The newly arrived 007 Tiger. One rear fender is popped off, missing part of the hing on the drivers hatch. The decals are silvered and not set into the zimerrit. It would need decal trimming and some solvaset to help.

Wish I had seen your pictures first this morning!!!!

Well should get mine next week with the extra crew & think the Tiger look good but will get my mate to repaint the numbers
 
I spoke with Thompyt and he indicated to me that he did not use a flash when taking his photos.This is evident with the 007 decals having a "Matte" appearance in his photos where as my flank photo shot of the 007 using a flash did not do this Tiger the proper justice that it truly does deserve. If you are on the fence about getting this Tiger, don't be. It is a very nicely done piece.... IMO. The size and scale is correct....Full size 1/30 scale and the camoflage paint is matte and nicely done. Also the painting and detail of the 2 crewmen that are included are also just as well done !!!! :rolleyes2:
 
This new Tiger is an outstanding looking model. I will be getting one and will not let the matter of the decals deter me. CS just plain makes a superior product at a good price point, so one little glitch can be overlooked and corrected if need be. In the final analysis, as everyone likes to say, buy what you like, and I like CS products.^&grin -- Al
 
My order is back on!!! I must have been having a bad morning. The wife could not believe I had cancelled the order and re-ordered it for me whilst I was out. Don't know why it got me so much, not normally affected by this kind of thing as the amount of repaints and touch ups I do for myself and others means, this is a very small job. Already remade some decals for the turret and will sort out the drive sprocket. I also like CS and, would have been mad to have missed the 007 variant.

Michael I'm sure you asked this question every time CS have a new item , I bet you would not like it if your dear wife asked the same question when your in bed every time ^&confuse^&grin

Good to hear. The pics from Thompyt give a better representation of the tank. My camera flash must have been on steroids !!! {sm2}

That's why I make sure she never has another model to compare against.{eek3}^&grin Seriously, though I have several CS vehicles, I do not trust the math they use for scale. I have no intention of starting up the size issue again, but I will not buy another CS item without seeing it. That is just me. Michael
 
Michael...

Going by the last tigers my winter version is not much different to the K&C version in size and, Brian said this version was a full half inch bigger so, its going to be about as close to the scale that would suit you I think.
