This set includes 6 superbly detailed 12mm/1:144 scale tanks and a decal sheet (Allied stars and British divisional marking). The Firefly mounted the most powerful gun, the 17 pounder, of any Allied tank. It could take on most German tanks at normal battle ranges but lacked a high explosive round so was not effective against soft targets and infantry.

A very nice addition to your range of vehicles. A pleasure to build.
As your range expands I feel that you could well extend your range of decals to cover RA vehicles currently in the range and the convertible tank Destroyer. Then add the mechanised infantry to cover the halftrack and finally add the Armoured rece regiment that in the case of the 7th gave a fourth tank regement to the list 8th Kings Royal Irish Hussars.
Beautiful 1/144 Fireflies. If I recall correctly, most Sherman troops had one Firefly and four Sherman V. M4a4s can easily be converted from these models using turrets from M4a3 (and adding the bow MG): pity you can't do the reverse as Sherman IV(M4a3) weren't used for Fireflies.
Like others vehicles, OUTSTANDING MODEL!
