Panda Commander Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) "Behind the scenes - the PlasTiger is being assembled. The "Technologist base deceiving and camouflaging" in Storkow made a great copy of a tiger for the Deutsches Panzer Museum - the PlasTiger. In this time-lapse video you can see the object arriving in Munster in April 2017 and being put together by the builders."

Pete in Lincs Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 What a great idea and a good looking exhibit. I wonder if they used Tamiya extra thick? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnT Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 See - putting track links together is easy ! Must have been a pretty big 3D printer though. And can I get a Chieftan for my garden please? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitewolf Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Now that is impressive!! At first glance you would think it was the real thing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Callahan Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 if you stand infront of this Tiger, you get much impression, even its just a 1/1 model, and you cannot believe thats just a model, coz it looks really really real. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longbow Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Looks like the Academy kit to me.... I'll wait for the new tooling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PF Naughton Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Hi, It looks like they kind of went for a Link & Length type track instead of rubber band tracks on this build 😉 PS. It also didn't seem like the road wheels were ever really connected to the lower hull from what I could see,😟 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escaflowne Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Hello, So easy to build a Tiger I 🙂 Thanks for the video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cometracer Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 What a lovely video and excellent reproduction of such a famous vehicle. One would never have thought it a replica unless one has seen the video. Impressive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DByrden Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 They have built an "impossible" Tiger. It has features of the earlier and later models combined. No such Tiger would ever have existed really. That's how you can tell it's a replica. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dnl42 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 That's hysterical! A diorama of a them assembling their 1:1 model would be a very cool diorama! And no, those road wheels are just sitting there, captured between the tread links. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the amount of time and effort (and no doubt expense) they went to, i'm surprised its not 100% accurate, specially in a Panzer museum.......

Harry Callahan Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Atleast they can show the dimensions of a Tiger I for the generaly public. Surely they didn't build it for rivet counter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
