Most Helpful Reviews Well-molded, detailed kit with lots of accessories

This kit has options for versions that include late WWII or Korean War. I was very pleased with the amount of accessory content. There are rations crates, ammunition boxes, and equipment packs. Decals are detailed down to the level of the labeling of the .50 cal. ammunition boxes. Many models have crew members that are from the same mold as other kits, so they get pretty boring. The crew figures for the M-26 Pershing model are refreshingly unique. I liked how the hatches are capable of swinging closed or open.
One of the most pleasing features is that the chassis and wheel assembly is mobile. Each wheel moves independently and the suspension is operable so that it hugs the uneven terrain of a diorama base. There are two bolts included in the kit with which to attach the vehicle to a diorama placque. Tightening these bolts will ensure that the independent suspension will mold correctly to the uneven terrain provided by a plaster base.
The assembly instructions are not complicated so they are easy to follow, making the build a pleasurable experience. I would absolutely buy this one again.
