Description
The Tamiya German Elephant Heavy Tank Plastic Model is a 1/48 scale military miniature assembly kit created for hobbyists and collectors. Its detailed fixed combat chamber, extended cannon, and flat welded design capture the recognizable appearance of the Elephant heavy destroyer tank. A commander bust and one decal are included by Tamiya to finish the display model.
This unpainted plastic model needs assembly and painting, making it ideal for builders who enjoy hands-on customization. Partly articulated integrated tracks and built-in internal weight provide the completed vehicle with a substantial feel. Adhesives, tools, and paints are needed for completion and are sold separately.

Care instructions
Handle the completed model with care, particularly around the cannon, tracks, and other finely detailed components. Use a soft, dry brush or cloth to remove dust, and keep excessive water and strong cleaners away from the plastic or painted finish. Place the model in a dry, dust-free area away from direct sunlight, and keep unassembled parts safely stored until required.
