• 1/35 scale German Tiger P003 Command Vehicle plastic model kit by Amusing Hobby (Kit No. 35A059)
• Represents the unusual Tiger (P) / Porsche Tiger heavy tank design developed in Germany during World War II
• Depicts P003 in a command vehicle configuration, making it a distinctive subject for German armour collections
• Based on the heavy tank project designed under the direction of Ferdinand Porsche during the Tiger development programme
• The Porsche design competed with the Henschel Tiger design that ultimately became the production Tiger I
• Captures the Tiger (P)’s distinctive hull layout and imposing heavy-tank proportions
• Features the characteristic rear-mounted turret position that visually distinguishes the Porsche Tiger from the production Tiger I
• Equipped with the familiar Tiger-style turret and powerful 8.8cm KwK 36 L/56 main gun
• Recreates the unusual running gear and suspension arrangement of the Porsche-designed chassis
• The Tiger (P) employed an unconventional petrol-electric drive system
• P003 is associated with the small number of Porsche Tiger chassis used for testing and development rather than normal series production
• The Porsche Tiger programme also provided the chassis basis for the later Ferdinand/Elefant heavy tank destroyer
• Command vehicle configuration makes this an especially interesting subject for collectors of rare German armour
• 1/35 scale provides excellent display presence and allows the unusual features of the Porsche Tiger design to stand out
• Ideal for collections focused on Tiger tanks, prototype vehicles, command tanks and German WWII armour development
• Excellent companion to Tiger I, Ferdinand and Elefant models for illustrating the development of German Porsche-designed heavy armour
• Suitable for prototype, training, command or alternative-history themed displays depending on the chosen finish
• Large armour surfaces and running gear provide excellent opportunities for washes, dust, mud, paint wear and realistic weathering
• An unusual alternative to the more commonly modelled production Tiger I
• Kit supplied unpainted and unassembled
• Glue and paint not included
• Recommended for experienced modellers aged 14+
