The kit proposed by Tamiya company includes a plastic model kit of American heavy tank in 1:35 scale.
Tamiya kits allow you to build the model of the American heavy tank from World War II and the Korean War - T26E4 Super Pershing. In addition to the tank, the kit contains 2 crew members (commander and charge) and 3 infantrymen, which can be used to create dioramas.
In the box is a hull element, 8 frames with parts of the tank, 2 frames with elements of infantry figures, rubber tracks, metal components and screws for mounting the chassis and decals.
Plastic parts should be cut out of frames, fit together and glued according to the assembly instruction. You should paint the whole model using modeling paints according to the proposed paint scheme in the instruction. It is important to remember that some plastic parts require painting before gluing.
