Here are a couple of pics of the Italeri M1 Sherman I reviewed a while back. The model is OOB except for the jerry cans and boxes on the stowage rack.

Very nice. I just picked up another one to complete my M4A1 trilogy:
AMT/Esci M4A1 75mm with Armo early hull/turret conversion.
Matchbox/Revell M4A1 76mm (using Esci upper hull).
and finally the OOB Italeri/Esci M4A1.
These little tanks are much fun.

Thanks you Guys.
Sabot : I agree. This kit has a nice little engine and a floor and tranny cover for the interior. I have another, and plan to build it with the engine bay open.
On this one I didn't get the engine positioned just right, and once the hull was closed up I saw my mistake, so I closed the cover. I'm looking forward to seeing your Trilogy.
