COBI Historical Collection WWII Tiger I 131 Tank

The world's only preserved and operational German Tiger tank from the Second World War is located in The Tank Museum in Bovington (Great Britain). It is the biggest attraction of the museum and is a real "star" among all tanks! The world-recognizable Tiger 131 was produced in 1942. In May 1943, it was captured by British forces during fighting in Tunisia. Transported to Great Britain after the war, it was placed in a museum exhibition, where, subjected to thorough conservation, it became a priceless artifact and a living history lesson! The mini model made of COBI construction blocks was designed on a scale of 1:72 and consists of 144 high-quality elements. When built the tank is 11cm long. Despite its compact size, the model retains all the most important features of its historical inspiration. There are German markings printed on the sides of the vehicle. Details such as service flaps and engine ventilation are also printed! The tank can be moved thanks to the mounted wheels. The tank's turret is also movable and can be rotated. The model is a perfect start to your adventure with COBI construction blocks. The Tiger 131 Museum Tank is also an interesting model and display-piece for collectors. It takes up little space and can easily find its place on a desk at home, at work or on a bookshelf. If you are an advanced block designer, too, the model will provide you with very interesting elements. Express your passion through blocks and build history, piece by piece, with COBI!
