The King Tiger made its debut in 1944, toward the end of WWII, and proved a fearsome foe to the Allies, with 150mm and 80mm armor on the hull front and sides respectively, and a powerful 700hp Maybach HL230-P30 engine. The first fifty had a Porsche-designed turret, but thereafter mass-produced King Tigers had an updated turret designed by Henschel. The L/71 88mm gun was upgraded from the Tiger I, and could defeat 170mm of armor from a kilometer away. Some 430 of these King Tigers were produced until the end of the run in March 1945, proving a constant threat to the end. Features Length: 294mm, Width: 108mm Accurately reproduces the Henschel \”Production Turret\” variant. Parts for two types of gun mantlet included. Rear escape hatch is movable while other hatches may be assembled in either open or closed position. Comes with commander figure.
