I too was hoping for upgrades when I bought mine. It seems you found more than me. Where can you get metal suspension parts?
Anyway, there are very few upgrades that I have found, and I believe you listed them all.

That's unfortunate that there are so few upgrades available as the Sherman is by far my favorite tank. I wanted to begin with one but I didn't want to shell out a fortune for a Tamiya only to have to upgrade and drop in my own electrics anyway. Hopefully someone will see the value in building upgrades for the Mato Sherman so I can start a "Bullet Proof" version for myself.

Hi I got my two shermans from matomartcom ,thay claim that thay listened to all request from modelars,and gave us what we wanted. but I'm still wating for metal tracks among other upgrades. maybe if we all emailed them thay would listen to us. It's just a thought.
