Tamiya 1/35 King Tiger Etched Grille: Improve the scale fidelity of your model

Dedicated modellers and armour restorers will appreciate the Tamiya 1/35 King Tiger Etched Grille for its ability to reproduce the fine grille work of the original tank. The set enhances the 1/35 King Tiger kit by replacing thicker plastic parts with thin, accurate metal detail.

High-resolution photo-etch detail

The Tamiya 1/35 King Tiger Etched Grille is manufactured as photo-etched metal to capture slim profiles and small apertures that add realism. These etched parts reveal subtleties in grille patterning that improve how the model reads at close range.

Ideal finishing touch for museum-quality displays

Fitting the etched grille gives a sharper, more lifelike finish to a completed King Tiger, helping the model hold its own in displays and exhibitions. The upgrade is a sensible step for anyone aiming for a museum-style presentation.

Specifications

  • Scale - 1/35

Some minor trimming or relief cutting may be necessary depending on the kit version. Test-fit parts first and make small adjustments for a neat installation.
CA glue is commonly used for quick bonds. For repositionable fits, use PVA for temporary holds and then secure with CA. Avoid excess glue on visible surfaces.
If the model will be handled frequently, consider discreet backing strips or internal supports to protect delicate areas of the etched grille from bending.
