late than never. This is a pretty old set, but I've only
now gotten around to getting ahold of one myself. It's
designed for use with the Revell (Matchbox/Monogram) M4A1
Sherman, which is not a very good model, thus I've never
had an inclination to get this set. However, I saw it at
a good price, and there are plenty of useful bits in this
set that can be used for any Sherman kit I have. Plus, I
wanted to fill a hole in my kit list... Typical comments I always give:
the tools are mostly useless, being much too flat. The
track return skids are a necessity. All of the brush
guards, tool mounting brackets, periscope details and
storage racks are highly useful. I'm not sure about the
hatches; they may be too thin, but I'll have to assemble
them before making a final judgement. The fenders may not
be applicable to any kit other than the Revell kit,
depending on their length. The Revell kit is too small
for 1/72nd, so these fenders likely are as well. Overall
a decent set if you can find it at a decent price.
