The race for the Tiger I tank has ended up in China! The first entrant from AFV Club is its late model with steel rimmed road wheels. Compared to the gorgeous set from Dragon, the components and concept of AFV Club's kit are utterly simple and orthodox. The parts design and construction are of a standard to match Tamiya's. Moldings are very fine, in olive drab plastic. The 88mm tank gun is represented with an aluminum barrel and the highly-detailed muzzle brake (4 parts) in injection plastic. The most notable feature distinguishing this kit from past models is the workable plastic torsion bars for the road wheels. With the gimmick of spring-loaded idler wheels and rubber belt-type tracks, the overall effect will be very natural (perfect for a diorama). A photo-etched set for engine grilles and five sets of decals are included. Truly a Tiger kit of the king's road!
