For sale is a brand new, unopened, very rare, Hobby Master 1:72 Ground Power Series HG3201 M26 Pershing Diecast Model USMC 1st Tank Btn, Inchon, Korea, September 1950
Marine Pershings were delivered in normal Army colors and share the standard olive drab finish. Delivered in normal Army colors of standard olive drab this M26 carries Marine Tactical markings in yellow to indicate the company, platoon and individual vehicle. The TK 2 marking is the temporary divisional insignia with embarkation number painted on it preceded by TK, for 1st Tank Battalion. The USMC painted over the Army registration number with the last digits – 118039 showing. White markings chalked on the front skirt probably are shipping markings. In Korea Marine tanks did not regularly carry the US Army's white star insignia but they did at Inchon. The nine 1st Tank Battalion M26s landed at Green Beach as part of the first wave. The following day 6 columns of T-34s were sent to repel the attack but half were destroyed by aircraft and half by M26's.
