Pz.Kpfw.VI Sd.Kfz.181 Tiger II(Henschel, 1/35 - Hobby Boss 84533

Release expected in September 2026.

The Hobby Boss 84533 model kit recreates a Pz.Kpfw. VI Tiger II with Henschel turret at 1/35 scale. This plastic vehicle kit represents a production configuration dated July 1945.

The Tiger II, often called Königstiger, belongs to the family of German heavy tanks from World War II. Its silhouette stands out in particular for its sloped armor and its large Henschel turret—features that make it an iconic subject for a late-war scene or a 1/35 German armor collection.

This snap-and-build model kit includes 580 parts, metal elements, photo-etched details, and individual link track pieces. Once assembled, it measures 289.9 mm in length and 107.3 mm in width.

At 1/35 scale, the vehicle is reduced thirty-five times compared to the real subject. Assembly is best done with precision tools, glue suitable for plastic model kits, and careful preparation of small parts. Primer makes painting easier, while weathering helps bring out the reliefs of the armor, tracks, and exterior equipment.
