Overview
1/16 Scale German King Tiger Heavy Tank from Torro - RTR - TOR1112200701
Tiger II, Konigstiger, King Tiger. By any name, this German heavy tank was the most fearsome tracked weapon during WW2!
Faithfully recreated in 1/16 scale, Torro continues to grow its reputation as a producer of high quality, high functioning RC tanks. This Pro Edition of the King Tiger features more than 70% metal part construction, a 360 degree rotating turret, a realistic torsion bar suspension, and a barrel recoil and muzzle flash effect that fires in sync with the IR (infrared) battle system.
This version is delivered as RTR (Ready to Run), meaning it is fully functional out of the box.

All Metal Track System All of Torro's "Pro-Edition" tanks feature full metal drive systems. Single track links are connected with steel pins, propelled by metal drive sprockets and riding over metal road wheels and idler. Confidently conquer terrain with these durable metal tracks! |
![]() |
High Torque Motors Reliable metal geared gearboxes are driven by high torque motors. |
![]() |
Heavy Metal Castings Hoist hooks, spare track links and even simulated "welds" are reproduced in cast metal! Unsurpassed quality and realism combine to make this tank truly versatile as both a battle-ready and stunning display model. |
![]() |
IR Battle Ready Engage in friendly infrared ("IR") combat with other tanks using Torro's proprietary IR Battle System, both inflicting hits upon and receiving hits from opponents! Sounds and action signal each hit, until the 5th hit disables the tank. After 10 seconds, the disabled tank restarts and can rejoin the fight! |

Superb Scale Fidelity Molded details, metal cast parts, brass photo-etched parts, and functional elements such as opening hatches all elevate this RC model to the next level, making it a perfect display piece when it's not powering through the battlefield outside. |
![]() |
360 Degree Turret Fully rotate the metal turret 360 degrees, and move the all-metal barrel up and down to train on your target. Torro's integrated drive electronics gives you complete proportional control to translate your precise inputs to all axe of movement. Drive, turn, traverse, train, and fire! |
![]() |
Barrel Recoil and Muzzle Flash Effect The Pro-Edition of Torro tanks are distinguished by their synchronized barrel recoil and muzzle flash effect. When firing the main cannon, the barrel recoils at the same time that an LED inside the barrel flashes and a firing sound plays through the tank's internal speaker. Normally a costly aftermarket feature, this entire system is pre-installed in this Torro Pro-Edition King Tiger. |
![]() |
Exhaust Effect Glycerin-based "exhaust effect" simulates engine exhaust emanating from the two rear mounted chimneys. |
![]() |
Torsion Bar Suspension Unlike simpler models with basic spring suspension arms, this Torro tank features a torsion bar suspension system that functions like the real tank! Torsion bars impart positive downforce on the tracks at all degrees of rotation, resulting in significantly improved traction over uneven terrain. |
![]() |
Stunning Scale Realism The Torro King Tiger arrives completely painted and ready to run, resulting in a stunning scale model that you’ll be proud to operate and display. |

I wanted to get something even nicer for my second tank so I went with this one. The crate it comes in is a nice touch and definitely keeps it safe and secure while shipping or moving it. The weight is nice and the detail is definitely up there. My first issue was a problem with the speaker not wanting to work properly right out of the box. I messed with it a few times and seemingly fixed it and hasn't given me any issues since (I should mention that motionrc's customer service is on point with trying to help me resolve any issues like this). My biggest complaint, while not anything major, is that the turret has a lot of play and just bounces around when driving it. I can push it probably close to an inch before it catches and won't move anymore. All of my Heng Long tanks have almost no movement to them and they mostly cost a fraction of what I paid for this one. I've not powered this one up nearly as much as my other tanks due to being afraid of more issues so it makes for a great display model but I don't think I'd want to spend another $600 on a Torro model without being 100% sure there won't be these same issues. If I could do it over again, I'd probably get the Heng Long professional Tiger 2 instead and save a fair amount of money in the process.

Beautiful tank
Everything about this tank is good except the top part is plastic which doesn’t seem to be durable. But so far so good. Love it

Pretty Good
Heavy and very well detailed, but still a lot of brittle plastic. Bought 2 neither of them produce smoke. Happy with purchase though
