1 /1 Tiger replica

Post by JWGoode »

Sorry if this has already been posted, it's remarkable & they really nailed it!
For a Russian movie about a "possessed Tiger 1" called "White Tiger".

What ever engine they used sounds great too. There are pictures of the tracks elsewhere & I wonder if they are the real thing, sand casting those properly from scratch would be quite a task.

I would love one but it would ruin the garden and would'nt fit into my car space at work.
Looking forward to the movie.

John,
Thanks for posting this. There are some video out there of the construction process as well. This is the best Tiger 1 replica I've seen, and the most convincing. The T-55 conversions are not bad from standoff range - 500ft or so, but this one looks good up close. The only detractor or giveaway for me was the skinny tow shackles on the front. The tracks look <and sound> really good to me. Scroll around and there are a couple Panther conversions that are pretty convincing too. This is a really nice build and it would be fun to crush some cars with it -assuming it is heavy enough to do that. :lol:
