2024-25 Release List

I am in the same boat, Kampfgruppe. I was really looking forward to the Mid-production Tiger I without the Pfeiffel air cleaners at the very least.

Sadly, this one is just a repacking of a late turret with the early hull. Make the hull more in line with a Mid-production and I am in.

I will be getting some of the IS-1s. Although it too is probably a repack of an early IS-2 hull with a KV-85 turret, this is what I was going to do for mine until this arrived.

That Tiger is definitely a conundrum.

The description says "An early turret on a hull fitted with the smaller, Jan. '44, all-steel road wheels."

The issues that have been pointed out, about the Mid War Tiger, is disappointing. I too was hoping for the same sculpt that Pete outlined. I was ready to put in a company size purchase. With that said, is there no hope for this sculpt? Based on some documentaries, that I have recently watched, they talk about how damaged tanks did not necessarily get the same turrets as they were first manufactured with.. This is probably more common for the PzIIIs and PzIVs. Looking at it from this stand point, would it not be possible to have an early tiger chassis fighting with a later model turret? This could result from a early model tiger lasting to the mid war time period, before it lost its turret and the replaced with a more modern one... Just trying to make lemonade out of lemons... Still want to see a proper Mid War tiger..
