US MEDIUM TANK M4A3E8 SHERMAN EASY EIGHT PLASTIC MODEL KIT 1/35 TAMIYA

About this product

This is an all-new kit designed by Tamiya’s top designers which recreates the “Easy Eight” variant of the legendary Sherman medium tank. The M4A3E8 was known fondly as the “Easy Eight” by its crews, thanks to the relatively smooth drive afforded by its Horizontal Volute Spring Suspension (HVSS). Another distinguishing feature was its 76mm gun. Some of the 2,500 examples produced were in time to appear in the Battle of the Bulge (Dec. 1944-Jan. 1945), and others even served in the Korean War years after the Allied WWII triumph. Movie buffs will no doubt also recall that the “Easy Eight” was the star of the 2014 hit film “Fury.” THE TAMIYA-DESIGNED M4A3E8 KEY FEATURES Slide moulded turret and upper hull parts give an unbeatable combination of hassle-free assembly and highly realistic detail levels. Cast metal turret and welded hull surface textures are rendered accurately. The rear showcases sharp, detailed moulding on engine grilles and exhausts, as well as the numerous accessories depicted by the kit.
