We present the extremely precise Master GM-72-023 set, dedicated to modelers building replicas of the legendary German heavy tank Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger I in 1/72 scale. This product allows for a highly detailed recreation of the gun mantlet (mantlet cover) – a key, prominent component of this iconic WWII machine. The set includes three different types of mantlet covers, making it possible to build models representing various versions and modifications of Tiger tanks that fought on the fronts of Europe and North Africa between 1942 and 1945.

The Tiger I was an icon of German armored warfare, used by the Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS and renowned for its actions at Kursk, Normandy, and elsewhere. The gun mantlet, providing a solid cover for the front mounting of the gun, was repeatedly modified during the tank’s service life. Thus, historical accuracy and high precision are essential—especially for advanced historical modelers.
