$425 for the sherman is a little steep even considering the work he did on it

Flyboy, your Sherman Firefly has far superior craftsmanship and quality than the Sherman in that eBay listing. You should be asking for more for your customs

someone should see how much it cost him for material and add that to the normal price of an ultimate soldier sherman i bet it still would be way less than that

Well...
Back in the day my bud the Hun used to get prices like this and more. He was probably paid the most ever for his work.
But XD was VERY popular back then and people were happy to pay for custom work back then.
If I were able to make my Hind back then I probably would have sold over 60 of them by now.

I saw this post searching for something else.
Times are a changing.
Now Shermans are running for around $200
This post is about 4 years old when you could still get Shermans for $50-$75 !!!
