Ah, as the others have said, you have quite an accomplishment there. The Zimmerit is fine-fine, and I especially like the folding fender and transport tracks, making a unique model.

Dang! The cast exhaust guards even have the casting numbers and lifting lugs!
Stellar craftsmanship.

OK, Mr. Blimp you are now officially my new Tiger hero
A late Tiger fresh from the factory in transport form before the support crews sprayed the first drop of Olivgrun or Rotbraun!!! I just love the simplicity of the concept that makes it all the more intriguing and original.
Exceptional work
Your attention to detail and craftsmanship boggles the mind
Just well done.
Now for the matter at hand-

I couldn't agree more. I had investigated them awhile ago and tried getting in touch with MichaelC about his connection to them here-

Re: Tiger 1 - schwere Panzer-Abteilung 504
Mr Bix ,Patrick at Hobby Summit in Hong Kong had advertised for a while on Ebay Tiger 1 transport tracks. These were old stock as I understand and were Kenny Kong items. Contact him to see if some could be made available other wise Dave and Julie at Forgebear. They would know if some one else makes transport tracks and how they may be obtained. John.
