That photo shows a replica, not a real Tiger tank.

There are no known photos of 134; you can check at TIIF.DE. I don't know whether it should have existed.

At the time of that kit, Dragon were drawing their own decals and they preferred unknown Tigers. Nowadays they focus on real Tigers that are very well known, and I draw some of the decals.

Well, there you have it. Make a model of the replica!

BTW, what's that one made of...plywood and papier mache??

There are some dudes in Russia who built a replica out of thin steel sheet. At first glance it looks the business.
