Production of the Royal Tiger began in 1944, as the Second World War was drawing to a close. Equipped in a series turret of the type Henschel with an 88 mm cannon and thick armor, the King Tiger was a dreaded tank for the Allied Forces. The exactly reproduced kit in 1/16th scale shows all details perfectly and is fully functional. Thanks to two motors the tank can turn on the spot and also the turret rotation and the alignment of the gun barrel can be remote controlled. The engine sound was recorded on the world's only working Royal Tiger in the tank museum in Saumur-France. This is equipped with a powerful Maybach V-12 700 HP engine.
