Compact 1/48 Hobby Boss 84801 M4A1(76)W Tank

This Hobby Boss 1/48 scale representation of the U.S M4A1(76)W brings an important Sherman variant into a manageable modelling scale. The kit highlights the distinctive cast hull form and the 76mm gun that defined late-war Shermans used in operations after D-Day.

Authentic Components and Assembly

Features such as the T23 turret outline and the wet storage protection are modelled to give a convincing appearance when assembled. Builders can expect to work with small parts and focus on fit to achieve the best results.

Display and Collecting Appeal

As a display model, this 1/48 Sherman fits neatly with other small-scale armour and provides a convincing study of wartime design changes, making it a good choice for compact collections.

Standard plastic cement works well for main joints, while cyanoacrylate can be useful for small or delicate parts.
