Plastic Model Kit Cobi Pz.Kpfw. VI B Tiger II Königstiger 1:35 scale (COBI-2732)

The Cobi Plastic Model Kit Pz.Kpfw. VI B Tiger II Königstiger 1:35 scale is a detailed static assembly kit that reproduces the form and proportions of the WWII heavy tank at a 1:35 scale. The kit provides injection-moulded plastic parts and components intended for assembly into a display-ready model. It is suitable for hobbyists and collectors who focus on historical accuracy, diorama building and scale painting. The model is designed to allow either glue-assisted or snap-fit assembly depending on the parts supplied in the box and the builder’s preferences.

Advantages

The kit delivers accurate external proportions, finely moulded surface details and a comprehensive set of components that represent the characteristic hull, turret and running gear of the Tiger II. Parts are engineered to fit together cleanly to reduce the need for extensive filler or reworking. The 1:35 scale provides a balance between detail and manageable model size, making the finished model suitable for display cases and dioramas. The plastic material is stable and paintable, supporting a range of finishing techniques from simple brushing to advanced weathering.

Suitable for

• Collectors seeking a display-quality static model of the Tiger II heavy tank
• Modelers building historical dioramas and battlefield scenes
• Hobbyists practicing scale painting and weathering techniques
• Experienced builders who want a detailed assembly project at 1:35 scale

How to use

Open the box and check the included sprues, instruction manual and any decals. Follow the step-by-step instruction sheet to separate, test-fit and assemble parts in the indicated sequence. Use modelling glue on joints specified for adhesive assembly; where snap-fit parts are provided, press components together firmly according to instructions. After assembly, prepare the surface by cleaning and priming before applying paints. Apply decals once base coats are fully dry, then finish with clear coats or weathering effects as desired.

Recommendations

Use a modelling knife and sprue cutters to remove parts cleanly, and a fine file or sanding stick to smooth attachment points. Choose appropriate plastic model adhesives and solvent-based or acrylic primers and paints compatible with polystyrene. Work in a well-ventilated area and allow sufficient drying time between paint and glue steps. For diorama use, secure the model on a base to protect delicate components during handling and display.
