The-Great-Ones campaign honoring pioneering model masters Shep Paine, Francois Verliden & Bob Letterman inspired selecting the elderly Tamiya #35056 Tiger kit to build.
Thirty plus years ago, I built the kit several times and was always pretty happy with how well it built despite its age. After collecting information and research, I hope to make some tweaks to improve the old kit. There’s a fair bit of Tiger reference in my library, which hasn’t really been looked at in decades.
What’s in the box plus aftermarket.

Preliminary Test Fit
So is something this old even remotely accurate dimensionally?
Stay tuned.
