This looks really nice. I especially like the details on the rear hull and the tracks, which were common enough in real life but not in plastic. It would be great set up with a scout car or a universal carrier. We need more British figures to go with it. Could a US PTO version be far behind?

Alwas nice to see a new Sherman but even nicer to see a Tasca one. THis is a great addition to the family offeriong a later production glacis and Splash rail to the DML Sherman III kit. At first I thought this was a Pullman Built one like the sole Aussie M4A2 but it has some differences in the cast numbers for the hoods, the Radio Pot and the MG housing. They have got the complex shape of the hoods spot on. Well done Tasca Al

I've preordered mine direct from Tasca. would this suit a Polish Sherman III in Italy ? Any feedback on a particular machine this one would be good for ? Cheers Paul
