Continuing Dragon’s wave of 2-in-1 kits this model allows to build either a Tiger (P) coated or a Bergepanzer Tiger (P)
Only five Tiger (P) vehicles were produced in 1942. They were issued for training and testing purposes and only one saw combat as a command tank on the Eastern Front in September 1942.
Three hulls were also converted into Bergepanzer recovery vehicles in September 1943. These featured a raised superstructure at the rear and the only recovery equipment installed was a small derrick crane, rams and timber beams.

Modelers can decide which version of the Tiger (P) they wish to build – either the Tiger (P) tank with Zimmerit already molded on, or the Bergepanzer Tiger (P) without any Zimmerit on the hull.
That means the kit contains two complete hulls and chassis. Different photo-etched parts for each vehicle type are included in the box too.

Either vehicle assembles with ease, and the Bergepanzer Tiger (P) in particular has been out of stock for some time

This one sure has the potential of having a lot of extras to cram in the ol' spares box! I've got both and wonder if it isn't simply better to decide which one you want and buy that one as you are definitely paying for all those extra parts.
