                  Due to a sudden and unexpected (unhealthy?) interest in German Artillery this tempted me while at a rather odd hobby show.
                  (98% model railway. 1% RC .5% girlie things and the last .5% plastic models One table selling paint and the like another selling models and stuffed into a corner by the café IPMS Denmark!
                  Anyhow. This said something to me:

                    Like you i have entered the muddy world of German armour. I cannot get excited by allied armour though.

                        Does the Tiger include the figures? The box art would make a great dio.

                            I don't think the people are, but the dog is! It's a 3d print as well!

                                But didn't that fail due to different fuels being used?
