That’s a very impressive kit
I know people have said that the tiger is big, but you never really notice it …
except now that there’s a kit in Bolt-action size (1:56) with interior details and crew the sheer size becomes more real somehow.
Have stood next to one a few times at the tank museum and they are a beast. Must have been quite a shock to anyone having to fight against them, just seeing shells bounce off. This kit looks great, but not sure how useful it actually is at that scale. You are going to need a big table to really make the most of this. The 15mm kit from Battlefront is due this year? I have a Zvezda kit which is fine at 15mm.
At 1:56 any vehicle should be more like an objective… never mind something as big as a Tiger.
Something as detailed as this makes for a great objective.
Battlefront already did plastic Tigers. I think there was one in the Fury set.
hmm … wait, this is a King Tiger, right ?
Not sure if any of those exist in plastic at the moment.
Yes, there is, Warlord do a plastic 1/56 Tiger II. I have built both. And there is no comparison. The Rubicon kit is a vastly superior model.
Rubicon are probably designed to be detailed scalemodels suitable for wargames and it looks like they only do one scale (1:56).
The Warlord/Italeri are (likely) simply existing scalemodels adjusted for wargaming with mass production in mind. Italeri may have taken an existing product, resized it and called it a day. Cheap and effective …
And of course … this one has interior detail. I doubt Italeri have anything even remotely similar in their catalog.
With all the scale creep we’ve seen over the years, wouldn’t 1/48th scale kits actually be more in scale with the plastics from Warlord? The Perry WW2 plastics are smaller and slighter, so seem to fit 1/56th scale models better. I know Tamiya still do a fairly large range of 1/48th scale kits.
I wouldn’t call it scale creep, because that’d assume there was a scale at all.
My Google fu did find one website that compared a 1/56 warlord tank vs a 1:48 scalemodel. And the scalemodel did look a bit more like actual photos from the war.
So I’d say that unless you’re mixing various vehicle scales and manufacturers there’d be nothing that would weird.
Wow that one fabulous looking tank model kit.
Nice kit, it’s been awhile since I built a scale model tank. I may pick this up at some point.
Nice kit – would love to see this built up and maybe a wee painting guide/stream @johnlyons 🙂
If anyone is interested, my take on it is here:

like the subtle snow effect. too many times far too much snow on tanks and vehicles they only get covered if stationary and it comes off once sustained movement starts.
Wow! Well done sir
Looking forward to seeing an update on this project John. I’m a big fan of Rubicon models.
