The Italeri World of Tanks Tiger I was easy to build even for a beginner. You have the choice of 2 versions of the Tiger I. The early Tiger I and the later version with Zimmerit coating. (Zimmerit was a paste-like coating used on mid- and late-war German armored fighting vehicles during World War II. It was used to produce a hard layer covering the metal armor of the vehicle, providing enough separation that magnetically attached anti-tank mines would fail to stick to the vehicle, although Germany was the only country to use magnetic anti-tank mines in numbers.) The instruction will indicate the part of the early version of the Tiger I, if you prefer to built the later version with the Zimmerit, I would suggest to prepare and indicate on the instruction the part that need to be replace. You also have the option to install the fuel line and container on the back of the tank (but not indicate on the plan). Overall a big thumb up for the kit by Italeri, easy to built for beginner and up. The only difficult part is the building of the track. But Italeri provide you with an internet address of a video that show how to built the track... :)

The Italeri World of Tanks Tiger I was a pretty fun build, not overly complicated, most of the parts fit together well, a wide selection of decals and a free premium tank for your World of Tanks garage. One thing I thought was odd is that it came with a bunch of parts that the instructions said not to use because they were for a different kit. Overall a 4/5. I wouldn't recommend this kit to a beginner but I think it's manageable once you've got three or four builds under your belt

This kit had it's issues to say the least. The hull is in multiple pieces, none of which fit well and took many hours of putty & sanding to get rid of the seams. There were an overabundance of cast lines & flash that had to be worked. Detail is lacking & no PE parts. It did come with glue, but I use a different brand that I think is better. The decals were for gaming, not authenticity. Overall, this is a good kit for someone who just wants to put one together for fun & likes the perks of WoT. For the $$$, you might want to go with another major brand if you are serious about the finished product.
