Trumpeter 05553 1/35 KV-220 Heavy Tank Scale Kit

The Trumpeter 05553 1/35 KV-220 Russian Tiger Super Heavy Tank model kit is aimed at modellers who appreciate prototype armour subjects. The kit models the bulky appearance and armor layout of the KV-220, a Soviet-era experimental design that did not enter mass production.

Why the KV-220 appeals to modellers

The KV-220 represents an extreme in armour development and is interesting for builders who like rare or unusual vehicles. The model captures the tank's mass and structural cues, offering opportunities for custom finishes and diorama settings that emphasise its size.

Tips for a clean assembly

Careful trimming and test fitting are recommended to maintain crisp panel lines. Use fine tools for small details and consider pinning larger components for strength. Once complete, the model presents well on a display plinth or within a battlefield vignette.
