New U.S. Sherman stowage kit coming soon!

Post by dgsselkirk »

Greetings Everyone,
By popular demand I am in the process of working on a U.S. Sherman stowage package to compliment my Commonwealth package that has sold extremely well. So this time I thought I would ask for your input on what is should contain. I will be trying to keep it between $30 and $40 dollars and give good value for that. Tentatively it will contain the following:

American Tank Commander 1/2 figure
Your choice of either 105 ammo boxes, 75mm boxes, or 76mm. There will be 2 units in the package
3 American style ruck sacks
3 American style helmets
2 American style jerry cans
1- .30 Cal MG with 6 ammo boxes
6- .50 Cal ammo boxes
1- single long tarp that fits in the fold down rear rack
1- small case with helmet on top
25 sandbags
2 Sherman bogie wheels
1- oil can
1- real wood cross support strut that you see on most tanks
1- tarp covered boxes
1- scrimm camo net roll
2- ration size boxes
1- open case that will contain some odds and sods of American equipment.
This is what I have on the list so far so I am open to other things you mat have in mind. I will also be producing a new Desert/Italian campaign Commonwealth short sleeve Tank
Commander, early Sherman Blanket box and firefly large extra blanket box.
On the stowage kits if you want a better idea of what I am talking about here is the Commonwealth package I am currently selling...

That sounds good Dean, but you forgot an all important essential, 76mm ammo boxes :thumbup:

And have you ever thought about empty shell cases?
