Heng Long German Tiger 1 Handmade All Metal 1/16 Scale Heavy Tank - RTR

German Tiger 1 Handmade All Metal 1/16 Scale Heavy Tank – RTR from Heng Long - HLG3818-008

Few armored vehicles in military history command the same respect as the German Tiger I. Introduced in 1942, the Tiger I quickly became one of the most feared tanks of World War II thanks to its devastating 88mm KwK 36 cannon and exceptionally thick armor. Designed to dominate enemy armor at long range, the Tiger I earned a legendary reputation on battlefields across Europe and North Africa. Its combination of intimidating firepower, rugged construction, and unmistakable silhouette made it an icon of armored warfare that still captivates scale model enthusiasts today.

Now, modelers, RC tankers, and collectors can experience one of the finest expressions of a handmade 1/16 scale unpainted RTR tank with this all-metal masterpiece from Heng Long. Built for enthusiasts of premium scale models who demand realistic operation, durable construction, and authentic detailing, this model combines superb performance with impressive scale realism to delight the most discriminating armor enthusiast. Like the HLG3818-004 1/8 scale Tiger I, this model is individually handcrafted from steel and aluminum components and assembled by a skilled factory craftsman. Each model arrives with a serialized plaque and is carefully packed in a sturdy aluminum crate with gentle polyfoam nesting.

The Tiger I features a full metal drivetrain, metal tracks, sprockets, road wheels, and idlers, while the realistic sound and exhaust smoke effects, BB firing capability, and LED lights, are masterfully controlled by the Heng Long TK 7.1 MFCB. Infrared battling requires the separate purchase of an IR emitter (HLG6023-002, ADM6023-001, or ADM6023-002). A heavy-duty 3800mAh Li-ion battery and convenient USB charger deliver long run times for maximum enjoyment.
