Academy 13423 1/72 King Tiger Henschel Turret - Collector Overview

Why the Henschel Turret Stands Out

The Henschel turret variant is one of the signature configurations of the King Tiger, known for its silhouette and combat role. This kit highlights that profile, letting builders study the turret lines and hull proportions while assembling a faithful small scale replica.

Build Notes and Fitment Tips

Academy supplies crisply molded parts that balance surface detail with straightforward assembly, making the kit approachable for intermediate modellers and patient beginners. Pay particular attention when mating the turret to the hull and checking seam lines to lift the final presentation.
