The mighty German Kingtiger tank has always been immensely popular with
modelers, so Dragon is offering another variant from the ‘big cat’
family. It’s a 1/35 scale kit of a Kingtiger with a Henschel turret.
It’s also specially configured to represent a tank fighting in the
Ardennes in 1944-45, when Germany launched a major counteroffensive that
became known as the Battle of the Bulge.
While this 1/35 scale kit is a refined version of what has been
available before, a key change is the unique Kgs 73/800/152 tracks. The
running gear also comes with appropriate 18-tooth drive sprockets
matching the tracks. The Kingtiger’s turret and upper hull have also
been slightly refined as well. Additionally, there is a generous array
of photo-etched partss. This kit thus offers a convenient way for
modelers to create a Kingtiger ready to thunder through the wintry
Ardennes forest.
