Why this kit matters

The King Tiger, also known as the Tiger II, was a German heavy tank of World War II. It is considered one of the most powerful tanks of the war, combining heavy armour with a high-velocity 88mm gun. The King Tiger was produced with two different turret designs: an early production "Porsche" turret and a later, more common "Henschel" turret. The King Tiger represents a pinnacle of German tank design and its impact on armored warfare.

This model kit allows you to recreate a highly detailed replica of this iconic tank, with the option to build either the Porsche or Henschel turret version. Building this kit provides an engaging and challenging experience, perfect for those deeply interested in military history and modelling. The finished model makes an impressive display piece, showcasing the design and capabilities of the German KingTiger.
