Only 3!! 1/15th Bandai Tiger 1 early 1/16th Tamiya King Tiger and Armortek early Tiger 1. There have been more in the past, the first being an Airfix 1/72 probably back in the 60's.

1,346 Tiger I's were manufactured from May 1942 to August 1944. If one wanted to not only model each Tiger I but also to paint one model to represent each Tiger I as it went through its career (with camo changes), and factor in losses over the war, then this might average some 4 paint schemes per Tiger. So one would have to buy some 5,384 Armortek Tiger I's.

Next calculate the time required to build and finish each one, then build a facility to house and show them side by side.......:shock:

I had warned you not to get me thinking!
