Not good news if you are an Allied tank commander – our King Tiger tank now also comes with zimmerit anti-magnetic mine paste. As if they need any more help to hold off Allied armor!
One of the defining features of mid/late-war German armor is the use of zimmerit anti-magnetic mine paste. It's rough texture, which comes in a variety of patterns, makes painting panzers much easier, as you can apply your usual techniques of drybrushing, blending or washes – something that can give a less than satisfactory result when applied to flat surfaces.
Our King Tiger is a resin-and-metal beast, armed with a long 8.8cm gun. Its sloped, exceptionally thick armor provided it with ample defence against all but the most powerful Allied guns. This model has the Henschel production turret, but you can be sure the less numerous Porsche turret will be on the way…
For those of you wanting your King Tiger as they rolled off the production line at the factory (i.e., sans zimmerit), we also have our current King Tiger model…
Get your hands on three of these beasts (can you hear your opponent weeping yet?) - with your choice of either zimmerit or not - in our webstore as a special-offer platoon deal.
