I’d definitely suggest you score some Dragon M4s. And the ones linked above are the ones I’d recommend as well. Both Derby and the Phantom Div vehicles are good representations of the models in use during the campaigns you mentioned. Both are great products. For variety here’s a few more for you to consider. A vehicle in use during the Normandy breakout is another 2nd Armor Div vehicle, Elowee. As for the Bulge, there’s also Cool Studs, Inc (the first Dragon Armor Sherman) or if you want something whitewashed there’s this assault gun belonging to the 6th AD. M4A3E8s like this one also saw their first combat in the Bulge. (Not sure about the glacis applique armor for this period though.) I believe Abrams still used his VVSS "Thunderbolt VI" throughout the campaign...Which Dragon doesn't make but I wished they did...But I'd ABSOLUTELY pick up Thunderbolt VII as well anyway. The "original Abrams Tank", and one of my favorites. |
