Question on the FOV 1/72nd King Tiger..

Post by nfafan » Wed Oct 26, 2005 10:02 pm

If someone has one of the FOV 1/72nd KTigers, can you please verify if it has the "zimmerit" texture?

The pics I've seen of it seem to show that it does NOT, yet pics of their Tiger I do seem to show a "zimm" texture.

Seems odd, as all but 2 of the Porche KingTiger's had zimm, and one would have thought FOV would have textured it as they did their Tiger I.

TIA!!
(None of these are available in my local Targets or hobbyshops so I will have to go mailorder.)

Yes the FOV King Tiger's do have zimmerit on them.

I actually for some reason have not yet bought this one despite the fact that it does look quite decent (Might be the fact I already have about 12 differant 1/72 King tigers ).

I did buy the tiger and for me it is very close call for my preference on the FOV or the Dragon tigers.

I really like all 4 of the ww2 fov 1/72 and will keep buying them as long as they make them.
