Cyberhobby 1:35 Scale Tiger I Tank

Post by lightning2000 » Sat May 13, 2006 8:30 am

Hi All,
Looks like Cyberhobby is picking up where Dragon left off as far as the 1:35 scale Tiger I tank goes. Their first foray is from schwere panzer abteilung 102 and bears the tactical number "100." Painted in grey, its anyone's guess if it'll come in special packaging and a limited edition card.
Here's the images and I'd love to hear what everyone thinks about this latest development:

I love these tanks.

Is this also part of the DX'06 show? Is it one of the exclusives? The Cyber-Hobby site says its making its debut at the show.

Ya got me! I dont see it in the Cyber Hobby World Premiere section of the DX '06 site yet the image clearly states its a "World Premiere Item," which kind of implies that it is. Sometimes I get the feeling as the left and right hands at Dragon/CH arent talking to one another!

Anyway, I think its rather nice and certainly different. No fenders and I'm guessing those are ammo storage boxes on the sides of the turret. Havent done any research on this particular Tiger to know for sure (hey, its Mothers Day and some things take a back seat to the Mrs.)!

Bit of a plain jane like the first one, not much effort on CHs part.

Nice, very nice.

The best part is to see some "movement" in the 1/35 line of products. It would be also a great surprise if Dragon would continue with it as well.

The 1st Tigers issued to the Eastern front had no turret storage at all, and the crew improvised by adding their own.. Tiger 100 had the storage boxes added to each side and was very unique.. :wink:

Does it come with a base or figures? Why so much $?
