1/72 M26A1 Pershing Battle of the Chosin Reservoir 1950

Description

Description

This is a die-cast metal and plastic military vehicle model.

This is a very nicely detailed, fully assembled and fully finished die-cast metal model of a Korean War M26 Pershing tank. Markings are for a US Marines M26A1 Pershing as was used at the Battle of the Chosin Reservoir in December 1950. Tracks represent the early-style T81 single-pin metal type, most often seen on WWII Pershings but occasionally also appearing on post-WWII vehicles. Interestingly, the spare track links on the turret represent the later double-pin type…not an impossible combination, as tank crews would routinely slap just about anything onto their vehicles! The model comes mounted on a black custom plastic base, with a clear plastic case to help keep it free of dust and fingerprints.
