.... shudder... brings back horrible memories of building a 1/72 kit of the Stuart that was a Chinese knock off of a poor Hasegawa kit, in plastic that wouldn't glue, every part covered in flash and ill fitting... aargghhh.

"Lee Models" was the brand that I recall IIRC. I had their version of Hasegawa's Grant (or Lee, I forget). It was a straight copy of the Hasegawa kit, right down to the layout on the sprue. It might even live on in the depths of the stash as I don't think I ever built it.

This was 'science treasury' an appallingly badly moulded knock off in hideous plastic and a ton of flash.

So presumably Early FJ so you don't have to paint splintermuster or sumpfmuster. Cunning. All you will need are some nuns in boots and the Home Guard.
