Operation of OX Head (Ochsenkopf)

The box art of Dragon 6328, the Initial Production Tiger from second Kompany of 501 Abt. in Tunisia. 

The Dragon in mainland China announced that new product will be released to market in June or July 2022.

This new Dragon product depicts an Initial Tiger from 2nd Kp. of 501 Abt.. I know most of experienced model builders could also use the existing products in market (i.e. Dragon 6608 or RFM 5001U) to recreate this new Tiger. However, I think I will probably purchase this new product once it is available in marketplace. Another opportunity for me to waste budget, but I just cannot stop to do that.

By the way, the good new is that magic track will replace the DS track. 

The painting instruction will be sorted and printed in a booklet. It will include all 14 Tigers which participated the Operation of Ochsenkopf. 

Bonus decal will be provided. It offers modelers a chance to make Tiger 01 or 02 (commander vehicles). 

‘Tiger 823’ - new tools for storage bin on turret. Air cleaner were installed later when it launched to North Africa and they were painted in RAL8020.
