Corgi CORGI: 1:50 Scale Henschel Sd.Kfz.181 Tiger Diecast Model -- German Army, Kurland, Germany, 1944
Production of the Tiger began in August 1942 and by August 1944, 1,355 of these tanks had been built. The 88mm main gun proved a powerful anti-tank gun, but the superior mobility of Allied tanks allowed them to attack from behind or from the side in the hope of brewing up a Tiger. The influence of Tiger tanks on allied morale grew to almost mythical proportions and was known as 'Tigerphobia.' |

Corgi CORGI CROMWELL Mk. IV CRUISER TANK: Taureg II, 11th Armoured Division, Northwest Europe, 1944 1:50 Scale
Cromwell tank was used by the British Army during the later stages of World War II. The Cromwell was ordered in 1941 and intended to replace the lightweight Crusader 'cruiser' tank by being more heavily armored, and, it was hoped, more survivable in battle. Its greater weight was to be driven by a 600-horsepower Rolls Royce Meteor engine, a derivative of Rolls Royce's line of aircraft engines. Initial models, however, were powered by other engines and were designated Cavaliers and Centaurs when they entered service in mid-1942. The first genuine Cromwells with Meteor engines entered service in early 1943. |
