The box-art of the 'Tiger Tank'

Hachette Partworks Ltd. is publishing "Tiger Tank", a UK magazine that includes parts to build a 1/16 scale model of the Tiger. The magazine itself assembles into a reference work about the Tiger and tank history. The material is also published in other countries and languages.

The kit is molded in plastic. An interior is included.

My ongoing review and comments;


Pistol port Trestle on turret ring Cooling fans
Recoil cylinders Colours for the interior Steering wheel
Recoil guard Turret storage boxes MP40 stowed in turret
Electrical connector cable Storage on turret floor Cradle for the gun
