Just wondering how much glue will you actually need to finish up this monster!

I have watched the movies and looked at the parts, but to me it looks like a big toy, the tracks and the hull. It might be that I am not used to seeing a Sherman this big
Does Dragon plan on a line of 1/6 tanks or was this a one time deal, also what about an interior? as for painting and 1 quart auto paint gun might be the ticket with 5 gallons of surplus Olive Drab. Who got the lucky job of building the review Kit?
Have fun guys

Jim, it is a scaled up version of the 1/35th offering,with more complex track blocks and extended end connectors. But, there are simplified details /shortcuts they took.In this scale, with modest skills, it is easy to rebuild what isn't quite right.

Dont know what their plans are but its not a one time deal. They have already released a Pz.Kpfw II. Charles King won one at our IPMS competion last year in Stockholm. Everybody was laughing as nobody knew how he was gonna manage to take it home with him. The box was huge!!
