  • Hi there. And welcome to our 1:72 scale series of diecast reviews. These will be a little different to our regular larger scale military vehicle reviews with a slightly shorter and altered format than normal. Thanks again for dropping past and if you enjoyed the video why not throw us a like and even feel free to subscribe ‪@heavymetaldiecast‬ to keep up to date with all our releases of all sorts of diecast cars, aircraft and military vehicles!
    Today's example is from Dragon Armor. It is 1:72nd scale and made of diecast with plastic accessories. A great rendition of the behemoth German World War 2 heavy tank the Tiger II, from heavy tank battalion 501 in Ardennes during 1944.
    Thanks again for taking the time to check out the video.
    Cheers

      Yeah its crazy how good they are for such small models!! I had been hesitant about 1:72 armour as I mainly collected it in 1:43 as they were nice and big, but these Dragon Armor 1:72 scale models have some really super detail. Thaks as always for dropping past!!

      The DeAgostini ones aren't bad either, we did a review on theirs first.

    I always preferred the look of the Porsche turret

    • @heavymetaldiecast
      @heavymetaldiecast  Před měsícem

      Yes these turrets do look nice, but the curved mantlet bottom could also deflect rounds down to the thinner top armor of the chassis. Same issue with early Panthers. They only used the turrets from the Porsche chassis because Krupp made 50 of them then Porsches design was cancelled in favour of the Henschel's chassis. Instead of scrapping the turrets they threw them on the first 50 Tiger II's that were made. Thanks for watching!!

    Tanks in 1/ 72 are just to small .

    • @heavymetaldiecast
      @heavymetaldiecast  Před měsícem

      Yes they can be a little small, wait until you see how small a sdkfz 222 is,haha. Its why I originally started collecting armour/vehicles in 1:43 scale, but fell down the 1:72 rabbit hole when just buying a couple to sit with my aircraft....and now oh well,haha. Thanks for watching!!
