Historically, the Tiger I (Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger Ausf. E) is one of the most famous tanks of the German army, used on both the Eastern and Western fronts—from the Battle of Leningrad, through Kursk, to the defense of Berlin. The 88mm gun was considered one of the most effective and fearsome of its time, and its ammunition was a symbol of destructive power.

Tamiya 35189 is categorized as an exclusive modeling accessory (“metal modeling accessories”) and is dedicated to modelers who want to add authenticity to their models and enhance the details of the turret interior and crew compartment. This product is especially recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers; it is useful when building dioramas with an open turret hatch or battle scene setups.

Assembly difficulty – 2/5: assembly is very simple, requiring only the skill to precisely position and, optionally, paint the metal components.
