Build the History

Michael Wittmann's Tiger I S04 - Heavy Tank

$119.99

Michael Wittmann and his crew, Eastern Front, 1944. S04 was his command tank.

THE HISTORY BEHIND THE BUILD

By January 1944, SS-Obersturmführer Michael Wittmann had already established himself as the most feared tank commander on the Eastern Front. His Tiger I, serial number S04, was his instrument — a 57-ton machine he understood intimately.

In the space of a single engagement at Prokhorovka, he had accumulated a kill count that made senior commanders stop and look twice. That same month, he was summoned behind the lines for a ceremony that would define his legacy.

Wittmann received the Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords — one of the highest decorations issued during the war. S04 was the tank he rode into that history.

He didn't fight for abstractions. He fought for the men in the tank with him.

Michael Wittmann was killed in action on August 8, 1944, near Saint-Aignan-de-Cramesnil in Normandy. He was 30 years old. His remains were recovered in 1983 and re-interred at La Cambe German War Cemetery. We use this image with permission and with respect. This kit is not a toy. It is a tribute to the men, on all sides, who fought and died in these machines.

The quality of the bricks is the best I have seen outside of the big name brand. Tight tolerances, fit and quality are on par. Will I buy from BrixKrieg again — absolutely.

Great kits and superior customer service — no waiting weeks for a package. Had a small issue with missing parts and got an immediate response. Within days there was a replacement on my porch. Top tier.

I would love to put one of these builds on the contest table at an IPMS show and watch the rivet counters have heart attacks. The tracks rival anything found in plastic kits.

Quick delivery, great detail in both sets I bought. Very easy to build. I highly recommend BrixKrieg as your go-to site for WWII tanks.

I ordered from another company before I found you. Still waiting for my missing parts from them — five months later. Keep doing what you are doing. Really glad I found your business.

I wasn't expecting such a speedy response in such a short time. That speaks volumes of your customer service. Going above and beyond so quickly — thank you.

WE'VE GOT ANSWERS

No. The Tiger I S04 is a collector-grade building block kit designed for adults. It is not marketed to children, not sold in toy stores, and not built like a toy. The pad-printed details, tight tolerances, and 1:28 scale make it a display piece — the kind of thing that earns a permanent spot on a shelf, a desk, or a man cave.
The Tiger I S04 builds at 1:28 scale — substantial enough to be a commanding display piece without taking over your entire shelf. It is the most detailed Tiger I building block kit available at this scale.
Manageable for any adult builder. The instructions are clear, illustrated, and organized by numbered bag so you always know exactly where you are in the build. Most collectors complete it over a weekend. No glue, no paint, no special tools required.
Our California warehouse. Not overseas. Orders placed before 5PM Eastern ship the same day. 99% of all orders are fulfilled within 24 hours. Delivery is 2–7 days via UPS Ground.

That's for you to decide — but here's what you're getting: pad-printed details that never peel, collector-grade tolerances, a historically accurate 1:28 scale build, fast US shipping, and a company that stands behind every single order. This is not a cheap kit. It is not priced like one either.
