Trumpeter 07287 US T26E4 Pershing Heavy Tank - Kit Review

The late-war T26E4 Pershing brought a step change in US armour during World War II. This Trumpeter 1:72 kit renders the Pershing in miniature while preserving the vehicle's notable contours and mechanical details.

Pershing Significance and Model Appeal

Conceived to face heavily armoured opponents, the Pershing combined a longer gun and reinforced hull. The kit highlights those signature traits, including the elongated gun barrel and compact turret shape, appealing to modellers assembling WWII collections.

Construction Details and Presentation Tips

Containing 115 pieces, the kit balances fine detail with straightforward assembly steps. When completed and painted, the model shows accurate scales and makes a strong addition to any 1:72 armoured lineup or display case.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1:72
  • Length: 139.02mm
  • Width: 49.3mm
  • Height: 42.55mm
  • Total Plastic Parts: 115
  • Sprues: 3 plus lower hull, upper hull, tracks
  • Decal Marking: U.S. Service
The kit suits modellers with intermediate skills. Novices can complete it with patience, while those used to small-scale parts will find the fit straightforward.
Decals are provided for standard U.S. service markings. Careful application and a gloss coat before decal placement will improve final appearance.
The kit is primarily for closed-hatch display. Modifying hatches to open requires careful cutting and possibly filler work to maintain detail at 1:72 scale.
