Academy and Italeri both have made 1/35 Sherman Caliope kits. The Academy kit is the better of the two, but the Italeri kit is not bad…

With Syrcon 37 coming in October 19th in a couple months, my focus will be armor kits. Time to build a stash of armor kits :giggles:

Good choice Tom - looking forward to seeing those.

Having finally got into it I love building armour - I just wish it didn't take me so long to build them.
