Carson ITA6529 1/35 M4A3E8 Sherman Fury Tank Model kit, United States Armies, Mittel

Only if you must
It would be a nice tank, but...it's more like an old model refurbished and added some extra parts. The amount of sanding what's required on every single piece is ridiculous. Instruction sheet is pretty useless, showing wrong parts in the wrong position.My advice - buy two. Start building one and once you've finished you'll know how to deal with the 2nd one.

Not a bad kit
I wanted to build a Fury diorama and was originally going to adapt another kit then saw this. As it would save me sourcing or making the extra bits n pieces I took a punt on the kit. I've got so far through the build and I can say that it's a pretty good kit but does have issues.Having recently built Tamiya, Dragon and Takom kits this does seem a slight step back in terms of quality. The plastic seems a lot softer therefore the detail is a bit less and there is quite a bit of flash to clean up on some of the parts. Seam lines are quite prominent in places too. But with a bit of clean up the overall fit so far has been fine.It's shaping up to be a nice model overall. I would recommend this kit to fans of Fury who have a bit of modelling experience

“It’s the tank from the movie”
Easy to put together. A little bit of paint and weathering and you can end up with a nice rendition of the Fury tank. Threw the supplied “logs” in the bin and used real twigs to enhance the look of the tank.For the price it’s a really nice kit.

Not bad quality at all
I have built several kits before, most by Tamiya. Whilst this is perhaps not quite up to the standard of Tamiya's more recent kits, it is on par with their older ones. There are a couple of mistakes in the instructions (parts mislabelled) but nothing too problematic. The kit comes with a vast selection of stowage which is nice. It is not exactly the same as the film version it is based on but with a few scratch parts it can be made more realistic. A good fun kit to build.

Good with some modifications...
Not a bad model. Not an exact movie replica, but relatively easy to modify and improve with a bit of imagination and a smudge of milliput.P. S. Don't follow the painting guide, watch the movie and look at some images from the film!

great kit, just like the tank in the film
Everything fits and goes together well, no major panel gaps. Some moulding flash on the odd part but nothing that can't be trimmed off. Lots of fine details and you will definitely need tweezers or very very small hands. Plenty of stowage supplied, even a few spares you can put on other models if you wish.Comes with two sets of rubber tracks depending on the design you're after.
