This 1/16 scale Tiger I kit from Tamiya is aimed at modellers who want a faithful miniature that also functions well under radio control. The kit balances detail with practical operation for hobby use and display.
Known for its thick armour and potent main gun, the Tiger I left a strong mark on armoured warfare. Tamiya reproduces the vehicle's characteristic form and fittings, letting builders capture its wartime presence.
The model includes a working main cannon with flash and recoil plus authentic MG34 firing simulation. Resin and metal track components deliver reliable traction and a convincing appearance while moving.
Detailed engine sounds respond to throttle and direction, offering start-up tones and changes under load. Mechanical cues from the gearbox and turret bring added realism to running sessions.
A suitable four-channel radio system is required, together with two 7.2V Tamiya Racing Packs and a compatible charger. The kit requires assembly, so allow time for construction and setup before running.
Tamiya 56010 is well suited to collectors and RC pilots who want historically accurate styling with the option to run and enjoy the model outdoors or on layout tracks.
