Excellent 1:72 Sherman Firefly
This fairly recent release of the Sherman Firefly from Airfix is a new tooling from 2020, being properly scaled in 1:72. It is a world away from the previous Airfix Sherman tank offerings in 1:76 scale which have all been based on the original moulding from 1961. Inside the box Airfix have provided an easy version where all the wheels & tracks are in one moulding, or one slightly more complex where you assemble the wheels and add the track pieces. The parts are crisp and well moulded and fit together extremely well, and with the 2 paint/decal option boxing you get spare tracks, wheels and boxes to fit on the outside of the tank hull. In the gift set version I believe you get just one set of decals and only the pre moulded wheel / track assembly with no added bits for the outside of the hull. The parts & instructions have now been updated to include the plate cover for where the bow machine gun is placed on standard Shermans, but I suspect a couple of the part numbers are incorrect for the separate wheel and track assembly version … so test for the correct parts and that both track link patterns are correct before glueing. Overall an excellent model and well worth the purchase.

Building a Sherman firefly in 1.72 scale
Its a good kit, it comes with the option of 2 different tank tracks and road wheels and will make into a good version of the tank, it comes with a good decal sheet that builds into 2 different units that would be in battle scene, it will look good with extra detail of how the real tank would of looked like.

Airfix 1/72 Sherman Firefly
Decent model, much improved over earlier kits. Still bit basic, with no commander figure, open commanders hatch, or rear turret storage box. Tracks MUCH better than earlier kits; they have finally done away with the rubber band tracks which were awful. All in all pretty decent value for money.

Great kit
Goes together nicely, clear instructions. Excellent option for the modeller to build the wheel assemblies or for the less experienced modeller or wargamer who just wants to get it on the table to use a pre-constructed assembly instead.

Excellent price for a reasonable kit
Not built this yet but the reviews are generally good and it looks ok on the sprue. Thanks to HC doing an Airfix sale plus a £5 discount voucher split 50/50 with another kit, this only cost £6.50 instead of £12.

Great product.
Great for my 12-year-old son. It was his first kit, and he enjoyed spending time with building.
