Hey guys, im now in Texas for a week and just got a email about the awesome looking new Sherman 76mm available for $150.00 at the end of this month. It looks awesome and has the early bogey suspension instead of the HVSS Easy 8 like most have. This will be my next tank. Check out the tank at Mato toys.

Hi guys, for all who are interested the new Shermans are making there way into the hands of the die hard armor guys. mine will be here soon. Be aware that there are some scale issues that some people are quite unhappy with but I'm sure most of the issues can be overlooked or corrected. I wont know what modifications i'll be making until I have it in hand and do some more research on the M4A1 (W)76 which is what this model represents. Happy tanking.

I'm told that the suspension sucks because of the bogey wheel setup and not the HVSS, which is honestly why I wanted it in the first place, but I heard it doesn't translate well into RC Tanking very well.
