Very nice indeed. I always found the WW vehicles a little tedious to put together. How are these Shermans?

Olaf,

I bought them a long time ago but never paint them. I need a Sherman platoon for scenario so I . Nevertheless, when I will really begin to work on a US Force, I will switch to 1/56 tank ( BAM or AGNM ) for the WW Sherman are a bit small. I don't have this issue with the T34s or Panthers.

About the quality, I would say that it's not the quality you have now from BAM, AGNM, BG or Chieftain. Two are nice, two are average and one is quite badly cast. However the assembly is rather easy.

I can't let this slip into page 2 with only one comment. I am a big fan of your web page and these make a worthy addition to the rest of your forces. The only thing I am not really keen on are the bases, but I guess some companies don't build them sturdy enough.

Thanks!  ;)

I'm use to base my 1/60 vehicles. I must confess that with 1/56 models it's not really necessary.
