Why this kit matters
The E-100 was part of Germany’s “Entwicklung” series, designed to standardise and simplify tank production during the final phase of World War II. The project aimed to create a super-heavy tank capable of mounting powerful artillery while maintaining mechanical reliability through shared components.
Only a partial prototype hull was completed before the end of the war, and the tank never entered service. Despite this, the E-100 remains one of the most well-known German super-heavy tank designs, often studied for its engineering ambition and extreme battlefield concept.
The Krupp turret variant reflects an alternative armament design that would have carried a heavy anti-tank gun with thick armour protection. This model captures the scale and presence of one of the most imposing what-if tanks in military history.
How to use it
Build using paint and glue. Use modelling tools for track alignment, seam cleanup, and turret detailing. Display as a standalone heavy armour piece or as part of a WWII German vehicle collection.
