Who makes em and who makes the best? Wanting to build a list from Fortress Italy and thinking a small crowd of em would be fun to push around the table. I have some experience with PSC Tigers and am wondering if other options are worth the increased price. Thanks guys -

All mine are PSC. I think they're excellent!

Do consider the Peter pig ones. They have lots of extra accurate detail including a gun lock and removed front wheel for eastern front types.

The Peter Pig ones are absolutely amazing sculpts! However I tend to use the PSC ones as they are so much lighter to cart an entire abteilung around!

I only have Battlefront's and they are incredible models, although they are probably the most expensive.

I have Battlefront and PSC. The PSC are definitely nicer.

Mine are Peter Pig. Lovely models full of character, but very heavy if you have a lot of them.

Looking good. Nice to see.
thanks

Zvezda just put out a Tiger, though can't speak to its quality. I like their KV-2, though you have to add your own hull MG.

A lot of the Tigers on the market are wrong. The turret is not symmetrical.

martin goddard Sponsoring Member of TMP22 May 2016 12:10 p.m. PST

Good point Geoff
Luckily the Peter Pig is correct in terms of the non-symmetry. However that is fairly minor at 15mm size?

I think that's because you and Chas both had the opportunity to climb on the one at Bovington (although that does have a non-standard plate attached)

Yes, minor, but quite noticeable.

pigasuspig, could you post a picture of the Zvezda Tiger?
