The Dragon Tiger models 6350 is Michael Wittman's tank. Wittman is a Tiger Ace during World War II.
This latest release from Cyber-Hobby is the Pz.Kpfw.VI Ausf.E Sd.Kfz.181 Tiger 1(early production) with markings to make Michael Wittmann's mount with 13./Panzerregiment 1 during Operation "Zitadelle" in July of 1943.

DML’s latest “Orange Box” Super Value Pack sees the Tiger I finally make it into their Cyber Hobby budget kit range, though I do note the RRP is higher than the usual Orange Box $29.95 USD and you don’t get the usual Orange Box bonuses like a set of figures. Still, considering this looks to be the old Cyber Hobby 6350 “Whittmann 1331″ kit (without the PE and metal barrel) that’s a cheap Tiger I kit as it now puts it on a par pricewise with the Tamiya Early Production Tiger I. I’m also assuming that means the new DML Tiger I Early Production kit ( 6269 ) announced at the beginning of the year is close to release.

This kit represents the Tiger of Feldwebel Bellof which was destroyed in April 1945. The Gruppe Fehrmann was formed at the beginning of 1945 from six Tigers and five panthers numbered F01 to F13 and commanded by Oberleutnant Ferhmann. F13 appears to be a mixture of features from an early and late tiger I.
