This drives me crazy right now. Look at 6:53. The right tracks of the sherman on the right have a big seperation to the hull. A way to big one. My Kit also has that and kits from all other reviews of this kit have it aswell but it makes no sense since both sides are identical. I don't understand it and I have to say I fell like the tracks and the front lower hull fragile. Every time I roll this thing on its tracks the front lower armor plate sperates itself from the front hull is that the same for your models? Really curious because ei have been trying to find a solution for a long time.
just started building mine and noticed the same gap on the right tracks, no idea what causes this but I think they're all like this have you tried emailing brickmania? maybe they have an answer
@@Idublovestep no I haven't mailed them. But I did find a solution. You need 2 more of the frontal track-gears Wich you can easily buy on Bricklink (the ones with the sticker on them.) you put the long pin holding that gear in backwards, then put the gears (4 in total (each side 2)) with their back facing each other on the pin, track on and they look really good. I hope I could explain this good, but I also might make a Instagram story about it, and then I can send the link of the Instagram story in there replies here so you can see it as well (I'm not saying this for self-promoting purposes) tell me if you didnt understand something!
I think it’s also the only tank to see service in almost every front during the war serving in the British, Canadian, French, American, as well as Russian armies....it was also captured by the Germans and used by them at times
In fact it is the only to see service in all fronts of WWII, the only one that is close is the Matilda II which the only place it wasn’t at was the Burma campaign, but this was something I learned from David Fletcher lol, the tank guru
I have seen it lol, looks pretty nice, especially the folding wings, but yeah I enjoy the Imperial Japanese aircraft because of how unique they are in their own way lol

@@F0KK3RM4N Cool, I got most of my knowledge from the Chieftain's Hatch here on RUclips
@@Imperialofficer07 oh if you’re not on The Tank Museum RUclips channel you’re missing out, David Fletcher is just awesome in the videos he’s in
@@F0KK3RM4N oh and five tanks is a platoon I think....so you basically have a full platoon with the easy 8.
@@Imperialofficer07 lol well guess I’m one off because I got the 2 M4A3s, the Easy Eight and a firefly
nice kit
Such a famous tank and a pretty good medium tank
Great tank
Have you seen the aichi D3A by Dan? You seem to be a fan of Japanese planes so wanted to get your opinions on it
I have seen it lol, looks pretty nice, especially the folding wings, but yeah I enjoy the Imperial Japanese aircraft because of how unique they are in their own way lol
The most recognizable & famous WW2 tank is most likely the T-34.
