1:48 German Heavy Tank Tiger I Early Production (Eastern Front)

When it appeared in 1942, the Tiger I represented a significant evolution in German armor, with its heavy armor and powerful 88mm gun. Tiger Is produced between November 1942 and June 1943 can be termed early production versions, and featured a tubular cupola and hull rear air cleaners. Mainly deployed in new heavy armored battalions, early production Tiger Is were largely sent to the Eastern Front, where they enjoyed clear initial superiority.

• 1/48 scale plastic model assembly kit. Length: 175mm, width: 77mm.
• The bulky, heavily-armored Tiger I form is artfully rendered in 1/48 scale, with faithful depiction of early production vehicle features.
• This model kit recreates the German Heavy Tank Tiger I Early Production. It’s an updated version, which was originally released as Item 32504 (with die-cast lower hull) in 2004.
• H parts (lower hull) are from Item 32575 (1/48 German Tiger I Late Production), and E parts (turret)/ F parts (upper hull) based upon Item 32504 are modified for plastic parts’ assembly.
• Lower and side hull are depicted by separate parts (diecast, one-piece hull in Item 32504).
• Assembly type tracks have one-piece straight sections.
• Metal chassis weights give the model a realistic heavy feel.
• Includes two new marking options to depict the 503rd Heavy Panzer Battalion (3-color camouflage pattern) or 502nd Heavy Panzer Battalion (overall Dark Yellow).
