Tamiya 35146 - 1/35 German Tiger I Late Version Heavy Tank Model Kit - Diorama Ready  [35146]

Tamiya 35146 - late production Tiger I in 1/35 scale

The Tiger I remains a benchmark in WWII heavy tank design. The Tamiya 35146 recreates the late production Tiger I at 1/35 scale, offering detailed parts that echo the machine's battlefield presence and engineering strength.

Authentic late variant features modelled

The late Tiger I production from January 1944 included several notable changes. This kit models the 88mm KwK36(L/56) gun, thick armor panels (reaching approximately 100mm in some zones), and the heavy steel-rimmed roadwheels that define the chassis appearance.

Detailed moulding captures the altered commander's cupola with seven vision ports, the AA machine gun ring, and other turret refinements that mark the late variant.

Construction tips and display suggestions

Assembly benefits from careful dry fitting and tidy glue application. Painting and weathering will bring out the panel lines and track detail, and the finished Tamiya 35146 looks strong in a combat or field diorama where realistic grime and chipping add character.
