2008 FOV SHERMAN PIC

Post by Yoxford » Thu Dec 20, 2007 1:12 pm

FYI
Up on MIB Global's web site, ( in Australia ) they have a picture of the 2008 Extreme Metal Series 1/16 SHERMAN tank for pre-order. - "Paint Scheme - Normandy 1944".

The sign of a great model is that one’s eye is not drawn to any one feature, yet one can study it for hours and continually find something new.

1:16 Sherman

Hi,
While it is true that Unimax will be coming out with a 1:16 Sherman, I dont think the image shown on the site is of the actual vehicle. Right clicking on the image indicates its model #81007, which was FOV's first issue 1:32 scale Sherman tank. Frankly, I think the model they plan to replicate, its scheme, history and feature list hasnt been officially announced yet, although we are expecting news sometime in January.
