Holy sh!t! A Mark VI Tiger. I want one of those!
AK47, you might be the first person who can answer a question I have had since first watching Kelly's Heroes and then again, later, watching Saving Private Ryan. The Tiger-I tanks in those two movies appear just like yours. They appear exactly as the originals did back in '44-'45 above the tracks. BUT, the original Tigers the Krauts used in WWII had those interlocking wheels within the tracks (see photo below and/or watch any old film footage of those beasts rolling through Russia or France). Yet, all versions I've seen in movies (and yours) have a different wheel system. Why? Did they drop a Tiger-I chasis on another tank suspension or something?

Re: Garage space
Hi there well done i give you ten out of ten for looking close at each items the privite Ryans are built on top of T-55 AM2 chassis they are not the real items as mine is built on top of T-34/85 chassis No Tiger tanks in any films are the real thing one good reason is that these tanks fetch upwards of 1m USD min ,,my tanks were in some films all three tigers were on T-34s but i noticed that underneath there was WW11 T-34s even better.
Well noticed Sir`

So, are you saying that your Tiger is a replica built on the T-34 chasis? If so, when was it built and how accurate is it in the interior?

Re: Garage space
Can you take a photo of your H2 next to that Tiger? I'd be interested to see the size comparison.

Not sure if I understand: AK47, are those real Tiger bodies set on top of a T-34 chasis? Or are they completely built-from-scratch replicas using a T-34 chasis?

You should get a Tiger-II - it has no/few right angles either, and was almost impossible to destroy other than from the air.

Are they comparable to the real ones in terms of weight and other specs?
