Summary of Hobby Boss 82920 1/72 M4 High Speed Tractor

The M4 High Speed Tractor was developed by Allis-Chalmers from 1943 to 1945 to tow 90mm anti-aircraft and 3-inch guns. This Hobby Boss 1/72 kit recreates the vehicle in a scale suited to display cabinets and groupings with other military models.

Service Record and Modelling Interest

Designed to replace obsolete crawler tractors, the M4 moved crews and ammunition in mechanised formations and saw production of over 5,500 units. As a model subject it highlights logistic support roles often overlooked in collections.

Parts, Size and Assembly Considerations

The kit comprises more than 20 parts across two sprues with separate upper and lower hull pieces. The completed model measures 73.6mm in length and 40mm in width, offering a tidy footprint alongside other 1/72 vehicles.

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Plastic
  • Total Parts: 20+

Intermediate beginners to experienced modellers will find the kit approachable; it offers clear assembly without excessive tiny subassemblies, making it a good step up from simpler kits.
Spare plastic parts are not typically supplied, so careful handling during removal from sprues is advised. Aftermarket services may offer repairs or resin replacement pieces if needed.
Yes. Its 73.6mm by 40mm footprint fits common 1/72 base sizes and allows room for figures, equipment and scenic elements to build contextual displays.
Prepare plastic cement, a fine cutter, sandpaper or files, basic paints and brushes. A magnifier and steady work surface help with precise alignment of hull joins.
