    Why no King Tiger Repro Tanks?

    I've noticed the lack of King Tiger or Tiger II reproductions. I searched the net & found none either? I see lots of various efforts based of surplus tanks, but never a king tiger. Any ideas why?....or am i not looking hard enuff??

      The Tiger was the big baddie of WW2 that freaked so many out, though the Tiger 2 was heavier and all that. Just like "every gun was an 88" type of thing.

        One of the biggest problems is to get a doner vehicle to build the King Tiger on , unlike the copy Tiger 1 that are out there , the building of a King Tiger is more complex . Hopefully in time we might get to see one on the reenacting scene .

          The sheer size of the thing makes it very expensive and intricate to build. Try getting an engine to power a repro, even with light materials it would weigh heavily because of its size.
