While i wouldn't say i'm surprised there is a demand, i AM surprised that they are making it a huge complex with so many different expensive kits. Its going to cost you a few hundred to build the whole thing, and in the very end, they are boring, uninteresting structures that take up a huge amount of real estate, and I'm guessing most modelers don't have that kind of space to devote to ethanol plants. I just don't believe in paying $80 for an oversized "corn unloading shed". It looks like those fermentation tanks and corn silo/elevators don't need to be that much either. I'm almost positive there are rix/plastruct tanks and silos to match that would look just fine.

I think Walthers should rethink this, but its to late. only time will tell how well they sell. we'll know in a year i suppose.
