One of the most impressive AFVs to participate in the Battle of theBulge, Germany’s unexpected last roll of the die when it attackedthrough the Ardennes forest in WWII, was Kingtiger. Such tanks wereaccompanied by members of the 3rd Fallschirmjäger Division, eliteparatroopers of the Luftwaffe, during the sudden massed attack launchedon 16 December 1944. However, neither these battle-hardened troops northe mighty Kingtiger tanks could turn the tide of the war, and the German counteroffensive petered out by 25 January 1945.

Dragon is releasing a very handy new 1/72 scale kit of a Kingtigerw withHenschel turret. What makes this release unique is the inclusion ofEIGHT figures representing members of the 3rd Fallschirmjäger Divisionalongside the mighty tank. This means a diorama scene can be createdstraight from the box, with the figures riding on the rear engine deckof the Henschel-turreted tank. The paratroopers are well equipped andcan be armed with various kinds of weapons. Meanwhile, Dragon hascaptured this mighty Kingtiger tank to perfection in the 1/72 scalemodel kit. In the past, these Fallschirmjäger figures could only beobtained by purchasing two separate sets, but now they come in one convenient kit.
