Hi guys.Can any of the UK members tell me where I can get a Mato Sherman from in the UK ? I have tried ebay,Google etc ,I have even asked by brother in Norfolk !! (he's currently got five Heng Long tanks and counting ) but I can't find a seller anywhere.
I'm not desperate yet but I'm getting there. ;D

Thanks Dave,I have already contacted forgebear a week or more ago and he said he was going to list the Sherman in the next day or so.I keep looking at his listing but have yet to see the Sherman listed,I may email him again but don't want to "bug" him to much.
Nice job on your Sherman build by the way,it's turned out great.I keep looking through your thread for reference on detailing etc on the Sherman.
Thanks again.

I have had a reply from forgebear and apparently his supply of Shermans are stuck with customs and as you say he's going on holiday soon,but he s has said he'll let me know when they are back in stock.Can't ask more than that !!

Excellent! Give something for my Tigers to shoot next time you visit!! I'm sure I have an old zippo lighter somewhere to simulate the usual reaction of a Sherman when confronted with a Tiger!! :haha: :haha:

Hmm maybe a couple of M89 wp smoke rounds ( which contain phosphorous and set fire to oil and grease creating a surface fire and result in smoke entering the tank ) nip round the back fire a couple of M61 AP rounds in the confusion,job done :thumbup:
