Takom 1/35 Scale Concept Military Vehicle Kit

Takom German Vk 168.01(p) Super Heavy Tank Concept (1/35) Item 02158

Takoms 02158 kit brings to life the radical German Vk 168.01(p) super heavy tank concept from late WWII. This massive conceptual platform features thick armour, a high-profile turret, and experimental chassis design capturing the scale and ambition of late-war German engineering philosophy.

• 1/35 scale injection moulded plastic model (Takom 02158)
• Overscaled hull and turret design with heavy armour layout
• Full suspension detail: torsion bars, road wheels, idlers, sprockets, return rollers
• Two-piece main gun barrel with mantlet and recoil housing
• Photo-etched parts for vision blocks, engine grilles, turret details
• Clear parts for headlights, optics, instrument panels

Note, glue and paints are not included, this kit requires careful assembly and attention to rigging and weight balance due to its bulk.

Historical / Concept Background,

The Vk 168.01(p) was a Porsche design study for a super heavy tank weighing over 100 tonnes with thick armour and powerful armament. Never built beyond paper, this concept reflects late-war German interest in massive breakthrough tanks. The model offers a “what-if” build that highlights scale engineering and conceptual design.
