Description
Tamiya German King Tiger Production Turret Scale Model, 1:35
Tamiya’s scale models possess such intricate detail that they are often described as “museum items”. These models are nearly perfect replicas of full-size objects, shrunken down to a smaller scale. Through the process of assembling, painting and finishing these accurate models by hand, one is provided with a unique “three-dimensional” insight into the shape and vast detail of the full-sized object at a mere glance.
