The Tamiya 23619 King Tiger is a 1/16 scale model that recreates the imposing German heavy tank in ready-to-run form. It ships with a 7.2V rechargeable battery and a 4-channel radio control system, aimed at modellers who want historically faithful appearance and dependable operation.
This R/C King Tiger reproduces both look and function, including a rotating turret and an operable 88mm gun that raises and lowers. The integrated sound system is based on recordings from the sole operational King Tiger at the Saumur Museum, recreating the Maybach HL230-P30 engine tone and the distinctive clatter of tracked movement.
The model features a relief-printed texture that imitates the Zimmerit coating used on late-war German armour, enabling an accurate representation of surface detail without additional modelling steps.
Two selectable engine start sounds provide additional realism, letting you switch between an electric motor starter tone and a crank starter profile. The track system and drive train give the model steady motion for forward, reverse and turning actions.
Tamiya 23619 King Tiger is well suited for collectors and active RC modellers who seek a ready-to-run tank with convincing sound, scale detail and reliable handling.
