Warriors is one of the product lines that come from the
creative minds of VLS. They've produced a wide range of resin
military figures that feature great detail and simple construction.
Here is another release of interest. Click on the photo to see
an enlarged view.
If you jumped on the M4A2 conversions released by VLS in their
Trakz line a few months ago, here is a Marine crew for your tank.
The original Academy kit comes with Soviet markings, but the USMC
also operated the diesel-powered Shermans as well. Using the replacement
hull and turret sets from Trakz, you can backdate the Academy
kit to represent a typical M4A2 used in the Pacific. This crew
set will give you a tank commmander, driver and co-driver/bow
gunner.
You can purchase this and any of the Warriors Scale Model line
from your local hobby retailer or directly from VLS'
website at www.modelmecca.com. They have some of the fastest
mail order delivery in this industry - give them a try!
My sincere thanks to VLS for
this review sample!
