New Forces of Valor 1/32 Diecast Tanks USA: T-34-85, Sherman Firefly & Jagdtigers

Forces of Valor new arrivals • U.S. collector guide

Four 1/32 armored vehicles, four distinct late-war stories

Compare a Berlin T-34-85, a Normandy Sherman Firefly and two Jagdtigers with different suspension systems, markings and display footprints.

Collectors searching for Forces of Valor 1/32 diecast tanks in the USA now have four new World War II subjects to compare. The group spans Soviet, British and German armor: a T-34-85 associated with the 55th Guards Tank Brigade in Berlin, a Sherman Firefly Vc. tied to British armored formations in Normandy, and two Sd.Kfz. 186 Jagdtigers representing Henschel and Porsche suspension configurations.

Every qualifying product added between October 11 and October 15, 2026 is included below. The live Shopify listings identify each as an active, officially licensed 1/32 model with diecast metal and selected plastic parts, weathering, a landscape display base, rotating turret, opening hatch and engine compartment, plus a sculpted soldier figure and accessories. This guide records the exact SKU, approximate dimensions, U.S.-market price and direct product link so buyers can distinguish versions that may look similar in a search result.

Quick comparison: four new Forces of Valor 1/32 tanks

All measurements are approximate and come from the active product descriptions. Manufacturer packaging can change while the model remains the same.

Shared display features across the release

The four models are closely matched in construction and presentation. Each listing specifies an officially licensed 1/32 replica made from diecast metal with some plastic parts. Every model includes weathering, detailed exterior and engine areas, realistic panel lines and surface details, a landscape display base, opening hatch and engine compartment, and a rotating turret for changing the pose. A realistically sculpted soldier figure and accessories are also included with each product.

These common elements make the group cohesive even though the vehicles come from different armies and campaigns. The differences are in historical identity, hull shape, dimensions, markings and price. The T-34-85 and Sherman Firefly share a narrower 3.25-inch approximate width. Both Jagdtigers are listed at 6.5 inches wide and 10 inches long, making them the largest footprints in the group. Measure the shelf before assuming that all 1/32 armored vehicles occupy the same space.

Soviet T-34-85 and British Sherman Firefly: two Allied armor choices

Berlin 1945 • SKU FOV-801013A

Soviet T-34-85, 55th Guards Tank Brigade

This T-34-85 represents a vehicle associated with the 55th Guards Tank Brigade, 7th Guards Tank Corps, in Berlin during 1945. The store description places the model within the final European campaign and identifies the T-34-85 as the important late-war development of the Soviet T-34, with an 85mm weapon and a larger turret than the earlier version.

For display, the model measures approximately 9.5 inches long, 3.25 inches wide and 3.25 inches high. Its landscape base, rotating turret, opening hatch and engine compartment create multiple presentation options, while the included soldier figure and accessories can add scale and context around the vehicle.

Choose FOV-801013A if your collection centers on Soviet armor, the Eastern Front, Berlin or medium tanks. It is also the lowest-profile buying entry alongside the Sherman Firefly because both share the same verified U.S. price.

Normandy 1944 • SKU FOV-801036A

British Sherman Firefly Vc.

The Sherman Firefly Vc. is presented with markings associated with the 8th Armoured Brigade, 24th Lancers and 13th/18th Hussars in Normandy during 1944. The live description explains that the Firefly adapted the American Sherman by fitting the British 17-pounder anti-tank gun, giving British and Commonwealth formations a more powerful answer to heavy German armor.

Its approximate dimensions are 9.5 inches long, 3.25 inches wide and 3.375 inches high. That makes it the tallest of the four by a small margin, although it shares the T-34-85’s length and width. The long-gun silhouette, rotating turret, opening areas, weathered finish and included display base make it a natural centerpiece for a Normandy-focused shelf.

Choose FOV-801036A if your interests lean toward British armor, Operation Overlord, the Normandy campaign or Sherman variants. It pairs naturally with the T-34-85 as an Allied two-model group while keeping different fronts and national markings clear.

Jagdtiger comparison: Henschel suspension No. 331 vs. Porsche suspension No. 314

The two Jagdtigers offer a focused comparison inside one vehicle family. Both models are 10 inches long and 6.5 inches wide, both represent 1945 vehicles connected to schwere Panzerjäger-Abteilung 653, and both carry the same verified U.S. price. The key differences are suspension type, tactical number, specific unit wording and a slight difference in listed height.

The Henschel-suspension No. 331 is approximately 2.875 inches high and is tied to sPzJgrAbt 653 in Germany. The Porsche-suspension No. 314 is approximately 2.8 inches high and is identified with the 3rd Company of Battalion 653. The product descriptions frame both as late-war German armored vehicles, while the Porsche version represents the less common suspension configuration.

