21st Century Toys Tiger 1 Tank Kit
Prototype Model :?: :?: :?:
Comes with Faluja IRAQ style City to Build and display!!
Includes Tiger Tank and 4 Soldiers and City you can Build and then Burn!!!
This Kit is a prototype version.
It is complete and in it's original box.
Actual item is seen in photo.

I emailed him about what size it is: he told me:
Dude, I have no idea what scale it is.
I inherited it. No markings on the box except a hand written description of the item.
I know it is from 21st Century Toys because my Uncle's collection of that type of item is ALL 21st Century Toys products. He knew someone that worked there. That is all I know for sure.

So- Anyone know anything about this??? TKO??
Do prototypes just leave 21st Century all the time??
I gotta work at that place!
It looks like 1/32 scale... What do you guys think or know?

You know, it does sound legit. Just this week I ran across 3 model kits all in 1/32 scale that are 21st products. They were on the model isle in WalMart. I had no idea that 21st was doing these but sure enough there was an M113, a wirbelwind and something else I can't remember.
It looks to me like he has the Box/Package prototype. I have seen things just like that to help determine package solutions. Cool find!

Yes, that's 1/32. The building "kit" is the corner building from the 32X playset - just unpainted. I can't really tell what figs those are.

There's been several "kits" at Wally's - Chaffee, 8 Ton, Pnzr III, U.S. Halftrack, Pnzr IV, 2 types of Shermans, Flakpanzer, and Mobelwagen (I think).
