I don't care about the interior, what does it offer on the outside compared to dragon?

You will be able to buy with or without interior and looking at pre-order prices, without interior cheaper than the Dragon kits, and going by the pictures with out the need to buy AM decals for the Schwere Panzer-Abteilung 505th knights as the Dragon ones have them both facing the same way. Unless you what a different scheme that is.

This looks like another winner. We may all have to toss out all those Tamiya and Dragon Tiger II kits.

Beg to differ as mine are both facing the same way and I only have one option in my kit.

Okay,but apparently not all of them as mine were fine.

You didn't say you had a kit,your quote seemed to say "going by the pictures",so I produced mine to show that they were indeed facing both ways.

Maybe a bad set in yours ?

Going by the picture of the MENG kit NOT the Dragon kit which has in my case a set of horses charging in the same direction.

I have two Dragon Tiger II's, Kit numbers 6232 and 6254.
