A plastic kit of the German E-100 Super Heavy Tank (Trumpeter) in 1:35 scale: the giant German super-heavy tank of the end of the war, which remained at the project and prototype stage.
Responsibility details are not available.
An injection-molded plastic kit of a super-heavy tank in 1:35 scale from Trumpeter. The E-100 was one of the heaviest German projects of the close of the Second World War, and the model captures it in its intended combat form with a massive turret and a large-caliber gun. The package holds parts in gray plastic, a one-piece turret made by slide-mold technology, photo-etched sheet and tracks for the running gear.
The E-100 belonged to the German Entwicklung (E) series, which was to unify and simplify the production of armored vehicles through standardized components. At a weight in the order of 140 tons it was to be the heavier counterpart of the Maus, protected by exceptionally thick armor and armed with a large-caliber gun in a turret derived from the Maus. Because of its giant weight it would have depended on a special transport solution and its mobility would have stayed limited. By the end of the war only the chassis of the prototype had been brought near completion; the machine never reached series production or combat service.
Finish the running gear and the lower tub, which are harder to reach later, before closing the hull. The one-piece turret made by slide-mold technology makes the build easier and calls for no filling of parting seams. We recommend a primer, an airbrush and thin cement for plastic; glue the photo-etched parts with cyanoacrylate glue. Tonal transitions, washes into the recesses and pigments for dust and mud suit the broad areas of armor excellently; the edges and projections can be brought to life with gentle paint chipping and dry-brushing.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
