Whoa! I had no idea the Sherman was available in Action grade! I need one for a Lend-Lease custom. Might not be too exciting for you, but I'm pumped! :D
Sorry schizuki, these are just old to me. You can usually find them on e-bay for next to nothing as these are not really popular with the collector crowd. FOV has done action grade series of the Sherman in four (I think?) paint schemes:

S1 Neon green (the most hated of all scale Shermans)
S2 Winterized
S3 Camo English version
S4 Camo American version

There may be others I can't think of. Guys, help us out?

Yeah, but every single time I have grown desperate about finding something and felt I just had to give in to the dark side and buy from a scalper, the very next day I find the item on the shelf. My luck, I guess... :(
