K&C Pershing Tank (1 Viewer)

Has King and Country ever released a Pershing Tank? If not, I'd love for them to make a Strictly Limited version. I always thought that was the coolest looking Allied tank of the war.

K&C has never produced a version of this tank (clearly the finest American produced tank which saw service in the war). I would also love to see K&C produce this tank.

I agree that the M26 offered a lot over the M4-series, but the darned thing came into use so late in the war that it's almost a historical sideshow. There were 20 delivered in the first test batch (2/45), then additional numbers came later, so there were 300 in-theater with 200 of them in the hands of the troops by VE day. Still not bad for a tank that only existed as initial drawings at the time of DDay!

It's not K&C, but Forces of Valor makes a decent M26 in 1/32nd scale. It could be used as a background model for a K&C scene, or as a "stand in" waiting for a K&C equivalent.
