Eduard 35976 Tiger I Ausf. E early 1/35 Tamiya – Photo-Etched Parts Set

Eduard 35976 Tiger I Ausf. E early 1/35 is a professional photo-etched brass detail set dedicated to the 1/35 scale Tamiya Tiger I Ausf. E (early version) tank model. This product belongs to a group of modeling accessories intended for enhancing plastic model kits. With this set, modelers can give their WWII German tank model a unique level of realism and intricate detail.

The Tiger I Ausf. E was an icon of the German armoured forces, used extensively by the Wehrmacht on all fronts of WWII between 1942 and 1945. It was renowned for its powerful armament – the 88 mm KwK 36 gun – and thick armor, making it one of the most recognizable and fearsome tanks of that era. Early versions of the Tiger I saw action in North Africa, near Leningrad, and on the Eastern Front, leaving a lasting mark in armored warfare history.

The featured Eduard set is made from high-quality brass using a photo-etching process, allowing the creation of ultra-thin and realistic details not achievable with traditional plastic kits. The set contains three precisely crafted frets with details such as handles, guards, grille elements and other parts to upgrade both the interior and exterior of the tank. This enables a much greater level of constructional and historical accuracy for the early Tiger, far beyond what is possible straight out of the box.
