Tiger II Königstiger 1:12 #2808 on the way from COBI, ETA early Dec, Limited Quantities

A true giant has arrived! An absolute icon in a new dimension and the largest model in COBI history, created from over 11,000 bricks!

It's huge. It's legendary and one of a kind! This is no ordinary model. It's a monumental work of engineering using COBI bricks! Something never seen before! This is a gigantic tribute to one of the most recognizable and fearsome tanks of World War II. Built from over 11,000 carefully designed bricks, this model is a true collector's gem, the object of desire for every enthusiast of brick modeling and history.

Panzerkampfwagen VI Ausf. B Tiger II, or The "Königstiger" was the pinnacle of German armor technology at the end of World War II. Introduced in 1944, it weighed over 68 tons, had an 88 mm gun and up to 180 mm of armor, making it virtually indestructible. Although fearsome, it was expensive, complex and prone to breakdowns. It was a symbol of both the power and desperation of the Third Reich.

The Tiger II, with turret number 104, was built in July 1944 at the Henschel works. It served with the 1st Company of the 101st SS Panzer Battalion, and its commander was Oberscharführer Sepp Franzl. The tank was abandoned near Beauvais in late August 1944, likely after being fired upon by a Sherman tank from the 23rd Hussar Regiment. In 2006, the tank came to The Tank Museum in Bovington from the Royal Military College in Shrivenham.

Collaboration with The Tank Museum – this model was not created in isolation from history. COBI worked closely with The Tank Museum in Bovington. This results in the most historically accurate reproduction of the Tiger II in COBI's history. This model is a history lesson in the form of a construction masterpiece.

Over 11,000 pieces! – this is not only the largest Tiger model, but also the most complex building kits COBI has ever created. The structure was designed to replicate not only the exterior but also the internal mechanisms and structure of the vehicle. This is a building challenge for the most experienced builders, providing the satisfaction of super-professional models! Incredible realism – specially designed construction elements, a recreated three-color camouflage typical of late Tiger II models, a realistic color scheme based on the Tiger 104 museum vehicle and perfectly reproduced proportions and textures make the model look like a miniature version of a real tank from every angle.

Realistic Tracks and Wheels – Rotating wheels and tracks ensure smooth movement. The running gear replicates the original, making the model suitable for both display and play for younger builders. The suspension is equipped with metal springs, ensuring the entire mechanism works and allows it to overcome small obstacles. The model uses ABS and fiberglass axles, which are stronger than standard axles and easily support the weight of this colossus!

No stickers, only durable prints – all graphic details, markings and tactical numbers are applied to the bricks using durable print technology, resistant to abrasion and the passage of time. This not only makes the model look great immediately after assembly, but also maintains its visual quality even after years of display.

Movable elements and full functionality – a rotating turret, raised and lowered gun, movable track traction, fully functional suspension, opening hatches, an included MG 34 machine gun model, engine details and a recreated interior – each movable element has been designed to reflect the machine's real-world capabilities.

Maybach HL-230 - The set includes a removable Maybach HL-230 engine, which can be displayed next to the tank. The engine model consists of approximately 550 pieces and could be a standalone assembly model. The engine can be displayed on the included display stand, which features a plate printed with the engine's name. The engine can also be mounted in the vehicle under the opening service hatch.

Display Plate - The set comes with a black collector's plate with the set name, model scale and key technical information about the original vehicle.

This model isn't for everyone. It's intended for slightly older fans, experienced modelers and those seeking not only fun but also a deep immersion in history and technology.

Your giant is waiting for you to bring it to life!
