COBI

COBI’s new Panther comes in a double pack. The differences, aside from the color, are limited, so it’s enough to build one of the two and start looking for differences.

Three small tracked vehicles are a big hit here. COBI shows again that even a small scale model doesn’t have to be without details.

Newer sets from COBI always come with interior fittings. This rather large V2 is no exception. You can also build the rocket motor and the fuel tank.

With this set, COBI has transformed the world’s fastest aircraft into an authentic model. The challenges of the thin aircraft were solved using construction techniques and molded parts alike.

COBI is not only good at making small aircraft, but also always manages to make large models that are authentic and stable. The Lancaster should easily fit in here.

Many COBI fans have asked themselves why another Tiger in 1:12 format. The Tiger variants currently predominate in the other formats too. Nevertheless, we have to look at what has changed in the new model.

Since the Ukraine war at the latest, the Panzerhaubitze 2000 has been on everyone’s lips again. In cooperation with the Munster Tank Museum, COBI has created exactly the model that can be seen there.

When a model gets a new version, it should of course be better than its predecessor. I took a closer look to see whether this is also the case with the new Challenger 2 from COBI.

In 1944, a Chevrolet truck was transformed into an armored vehicle in just a few days. Of course, it doesn’t take quite as long to build the authentic model from COBI.

Since both models are very similar, I built them in one go. After all, the Flakpanzer Wirbelwind is based on the Panzer IV and has only minimal differences in the hull.

Shortly after the new Tiger 131, another Tiger from COBI is coming out, which essentially only differs in its camouflage colors. The construction of the two models is almost identical.
