SabingaMartin Publications is back with us this month, adding to their line with decals. And these decals are a companion to previously published books.
It has been a little over a year since SabingaMartin Publications brought us the “Lion and Lioness of the Line”, Volume 5 and Volume 6, books on the first Sherman of the IDF. As a follow up to those popular books, Sabinga Martin is now bringing us the companion decals. These decals represent the first and early Shermans of the IDF and allow the builder to represent all Shermans that were presented in the books. The decals are printed by Cartograf and are available in 3 scales.

First and Early Shermans of the IDF
SIM-001 - 1:35 Scale
SIM-002 - 1:48 Scale
SIM-013 - 1:72 Scale

Armorama would like to thank Dr. Robert Manasherob for providing the information and image.

It's great to see this release covering regular Shermans, especially with markings provided in all three popular armor scales.

For those without the books, is there a list of Sherman types included in the decals?

This is awesome news! Thanks for letting us know. I just started building a first IDF Sherman (Meir/Mania) for the "Sands of Israel" campaign and these decals will be perfect. Can't wait.

Thanks to all for posting This decal allow build of 13++ tanks that are based on M4A2, M4 105 gun and M4 with 75 mm gun. Also M4A2 and M4 105 without gun or M4 105 that its gun was deactivated before the sell to Israel and was repairf by IDF by adding a metal ring around the hole in the barrel. Also some of the markings like the star of David, the white 3 arrows, the Battalion and brigade emblems and number can be used for other IDF projects involve Half tracks, Jeeps and other armor.
