By popular demand and requests, we are bringing you a new release soon... M4A3(75)W / M4A3(105) Sherman.
This should fill in the missing link in our M4 Sherman range without using our "Mix & Match" arrangement.
Enjoy!
This is nice because now you can build a late 75mm M4A3 from the ETO without buying two kits. Also this kit will build the late war M4A3E8 105mm that the marines used in the pacific very late in WW2.
Unfortunately part D22 (the sharp nose FDA) is missing here. That final drive cover is only offered on the 76mm turret sprue.
ALL large hatch shermans received the final FDA casting, the M4 hybrid, the large hatch M4, and these late M4A3s that still featured the 75mm or the 105mm guns. Even some mid production hull shermans were getting that final FDA before they switched to large hatch hulls.
Part D22 should have been included as an option on most of the sherman kits.
A resin version of part D22 is sorely needed to accurately build many of your wonderful sherman kits. If I knew how to cast resin I would invest in making my own just to complete these tanks. Please consider making a resin version of part D22 so that folks like me that want the correct part on their late war shermans can purchase it to complete those kits, thanks rubicon!
