 Subject:  M26 Pershing (T26E3) Mantlet details, help...List thread.  
  
 Date:  Jan 24, 2003
 From:  T. Koseoglu 
Hello all,

Currently I'm in the process of starting to build a Tamiya 1/16 M26 Pershing (The green beast). Before I start, I went through the process of researching the tank to see what details I could add to the model that are missing.

My question is, do the Mantlet cover strips contain hex bolts, normal bolts or snaps?

It's funny that some of the pictures I've seen show bolts of some type, but others make it appear to be heavy duty snaps I've also seen a ton of models from other moldelers that have placed small dome bolts on the mantlet to prepresent what's suppose to be there (These were all 1/35 though).

If anyone knows the answer to this strange question I can't wait to hear it.

Thanks
