M4A3E2 "Jumbo" Sherman - Cobra King

描述
During the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944, the 101st Airborne Division famously defended Bastogne, a key crossroads town, against a German siege. Surrounded and outnumbered, General Anthony McAuliffe of the 101st issued the legendary "Nuts!" reply to a German demand for surrender. The town’s defense was critical in preventing the Germans from advancing further into Belgium and securing vital supply routes. The M4 Sherman tanks, which were crucial to the defense, had limited mobility in the harsh winter conditions. The battle reached its turning point on December 26, 1944, when the 4th Armored Division’s "Cobra King" tank, after a fierce advance, broke through the German lines, entering Bastogne and relieving the 101st, marking a pivotal moment in the Allied victory in the Ardennes.


This is a 1:1 scale replica of that tank that first entered Bastogne with the words "First in Bastogne" chalked on the side. Everything in it is labeled well and easy to use, just know that most hatches use the handle block to open and close since big red buttons are ugly.
