Tamiya 35250 1/35 M4A3 Sherman 75mm - Authentic WWII Tank Model

The Tamiya 35250 kit recreates the M4A3 Sherman as seen in late 1944, capturing the vehicle that helped Allied units repel German attacks in actions like the Battle of the Bulge. The parts layout and fittings are aimed at hobbyists wanting a historically grounded build.

Authentic Layout and Mechanical Notes

This version shows the M4A3 with its 75mm gun and the V8 450hp Ford engine that gave the tank reliable road performance. The model highlights the angled front hull with 63.5mm frontal armor and the improved wet ammo stowage that reduced fire hazards.

Model Features and Display Value

The 1/35 scale kit models the cast turret silhouette and welded hull. Builders get choices for hatch positions, two types of road wheels and sprockets, plus rubber padded tracks. Three crew figures and a tank commander are included to liven up displays.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Overall Length: 172mm
  • Overall Width: 76mm
  • Material: Plastic
  • Features: Multiple hatch positions, rubber padded tracks, and detailed crew figures
  • Decals: Three types included

Diorama Possibilities

Pair this kit with period US vehicles such as the M8 Greyhound or 2.5-ton 6X6 cargo truck to compose dynamic late war scenes that show unit movements and battlefield interaction.

Build time varies by skill and finish level. Expect several evenings for assembly and basic paint, longer if you add weathering and extra detailing.
Figures come as separate parts for heads, arms and bodies, allowing custom poses and painting to match your diorama scene.
The kit uses rubber padded tracks designed for static display. Converting to a running model requires careful modification and checking of dimensions against your motor mount.
