Description: This is a 1/35 Scale German King Tiger Tank (Ardennes Front) Plastic Model Kit from Tamiya. Development of the massive King Tiger began in 1943 to counter the in- creasing threat of Russian tanks. A more powerful cannon was added and the front armor was 150mm thick with 80mm thick side armor. The turret was revised mid-way through production, from a stepped gun mantle to a smooth one. Due to the havoc wreaked by the King Tiger I during the final German offensive on the Ardennes front in December of 1944, the Allied forces that moved in on Berlin would fear the King Tiger up until the very last day of the war. FEATURES: Detailed plastic parts molded in tan and attached to sprue trees. Ready to assemble precision model kit. Complete exterior detailing. Detailed flexible tracks. Includes parts for stepped or smooth gun mantles. Realistically detailed Henschel design turret. Turret's rear escape hatch can be opened and closed after assembly; other hatches can be assembled in the open or closed position. Includes DKW NZ350 German motorcycle recreated as is appeared during the latter stages of WWII, with smaller headlight and thinned-out fender. Three figures included: tank commander and orderly wearing leather jackets, and tank crewman. Waterslide decals. Includes detailed and informative pictorial instructions.
