I have a tiger-1 early verison kit from academy kit number 1386.
and i want to get Friulmodel Tracks.
so does this veriosn on the tiger have the rubber wheels
cause Friulmodel Tracks has 2 kind of tracks one for the rubber wheel.
and one for the steel wheels,
i think i have to get the rubber wheels.

Hey Tazz,
I am building the Academy Early full interior Tiger.. I used Fruilmodel tracks.. Early type, and a Eduard barrel, which IMO, is far superior to the Jordio one..
As far as which barrel type to get, Get the one for the EARLY Tiger.. If you get one for the specific type turret, it is probably for the King Tiger that had 2 types, the Henschel and the Porsche..

Good luck!!!!!

One more thing Tazz buddy. All Tiger I (well, production tiger) is Henschel. There is no Porsche Turreted Tiger I.

That's right.. Porsche turrets were only manufactured on the KING Tiger (Tiger II).. #:-)