Henschel suspension • No. 331 • SKU FOV-801024A

Sd.Kfz. 186 Jagdtiger, Germany 1945

FOV-801024A represents Jagdtiger No. 331 with the standard Henschel suspension arrangement. The product history identifies the vehicle with schwere Panzerjäger-Abteilung 653 and describes its late-war connection to fighting in Germany during 1945. For collectors, the tactical number and suspension label are the most reliable identifiers when comparing it with other Jagdtiger releases.

The model’s 10-by-6.5-inch footprint is much broader than the T-34-85 or Firefly. Its listed height is approximately 2.875 inches. The weathered finish, panel lines, antennas, access details, opening hatch and engine compartment support close inspection, while the landscape base and soldier figure create a prepared display.

Choose No. 331 if you want the Henschel running-gear version, a German 1945 subject or a specific sPzJgrAbt 653 vehicle. Use the full SKU in searches to avoid confusing it with the Porsche-suspension No. 314.

Porsche suspension • No. 314 • SKU FOV-801065A

Sd.Kfz. 186 Jagdtiger, 3rd Company / Battalion 653

FOV-801065A represents Jagdtiger No. 314 with Porsche suspension. The live description identifies it with the 3rd Company of schwere Panzerjäger-Abteilung 653 in 1945 and notes that only a limited number of Porsche-suspension Jagdtigers were completed. This makes the suspension configuration central to the product’s collecting identity.

Approximate dimensions are 10 inches long, 6.5 inches wide and 2.8 inches high. Like the Henschel model, it includes weathering, a landscape base, rotating turret, opening hatch and engine compartment, detailed surface features, and a soldier figure with accessories.

Choose No. 314 if the Porsche suspension, tactical number or 3rd Company association is your priority. Display it beside No. 331 to make the engineering difference the subject of the shelf rather than treating both as interchangeable Jagdtigers.

How the four models work as one historical display

A complete four-model shelf can be organized as a simple 1944–1945 sequence. Begin with the Sherman Firefly in Normandy during 1944, then move into the 1945 subjects: the T-34-85 in Berlin and the two Jagdtigers connected to Battalion 653. This arrangement uses the dates and settings already stated in the product titles and descriptions, so the display communicates progression without needing additional interpretation.

Another approach is to divide the shelf into Allied and German sections. Place the T-34-85 and Firefly together on one side; their similar listed footprints create a balanced pair. Place the Henschel and Porsche Jagdtigers together on the other; their identical 10-inch length and 6.5-inch width make them natural companions. A small center gap can separate the two themes while protecting barrels, antennas and accessories from contact.

If engineering is the main interest, start with the Jagdtigers and make the suspension labels visible on the shelf cards. Record “Henschel, No. 331” and “Porsche, No. 314” beside the SKUs. If campaigns are the focus, highlight Normandy, Berlin and Germany 1945 instead. Either structure makes the collection easier to understand and helps future additions fit an established rule rather than becoming an unplanned row of similarly scaled vehicles.

Which Forces of Valor 1/32 tank should you buy?

Because the four models cover different armies and campaigns, the best first choice is the one that matches your collection’s historical focus. Price creates two simple pairs, but theme and dimensions are more useful decision tools.

U.S. buyers should confirm the current price and availability on each live product page before ordering, then rely on checkout for the authoritative total. This article does not promise inventory, delivery time or shipping terms.

Display and care guidance for 1/32 military models

Scale alone does not determine shelf space. The Jagdtigers are approximately twice the listed width of the T-34-85 and Sherman Firefly, so plan the cabinet around the largest footprint. Leave additional clearance if you intend to rotate turrets, open hatches or show engine compartments. A model that technically fits can still feel crowded when functional features cannot move safely.

• Keep each landscape base level. A stable surface protects the model, figure and loose accessories from accidental movement.
• Handle the hull, not antennas or barrels. Support solid diecast areas with clean, dry hands and avoid lifting by small details.
• Move turrets and hatches gently. Rotate or open only as far as the mechanism allows; never force resistance.
• Organize by theatre or vehicle family. The Allied pair works by campaign contrast, while the two Jagdtigers make a focused technical comparison.
• Limit prolonged direct sunlight and moisture. A stable indoor environment helps protect paint, weathering, accessories and packaging.
• Retain the SKU and original packaging. Exact numbers are essential when similar vehicles have different markings or suspension details.

A concise display label improves searchability and visitor understanding. Include vehicle name, year, unit or campaign, scale and SKU. For the Jagdtigers, add the suspension type and tactical number. These verified details make the two versions easy to distinguish without inventing information beyond the store listings.
