1/35 Takom King Tiger ....sort of

[PanzerWomble]

Yeah yeah yeah  tell me how bad the 1965 film was, but aged 10 it sparked a lifelong interest in the battle, many trips and many hours of research later .

The film is terrible , it was only luck they had snow in the early part of the filming to make it vaguely look like the Ardennes 

So , Takom M47 , resin figure , just a bit of fun for me .

Nice weathering and finish. The figure's hair isn't blond enough for Robert Shaw! 😁

I may adjust 🤨 Fun fact about the film , all the Germans were played by German actors apart from Robert Shaw …who absolutely wasn’t based on Joachim Peiper …honest

Remember seeing this film when I was younger, fitter and thinner than now …

I never noticed the Tigers were M-47 … I’ll go to bed less stupid tonight ….

And nice job, btw 👍 !

Guy you just dashed all my memories into rubble...I liked that movie. The build looks great and yes fix the hair to a respectable soldier of WWII of the 3rd Reich
