The Panzer VI Tiger "131" from COBI is a unique set that allows you to create a realistic model of one of the world's most famous tanks!

The Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger, better known simply as the "Tiger," was a German heavy tank that gained fame during the Second World War. It was distinguished by its unparalleled firepower and armor, which turned it into a veritable fortress on the battlefield.

It first appeared at the front in 1942, with the initial units reaching battlefields near Leningrad and in Tunisia.

Over time, the tank earned great respect from the Allies, who had to contend with its immense striking power. However, the production of the Tiger was both costly and time-consuming; the limited number of tanks meant they did not have a decisive impact on the outcome of the war. During their service, Tiger tanks destroyed over 10,300 enemy tanks and 11,380 artillery pieces, though they also suffered losses—1,725 ​​tanks were destroyed. One of the most famous Tiger tanks is No. 131, which was captured by the British in North Africa in 1943 as a war trophy. Today, this tank is one of the primary attractions at The Tank Museum in Bovington, where it can be viewed in all its glory.
