Thanks for showing the changes of the Tiger I...….I have only the original one from years ago, and have been confused seeing photos labeled, 'Roco Tiger I", when they do not look like what I have.

You are welcome, I got a few of the new Roco version but I don't consider them that much better that I replaced the old ones. However, the "new" Roco Panzer IV and the Trident Panther are WAY better than the old Roco Panzer IV and Panther and those all got replaced.
Thanks for reading B.Hellman.

Nice set - a few more variations you should add(if you can get them; the Tomy Tiger 1 is an excellent metal HO scale model, better than the Zylmex, and with much more realistic running gear (although the tracks are a [very] weak point - they tend to dry out and crumble); and the Boley plastic version, similar to the Roco but more ruggedly assembled; you can actually play with them without parts falling off!

shotgun6 you are exactly correct, I have them, but not in this unit.
