BUY THOSE PUPPIES!!!!!!!!!!!!! They will look good in your stash and anywhere else you put them. Once you have them, you don't have to worry about price or remorse 'cause you got a good deal on 'em!
Cheers for big red buttons!!

If they're a good price, then I would encourage you to consider buying them.

If you buy them and regret it you can always sell them.

If you don't buy them and regret it you can never go back and change your mind.

If price is not an issue - GO FOR IT.

If price is an issue - go for it if they are under $40US or around $32euro (IMHO).

You will never feel bad after buying them. As Dean said, you will regret it if you pass on them and could not find them later.

They are both very good Sherman kits. Personally, I like the Firefly version.

I would go with the Firefly for the reason that the composite kit can only really be built with the HB turret as the rare Late HB was not fitted to them (or at least not for the marking options supplied and none have surfaced in any photos except very early 47 deg hull A2's in USSR service).
DML also forgot to supply the turret lower for theHigh Bustle Turret.
The firefly is good to go
