Tamiya 1/48 German Heavy Tank Tiger I Early Production Scaled Plastic Model Kit
Tamiya 1/48 German Heavy Tank Tiger I Early Production Scaled Plastic Model Kit
1/48 Scale German Tiger I (Early Production)
A legendary German heavy tank of WWII
Features hull weights for a realistic feel
Includes two marking options for the Eastern Front
An excellent project for intermediate modellers
When it appeared on the Eastern Front in 1942, the Tiger I represented a significant evolution in German armour. Its combination of a powerful 88mm gun and thick frontal armour made it a formidable opponent for any Allied tank. The early production version, with its distinctive tubular commander's cupola and rear-mounted air cleaners, established the Tiger's fearsome reputation.
This 1/48 scale kit from Tamiya is a detailed replica of an early production Tiger I. The model artfully renders the Tiger's bulky, heavily-armoured form and includes metal weights to be installed in the lower hull, giving the finished model a realistically heavy feel. The kit features user-friendly assembly-type tracks with one-piece straight sections and includes two different marking options for tanks that fought on the Eastern Front.
