Build the Fearsome Tiger I Tank with This Tamiya Late Production Model, a Detailed 1/48 Scale Kit with a Die-Cast Chassis
Key Features
Overview
The German Tiger I heavy tank was one of the most formidable and feared weapons of the Second World War, said to be comparable to five Sherman tanks. Protected by up to 100mm of heavy armour and armed with a powerful 88mm gun, it could destroy Allied tanks from extreme range. The late production version, built from 1944, featured various improvements such as steel road wheels and a revised commander's cupola with a periscope.
This 1/48 scale Tamiya kit realistically models the solid, imposing appearance of the late production Tiger I. Special weights are included to be installed inside the hull, creating a satisfying sense of weight in the finished model. The tracks are an articulated, assembly type with integrated straight sections that make achieving a realistic sag effect easy. A commander half-figure and decals for two famous heavy tank battalions are included to complete the model.
