Tamiya 84273 1/16 Tiger I Early Production Detail Kit  [84273]

Summary of the Tamiya 84273 Tiger I Early Production

The Tamiya 84273 is a 1/16 scale Tiger I replica that emphasises historic detail and functional realism. This full option kit is aimed at advanced model makers seeking an accurate and mechanically faithful project.

Precision Detailing and Metal Upgrades

Using the Tamiya 56010 as its base, this limited edition adds a host of detail-up parts to increase visual and functional authenticity. Notable items include an aluminium gun barrel and photo-etched grille set, along with scale features such as the mantlet, air cleaners, under-hatch detail and a commander figure to achieve period-correct looks.

Electronics, Motors and Mobility

The Tamiya 84273 includes a DMD Control Unit and a Multi-Function Unit to replicate realistic tank actions. The pre-assembled gearboxes fitted with type 380 motors supply reliable drive, while the torsion bar spring suspension and pre-assembled tracks reproduce genuine handling. A 4-channel transmitter with self-neutral trim, for example the Futaba Attack T4VWD, is a suitable choice.

For those who prioritise scale accuracy and detailed operation, the Tamiya 84273 Tiger I kit provides a rewarding and precise build experience.
