Our first selection is from the monthly sale at Michigan Toy Soldier, where all the 1:35 Minichamps they have in stock are on sale for 30% off to preferred customers. Just sign up at their site to achieve that designation. We feature the British Centurion Mk. 5/1 Main Battle Tank - "Anna", 4th Royal Tank Regiment, Berlin Brigade, 1962.

About This Tank
Officially named the Panzerkampfwagen VI Ausf. B, the King Tiger was a formidable German tank weighing 69.8 tons. Entering production in mid-1944, it was armed with an 8.8cm KwK 43 L/71 gun and its frontal armor was up to 180mm thick. With such assets, this tank could easily prey on its less well-armed Allied opponents. However, its bulk and underpowered engine meant it wasn’t as effective in offense. Dragon Armor has launched a fantastic new fully built-up 1/35 scale model of a Tiger II. This is the very first Henschel production version of the King Tiger to feature in the larger-scale Dragon Armor range. The actual vehicle it is based on was a tank of sPzAbt 506 that fought in the Battle of the Bulge in the Ardennes in December 1944. Interestingly, this was the only Heer Tiger battalion to participate in the winter offensive.
