you could buy the early type ones for 1/16 tigers on ebay awhile ago, i bought some, they are cast by the seller and just needed finishing off and painting, they are good too!

1. The original flat mantlet
2. Mantlet with built-up area at the eye holes
3. Tiger (P) flat mantlet with notched corner
4. Mantlet with one eye hole
And for the latter three, the Befehls version with no MG port

Total; 7 types of mantlet

Fiefel with two upper chambers run from November 1942 production until March 1043 when the simplified single upper chamber was introduced. Fiefel were discontinued from October 1943, so the type fitted is dependent on when your tiger 1 was manufactured. Interestingly the small mounting plates for the hoses on the top of the hull were still fitted up to December 1943. Regards Dug
