The German Tiger I tank, renowned for its formidable armor and powerful 8.8cm KwK 36 L/56 main gun, made its impactful debut in North Africa at the close of 1942. Developed through a competitive process between Henschel and Porsche, the Henschel prototype, with its superior design, entered mass production by August 1942. Enhancements such as air pre-cleaners and strengthened mantlets were introduced in subsequent months, making the early production models from November 1942 to July 1943 particularly notable.
This Tamiya 1/35 scale model captures the essence of the early production Tiger I, offering enthusiasts a chance to delve into its historical significance and engineering prowess. With over 200 intricately molded parts, this kit provides a comprehensive build experience that highlights both external and select internal details. The inclusion of a tank commander figure and flexible rubber tracks enhances the model's display potential, making it a prized addition to any WWII collection.
