Years ago I struggled to turn Hasegawa's 1/72 scale M4A3E8 into an M4A3E8... this kit looks so good it might tempt me back into 1/35 scale!

Out of ignorance I would ask whether this kit will serve as a late war European vehicle without too much fuss?

You rather go directly to the Tamiya 35346 kit which was issued in 2015 and provide all you need for an M4A3E8 in European Theater - WWII

... and many thanks Talal for the review and bravo for the nice finish !
Mine is almost done also with few up-date (small photo-etch...) but It still needs to go to "paint shop" like the first Tamiya ETO Easy Eight I've built two years ago (
