New Sherman M4A3 hatches

Here is a pic of the test turret (an old DS Sherman turret) with the new hatches installed (very sloppy job! sorry!) The new loaders hatch is made slightly oversize as the original DS hatch is somewhat irregular.  It can be easily sanded to fit the opening.   I will add 2 small springs from some old pens to this later.   The commanders hatch unit is an old Viper one that we corrected (they had the hatches upside down! LOL!) and added the periscope unit to the corrected outside of the hatch.   These will not come on the turret.   You will need to cut off most of the old molded commanders hatch ring and install this new resin one.

 

COMING SOON! NEW!! Sherman block track link sets!!

These will be are our new block style Sherman track links! 160 links and 320 connectors. blocks are preassembled. Thanks to Auggie Romero and Battlegear toys for helping design and get these produced for us! Coming soon, new improved links. Same great, unique outside, all new innards!

Sherman M4A3 test piece

To the left is the test bed piece for our reworked Sherman. We now own the molds to the old Desimone Sherman M4a3 tank and will be doing some corrections to the molds over the next couple months. New kit will include a hardwood 75mm barrel, new resin hatches for turret, new induvidual plastic track links, new drive wheels, and new roadwheels and wheel trucks. Estimated price will be $425 plus shipping TBD.  Shown on the test piece are a number of custom parts available from Eastcoastarmory.com including gun rest, periscope guards.

 

Progress on new resin Sherman drive sprocket!

Here is part of the new upcoming resin drive wheel (star style) for our Sherman hull series.   Will fit our new track links and come with all our new Sherman based vehicles.
