BTW, don't give in and get the FOV Action-grade M3 Lee. Its really not all that impressive in its current state and definitely needs the weathering the Enthusiast version should bring. A few more accessories would be nice as well

FOV Tiger I's are hard to find even on eBay, Target had an Action series version and I debated it for quite some time but decided to pass. It just looked too much like something I would have had in my sandbox as a kid. I'm pretty sure there are less opening hatches and other details on the Action series armor. From what I could tell, only the commanders hatch opened. The grates over the engine compartment were open but there was just an empty space inside.

I have an FOV Tiger I that I got at Target. It is the same mould as the Enthusiast versions, which is actually one of FOV's older tanks. My Target Tiger (Normandy 1944 version) is painted and weathered just like the enthusiast tank, from what I've seen in pictures. It came with the same accessories as well. The FOV Tiger actually has fewer opening hatches than the 21c version - only the commander, loader, engine and fuel/radiator hatches open, and the tank should have the engine, fueltanks, and radiators detailed. Unfortunantly, the driver, fwd. gunner, and turret loading hatch do not open. Still, I think its a very nice tankRowsdower wrote:FOV Tiger I's are hard to find even on eBay, Target had an Action series version and I debated it for quite some time but decided to pass.

Hmm, pretty much all this Tiger came with was the commander, an antennae and some cable. This tank also had zero weathering besides the hideous thick black panel lines. I have heard that you can sometimes catch an Enthusiast model in the Action series box at Target which is why I check everytime I'm in there. I guess you got the lucky box.tmanthegreat wrote:I have an FOV Tiger I that I got at Target. It is the same mould as the Enthusiast versions, which is actually one of FOV's older tanks.
