I have to disagree on the Fury tank...it's an Easy 8 b/c it's got the HVSS. If you look at the tank closely you can see it. The other tanks in the platoon varied. There was an M4, an M4A1 (76mm) and so on.
Damn this guy is a nerd when it comes to tanks...I love it! I watched a Team yankee unboxing just out of curiosity and now I've binge watched everything, just to hear him talk about tanks. Great work!
Also, the plates on the hull sides are there to add protection to the dry round stowage, never heard of your "fuel line"... Later versions had a wet stowage for the main gun rounds and eliminated the plates on the side.
please make them up in future videos so we can see what the finish product looks like!!! you just dont get the effect from looking at a flatpack sprue otherwise very gd and thorough review cheers :)
I really like your videos, keep up the outstanding work! *M4A5 was not a Sherman. M4A5 was a Canadian vehicle based on the VVSS Chassis and armed with a 6pdr. 2000 were built.
Tanking is a very muddy business. Every field problem resulted in very dirty tanks. It really sucked when you got back into the driver's hole to sleep and it was coated in mud. But it does beat sleeping in a foxhole.
M4 and M4A1 had the same engine, but M4A1 had a round, cast hull. Other A+numbers were different in engine. I'm really confused that no one has said that yet as this is 2 years old video
I like that you guys actually know what your talking about
I love the detail on the Sherman's history!

M4s and M4A1s are different in terms of hull, the M4A1 has a cast rounded upper hull, these are M4s
Actually there was not that much of a difference in the hull the major difference was the fuel system and engine

I JUST LOVE TANKS! :D
Who doesn't? :D
Really loving all the Bolt Action and FoW stuff getting done recently.
Would it kill you to assemble some of this?
You used to do it and it was really interesting to see the final product.

Nice, Still torn between these and my Tamiya 1/48
Thank you for this cool info!

plus... Cant wait to see the Rubicon M4 because of the ability of making different versions out of 1 kit
I really like your videos, keep up the outstanding work!

nice to see John DOING the unboxing as well as being in the opening picture (was missing for a couple of years but they still used it, right? :p)
i was about to wonder if they made the M4A1 (76) with the longer-barrel 76mm
Chaser McLoude you can get the resin 76 and the jumbo and the easy 8 too
No Stug III overview?
Glasses and a bit of change in commentary?
Im getting shades of daryl here.
Aren't these M4s, and not M4A1s? Aren't M4A1s cast hulls? These appear to be welded hulls.
Yep they can only be Shermans M4 or M4A2 but the A2 family almost not got used by the americans! "Ok it got used by the marines"
Wait 'til the end of the credits. Beasts of Wars' version of Howard the Duck.
