You can download a copy of the build instructions from Tamyia that shows all of the stuff or do a Google search for it.

Build-a-rama has great 1;18 scale stuff..just don't mix jerry cans with 1;16 and everything looks good. They have stowed items for WW II and modern alike.

The Pershing didn't have a pioneer rack, so tools such as shovel, axe, pick matock and 60" pry bar were stowed in sponson boxes.

scratchbuild, more satifying and cheaper.

Verlinden makes a variety of items, that's why I said to start with eBay.

I second PattonCommander's vote for Build-a-Rama. If you want to go a bit further, you might check out eBay or other retailers for Verlinden weapons and supplies sets. Ihave a few, and some of the super-rare Kirin ones, and for the most part, they scale well with Tamiyas ('cept the .50 cal which is huge compared to Tamiya!)

If you wanna take a crack at home-made sandbags, I could mail a few of the ones I got from Germany to you as an example of how to DIY... as for fabric for DIY on duffels, tarps, sandbags, look for whats called 'Flour or sugar sacking. I could send ya a sizable hunk of this too, as my sis finally was finished with her curtains, and I've got square ~metres~ of the stuff...

For those who MAY be interested... I'm wondering if there is interest for fill-em-yourself sandbags, duffels, and roll-em-yourself tarps, tents, and related stuff. With this much material, I can almost custom-dye this aftert cutting and hemming it to size. PM me if you would be interested... wanna know if its worth buying one of those Singer pocket-stitcher/hemming machines.
