John,

Must build Shermans? That's easy.

1. Direct vision M4A1 as used by the Brits in North Africa. First Sherman to see action.

2. Mid-production welded hood M4A2 used by the Marines at Tarawa. Bloody Tarawa was the first Shermans used in the Pacific.

3. M4A3E8. The Ultimate Sherman with all the goodies developed at the end of WW II. Abrams would be a nice choice because of the commander.

4. M4A3E2 Jumbo. The only Sherman that could take some knocks from the German big cats.

5. Firefly (any version). The only Sherman to be able to duke it out with German big cats.

That's my top 5. Of course I could do the whole list if I would live long enough. Funny as of this date none of those Shermans are in kit form with the same attention to detail and accuracy as say the multiple edidtions of Tiger Is and Tiger IIs.
