Product details & history

Released in 2014, the film "FURY" details the exploits of a Sherman 'Easy Eight' tank crew during the final months of WW2.
Although actor, Brad Pitt, was the nominal star of the movie for many WW2 enthusiasts the real 'star' of the film was a vintage M4A3 'Easy Eight' Sherman.
The tank itself was actually built in March 1945 at the Fisher Tank Arsenal in Grand Blanc, Michigan. Because it was completed near the end of European combat it never actually saw action during the war.
Post-War it is believed to be one of only five 'Easy Eight' Shermans sent to the British Army who at one point passed it on to the Canadian Forces. Eventually it ended up back at the Royal Military College of Science before being donated to The Tank Museum at Bovingdon UK in 1985 where it was maintained in full running order and used for live public demonstrations for many years.
In 2013, film director David Ayer was looking for a particular Sherman to 'star' in his new WW2 movie and sought the help of The Tank Museum.
Although a number of other Shermans were also used in the film it was this unique M4 that stole the show and also inspired our King & Country 'FURY' which was originally released in 2016 and retired in 2021.
Well, here it is, again back by popular demand and looking better than ever in all its glory. So, if you are one those many collectors who have been furiously searching for a 'FURY', search no more...

Hand-painted mixed-media collectible. Figures are primarily cast metal, while vehicles, scenic pieces, and accessories may combine polystone, resin, metal, and plastic components. The exact material mix varies by model.

Collector Care

Display indoors away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, and moisture. Handle the piece by its base—not by weapons or small accessories—and remove dust gently with a soft, dry brush. Do not use water or household cleaners.

Scale & Dimensions

Designed to complement King & Country's approximately 1:30 scale range. Figure height, vehicle footprint, and accessory dimensions vary by set; check the product description for model-specific details.

History & inspiration

The real tank behind a fictional crew

Fury takes its inspiration from David Ayer's 2014 film, whose story follows a fictional American tank crew near the end of the war in Europe. The miniature belongs to that cinematic world; the crew's experiences should not be confused with a documented unit history.

There is a nice twist behind the screen tank. The Tank Museum identifies its film vehicle as an M4A2E8, although the tank in the story represents the closely related American M4A3E8. A surviving historic vehicle was therefore playing a part, just as the actors were. That distinction is part of Fury's appeal to armor enthusiasts.
