| OOTB the DML Jagdtigers are some of that companies best kits. The Porsche version is pretty good overall. Both types Porsche and Henschel have inaccurate gun barrels. Beware of some of the aftermarket ones, as they are incorrect metal copies of the kit's too short barrel. The Porsche tanks could also have muffler guards (shown on the box top) that are not in the kit. I took these parts from an old Eduard p-e set for the Tamiya Porsche King Tiger. There are several detail sets available from Eduard to Aber, depending on how much effort you want to put into the kit. The kit does come with side skirting, although Aber has some etched skirts as well. The Porsche track is well done and unique to this vehicle, but Friul also has a metal set. |
