Found this while looking for a Trumpeter 1:16 T-34...it's billed as a 1:32 scale M4A3 Sherman. The gun looks all wrong, but the hull and running gear look reasonably accurate, but I'm no expert on Sherman variants. At any rate, if they ever decided to produce an "Easy Eight" (M4A3E8) Sherman, it would be well worth the $30 bucks they are asking, to do a repaint and/or customization project.

This is a "Heng Long" made 1/30 (not 1/32) M4A3. We discussed about it some time ago. It's gun is really wrong (the muzzle break!), the machine gun on the turret is similar to the MG-34 (!). The tracks are very fragile. Too fragile. But you are right, the details of the hull and the very realistic working gear are really impressing. You can buy it in Poland for the similar price. My son has got one.

Wow, this thing makes the New Ray Sherman look pretty damn good.
