Tamiya has always come in for stick regarding their 1/35th scale figures, but in recent times their figures have come on leaps and bounds in quality and detail.

Thousands of Shermans were used by the Societ during WW2, just not the E8 model.

Yeah, the black star made less of a target for German gunners who had excellent optics on their weapons.
