German Jagdtiger-Germany Military Diecast Vehicle (1945), Scale 1/32

First time buying Forces of Valor die-cast models. Not dissaponted, the features are great. These are not Toys! They are very detaled collector items. What a great way to study WW2 German armor. I've bem to Aberdeen Proving Grounds in Maryland. Have seen the real tanks & wow! The detail of these die-cast models is really good. There are many tanks trucks, canons etc. United States armor also. They cost more than plastic but so much better. I will be buying several more soon. Recommended for sure. Thank You....

Excellent quality. Exceptional detail. Heavy weight for it's size. My 9yr old son has started a collection and this one is by far his favourite; only because a T95 eludes him;)

This FOV 1/32 Jagdtiger #201 represents the Jagdtiger commanded by Otto Carius, one of Germany's leading tank aces of World War II with over 150 kills.The Jagdtiger is approximately 12-3/4 inches long. Its features include an elevating cannon with movable barrel lock, movable treads, an opening commander's hatch with commander figure and diorama accessories. The workmanship and paint application are relatively good, but on the shovel, the brown paint on the wooden handle and the grey paint on the metal blade spilled onto the chassis itself which is sloppy paint application.Among the Jagdtiger's negatives are features missing that were on earlier FOV Enthusiast-series armor models. The most obvious omission is weathering (dirt, scrapes, etc.) on the chassis that was standard on the Enthusiast. This Jagdtiger #201 not only lacks body weathering, but also lacks weathered treads and wheels found on FOV's previous Jagdtigers.Another negative is that the rear exhaust vents on the Jagdtiger's rear deck are not perforated, but instead are solid plastic. 21st Century's 1/32 Jagdtiger has perforated vents, which make the model look more realistic, and Dragon's tiny 1/72 Jagdtigers also have perforated vents.Apparently, the missing weathering and perforated vents were budget-cutting measures. Also, the FOV's Jagdtiger's detachable spare treads located on the chassis and other chassis details are not as crisply sculpted as the 21st Century's Jagdtiger. The FOV's front-mounted machine gun does not move like the 21st Century's Jagdtiger. Also, the Jagdtiger's tools are molded onto the chassis while earlier FOV armor models had detachable tools.Overall, this FOV Jagdtiger is a good model. but due to budget-cutting measures, the missing features prevent it from being an outstanding model.

Perfect for my collection.

Sehr hoch Qualität, mit vielen Detailen. War einen Geschenk für meinen Vater. Bis heute steht auf dem Regal in einem sehr wichtig Platz.

UNIMAX1/32シリーズを集めていて、現在販売して無く、手に入れたかったので良い状態の物が購入出来たので満足しています。昔の価格よりかなり高い価格になっていのが残念です。

Nice detail, fast shipping, good deal!

Unimax propose cette nouvelle version du Tiger 2, nouveau camouflage, nouvelle numérotation (201 au lieu de 323).La bête à belle allure avec sa carapace en métal & son dessous en plastique. Le train de roues est fonctionnel (il faut une bonne pression de la main sur la structure pour faire rouler votre Panzer sur ses chenilles en plastique) & le niveau de détails est tout à fait correct. Il convient cependant d’ajouter que nous ne sommes pas ici en présence d’un jouet – comme l’on démontait & remontait de nos anciens « Solido » à l’aide d’un tournevis – mais d’un objet de collection, agrémenté d’un lot de bord dont certaine parties à disposer soi-même (sans colle). Cela rend la bête fragile voire très fragile, & elle a fière allure sur une étagère appropriée.La peinture est tout à fait réussie, sans débordements intempestifs ou trop grosses approximations de tons. L'on regrettera peut-être (histoire de trouver quelque chose à redire - restons gaulois !) le côté trop net, sans poussière de cette livrée ; à ces débuts, Unimax sortait des modèles salis & "abîmés" assez réalistes, qui avaient leur charme. La figurine méritera une ou deux retouches de tons dans le visage, la carnation est un brin trop uniforme.
