Hello and welcome to Scale Stuff, In this weeks video I am going to be reviewing the 1:35 scale Jagdtiger Sd.Kfz. 186 Porsche Production type model kit made by Takom kit No. 8003.
In this video I talk about the real Jagtiger, look at the kit, and go through my build of the model pointing out a few areas that I had a bit of trouble with that I think you should look out for when building this model at home.
Over all the Takom Blitz Jagtiger is a really nice model ,but there are a few little bits in this kit that let it down.
There are a few issues with staging, as I think adding the front armour plate to the model would be easier to do earlier on in the build before all the little details go on. And two parts of the model have a little bit of a problem with fit, these bits are the tension wheel axles in step one and the manlet fitting in step 18
also the decals are a little thick and the paint plans dont line up
But despite my nit picks I still I really enjoyed building this model kit , it does go together well for the most part and makes into a nice model with some very nice details
As always thank you for watching my video I hope that if you are building one of these kits at home that you find this build review video helpful
