Description

A unique model of a very recognizable and still running tank, PzKpfw VI Tiger with number 131. The famous Tiger was captured by the British in Africa during World War II and is currently the biggest attraction of The Tank Museum!

The block Tiger 131 has been reproduced with attention to detail in the very popular 1:35 scale! It is worth emphasizing that this is the first time COBI has released the legendary Tiger 131 in this size! The model has movable elements like the turret and gun barrel as well as rotating wheels and tracks. The elaborate set consists of 898 elements and faithfully reflects the original shapes of its historical inspiration. Our powerful block tank has been covered with high-quality prints that do not rub off. The colors, which are close to the original, deserve special attention, making the model look dazzling! The set includes a mini model of the Maybach engine, which can be displayed next to the model or placed in the tank under the service flap. The model has movable wheels and caterpillar tracks consisting of many links. During play you can drive the tank and watch the working caterpillar traction! The hatches are opened and there is space under them for standard COBI figures. The figure depicts the tank commander in tropical uniform. The whole set is complemented by a white plate with the name of the tank and The Tank Museum logo printed on it! Build history, piece by piece, and complete your Panzer collection.

The Panzerkampfwagen VI, or Tiger, was a German heavy tank from World War II. Its characteristic shape is still recognizable all over the world. The vehicle itself became a legend and is still present not only in historical materials, but also in pop culture. The first Tigers reached the front near Leningrad and in Tunisia in August/September 1942. The tank designed and manufactured by Henschel was very modern and effective. Unfortunately, its production consumed huge resources of valuable raw materials and time. The Tiger I tanks and the few Tiger IIs had a significant impact on the course of war operations. The infamous and incredibly fearsome Tigers destroyed over 10,300 Allied tanks and 11,380 guns, with only 1,725 of their own losses.
