael Tonks –

    includes pilots and a little Eric Estrada CHiPs guy on a motorcycle. it’s so cool !

  5. RenderDad –

    very good and fast devlivery

  6. otto skorzeny –

    Fun little kit. Wanted to do a Vietnam-era Loach-looking helicopter but didn’t want to spend $50 and this kit fit the bill. Minimal gaps to fill on seams. A quick tip – put the skids on towards the end of the build as they have tiny anchor pins that break easily.

  7. Ted Nomura –

    When I ordered this, I thought it was a play toy and instead it was a model that had to be put together. I was sort of mislead.

  8. chet aman –

    もとは、かつてフジミ模型から出ていた製品ではないかと思います。小型機なので1／72だと豆粒ですが、1/48ぐらいが丁度いいです。値段の点でもお買い得でしょう。

  9. Billy Bouncer –

    Excellent

  10. the strangeguy –

    Very pleased with my purchase

  11. Ana Lee Wade –

    I bought one of these a few weeks ago mostly for the included motorcycle model (I’m building 1:48 autobots). While I’ve never built anything from Academy, the lack of surface details on the helicopter’s control panel (no dials, but the cops get really nice molded details), the poorly- translated Korean to English instructions (D-13 became F-15 Even when written as D-13 in Korean), and the poor quality of the decals (the Kawasaki logo for the motorcycle was a solid line on mine) make me not want to purchase another kit from this company.
