TAKOM KING TIGER WITH INTERIOR

Post by RichardT »

For those Tiger nuts out their TAKOM are producing 3 King Tiger kits with interior - in both turret styles plus a 505th with zimmerit.
Its the same price as a standard Dragon kit.If its good as Rye Field's Tiger 1 with interior then us Tiger modellers
will be in a very good place.

PS just built RYE FIELD Tiger 1 5003.I combined some parts from their 5005 kit.You can build any really wonderful early Tiger 1.
For those guys going down the Kursk road use 5003 and 5005 and a RB Barrel and a fender set.What you will end up will really surprise
and impress you.

I have no bias but apart from a few modifications required to correct a few inaccuracies - 5003 is light years ahead of
anything on the market. I SHOULD KNOW - I have just built 12 Tiger 1 with interiors.

Rye Field need to do two things-

1/sell the interior separately
2/produce a mid and late kit with interior

Dragon kits are still really very good - but they are now being surpassed - and do not represent the best value for money.

I really fancy the idea of doing an AFV interior, especially a Tiger, given its size. I'm just wary of so much of the work not being seen once its done. Still think I might get one though! :tongue:
Its been tried and tested, it works! So don't blame the system if you're no good. :doh:
