Hes incorrect, thats a 1st issue XD Tiger 1 in 1:18 scale. Refer him to 21st website, I'm sure there a pic for comparison there.

It's got to be the first issue Tiger if he bought it a couple of years ago. The re-issue die cast grey Tiger wasn't out then. Looks like the first issue to me.
Why he is saying this is bigger than 1/16 is beyond me. Even if he's comparing it to a 1/16 Sherman it would be about the same size. He's either lying (for some strange reason) or he is going by memory of what size 1/16 tanks are and just thinks this is bigger..

Probably just confused. That is the origional gray Tiger, and the commander was not undersized on that vehicle!

Maybe he thinks that because the number 18 is greater than 16, that this makes the scale bigger. Who knows.

No,he says he has 1/16th tamiya tanks and that the one he is selling,which is certainly 1/18th is measurably bigger,but you are right,who knows?

He's confused, and doesn't know what he's talking about. I agree, it's a 21st First issue Tiger!
