## Description

From the manufacturer Airfix Starter Sets Perfect as a gift or to build yourself, our starter sets include glue, brushes and paints with one finish option. From the beginner modeller to the advanced, Airfix has something for you all. Airfix Starter Set Sherman Firefly As Allied forces began to move off the D-Day beaches and into the Normandy countryside, they knew they would be facing strong opposition from German Panzer units, including the feared Heavy Tank Battalions. Fortunately, they now had a tank which was capable of taking on the Tigers and Panthers, in the form of the Sherman Firefly, a British designed marriage of the M4 Sherman and their famous 17-pounder anti-tank gun. Shermans became arguably the most effective Allied tanks of the Second World War. What's Included? Pre-coloured plastic kit Glue Paints Brush Easy to follow instructions One finish option Everything you need to complete the kit! Glue It! Paint It! Decal It! Display It!
