The M4A1 “Faye” late production kit will be nearly identical, and just include a few more parts, such as the wide M34A1 gun mantlet more commonly seen during the campaign in NW Europe.

Thanks Tojo, just confirms, Tasca/Asuka seems to be the maker when it comes to Sherman tanks!

I believe the tracks and suspension are working on the Rye Field Models version, too. At least, I think they are... it’s an incredibly detailed kit!
