Minichamps with this outstanding Tiger Tank have excelled again! A rare opportunity presents! ** The design study of the Panzerkampfwagen began in 1937 and it was in 1942 that the (PzKpfw) Tiger began to be produced. The Tiger differed from earlier German tanks principally in its design philosophy. Its predecessors balanced mobility, armour and firepower and were sometimes outgunned by their opponents. The general design and layout were broadly similar to the Panzer IV medium tank, however the Tiger weighed more than twice as much. This was due to its substantially thicker armour, the larger main gun, greater volume of fuel and ammunition storage, larger engine, and a more solidly built transmission and suspension. Although heavier, this tank was no slower than the best of its opponents. A redesigned turret with a lower cupola were the most significant changes. Many modifications were introduced during the production run to improve automotive performance, firepower and protection. Simplification of the design was implemented, along with cuts due to raw material shortages. The heavier Tiger served alongside the Panzer IV and I until the end of the war. Please wait for my invoice as cost of shipping is entirely dependent on global location of buyer. Post can vary considerably with the final volume and weight of package. Buyers be aware that International post can be expensive. eBay applies an additional fee for international post. No, I do not know why. Thank you.
