Another beautiful set of markings from this relatively new decal company from Poland. The 12 marking schemes included in the set represent a good mix of Sherman variants, as well as being spread across several units within the Polish 1st Armoured Division. A couple of them have been seen before in kit markings or other aftermarket decal sets, but I think the quality of these Toro decals is superior to most others. They look superb, with very clear and crisp printing, thin carrier film, good colors and excellent registration, as well as being thoroughly researched.

Large, full-color marking guides for this set can be found at: http://www.toro-model.com.pl/pliki/72d10e.htm
