Compact WWII Display Kit - Tamiya 32532 - 1/48 British Sherman IC Firefly Military Model Kit  [32532]

Overview of the Tamiya 1/48 Sherman IC Firefly Kit

The Sherman IC Firefly was a key British adaptation in WWII, converting M4 Shermans with the potent 17-pounder gun to tackle heavier German armour. This conversion gave Allied units a fighting chance against late-war tanks at combat ranges beyond 1,000 metres.

Scale Modelling of the Firefly

The Tamiya 1/48 scale kit reproduces the Fireflys proportions and surface detail with precision. Intended for hobbyists who value accurate assembly, the parts layout and engineering support a focused build that results in a faithful miniature of the wartime vehicle.

Construction Notes and Display Potential

Parts include hull-mounted fittings and separate tool components that let builders capture the Fireflys character. The die-cast chassis gives the finished model a solid feel, improving shelf presence. Suitable for model display or inclusion in dioramas, this kit rewards careful painting and weathering.
