Ryefield Models 5101 1/35 Tiger I Tank Late Prod. (Battle of Villers-Bocage)

Model Kit

This highly detailed 1/35 scale kit recreates a late-production Tiger I from one of the most famous armored engagements of World War II, the Battle of Villers-Bocage in Normandy during June 1944. The battle became legendary through the actions of German tank ace Michael Wittmann, whose Tiger tanks inflicted significant losses on advancing British forces in a dramatic encounter that has been studied by military historians for decades. Rye Field Models has captured the imposing appearance of the Tiger I with exceptional attention to detail, featuring accurate late-production characteristics, finely rendered surface textures, intricate suspension components, and a highly detailed interior and exterior. Renowned for its powerful 88mm gun and heavy armor, the Tiger I remains one of the most iconic tanks of the Second World War, and this kit provides modelers with the opportunity to build a historically significant vehicle that played a notable role during the Normandy campaign.
