Trumpeter 07299 US M26E2 Pershing Heavy Tank 1:72 Plastic Tracked Model Kit  [TP07299]

Trumpeter 07299 US M26E2 Pershing 1:72 kit overview

This 1:72 scale tracked plastic model represents the US M26E2 Pershing heavy tank and is presented as a compact subject for accurate small-scale modelling and display.

The Pershing family was introduced late in World War II to offer greater firepower and protection than earlier US medium tanks, with the M26 standardized in March 1945 and seeing limited action at the end of the war and afterwards. The design is notable for bridging wartime medium-tank concepts toward heavier postwar designs.

Kit engineering focuses on fidelity and assembly accuracy at 1:72 scale. The moulding separates upper and lower hull parts, and suspension arms are supplied as individual components to improve alignment and realism. Parts are organised across sprues to reflect hull and running gear complexity while keeping the build manageable for experienced modellers. Decals include U.S. service markings for basic finishing choices.

A compact 1:72 Pershing representation emphasising hull geometry and suspension detail; well suited to display cases, dioramas, and period collections.
