Love them or hate them there’s no denying that when most people hear the term ‘tank’ the first example that springs to mind is the Tiger. Even if by reputation alone, the Tiger 1 was arguably one of the most feared and well known tanks of its time. It terms of model kits there is no shortage of choice with just about every main-stream model manufacturer offering their own spin on the iconic vehicle. More or less every scale, version and sub-variant has been produced in styrene over the decades with every modeller having some opinion on which boxing is the most accurate or the best. A lot of are unfamiliar with Vespid Models as a manufacturer as they have only been active since 2020. I’d seen some of their releases online and as was curious to see if the hype was warranted. Although 1/35th is my favoured scale I do dabble in 72nd scale armour, so when the opportunity to build their new release Early Production Tiger 1 kit, I pounced on it. Join me as I take a first look and review the kit as well as take you through the full build process of this lovely little 1/72nd scale Tiger 1. * Please consider buying through the links as it helps me produce the content for this channel.
