Tunisian Tiger vs. King Tiger (1 Viewer)

[Vezzolf]

Was the King Tiger much larger or smaller than the Tiger of WW2?........I just received the K/C Tunisian tiger today and think its "very well" done however it is much larger than the WS71......is this just a scale inconsistency......

The KT was a larger tank than the Tiger. It was longer, taller, and more heavier and better shaped ballistically than the squat Tiger. The KT was a more attractive tank IMO and it looks more like an enlarged Panther.

True in appearance the Tiger II A K A King Tiger was based on the proto type Panther II which was still un the research and development stage.
