This is Revell's 1st [1955] release of the M-4 Sherman tank in 1/40 scale...This kit has been inventoried and is almost complete--in addition, a few parts are from the 1960 [more tan]...but from the original 1955 release. 

This kit is missing one of the GIs running with his bayonet bearing rifle as well as the kneeling GI.  So..I have added:

• Flamethrower
• Prone Rifleman
• Thompson submachine gunner

Original decals and instructions are shown---but you will also receive reproductions with an OD background around the all white decals.  The background color shown matches Testors Model Master Acrylic OD.  However, if you have another pain t you plan on using I can CHANGE  the background to THAT color ---then the edges of the decals will [hopefully!] blend in better. The decals are printed on white backed paper and the closer you trim the easier it will be hide differences in the shade of the it and the background shade of the decal.  

Each face of the box cover is shown.  you will note that there is straight line that runs from the top panel across the box face and onto the bottom panel.  This seems like a manufacturing defect of some sort.  

This line is NOT as obvious in "real life" as it is in the photos--presumably because of the flash.
