      This is a plastic 1:35 Pz.Kpfw VI Tiger I (Early Version) Tank from
               Academy Plastics. It's for experienced modelers.

     The German Tiger tank was one of the most powerful tanks to see use in
WWII and was greatly feared and respected by the Allies because of its 88mm
main gun and thick armor plate. Tiger production began in 1942 and the tank
remained in production with minor modifications through the end of WWII.
Typically, Tigers had a crew of 5. They could travel at up to 23mph on hard
roads and were powered by Maybach 21,353cc V-12 engines that delivered 642hp.
