Featuring authentic welded hull textures, assembly-type wide T66 tracks, and weighted components for realism, this kit offers an engaging build experience for enthusiasts seeking historical accuracy and craftsmanship.

## Description

This 1/48 scale model recreates the M4A3E8 Sherman "easy Eight" as it appeared in the European Theater of WWII. As it was one of the final Sherman types, it had the benefit of design updates developed from battle experience including a hardy welded late production hull, 76mm main gun, and new Horizontal Volute Spring Suspension (HVSS) with wider tracks, making for the significantly more comfortable ride that led to its nickname of "Easy Eight. ". Requires paint and assembly.

Review: Great kit! - I love putting Tamiya models together!! The instructions are great and everything fits! The details are crisp and accurate. This particular kit has some small fiddly parts, so I wouldn’t recommend it for the beginner. Overall a fun and satisfying build! Highly recommended.
