Panzerkampfwagen I

page 4

In the 1938 Elastolin price list Haußer offered a new tank model under the internal number of 737/2. Unfortunately there are no pictures of this model available in the price list. However, there do exist pictures of a tank I model from the Haußer photo archive. This model is known by collectors as the "Hausser Tank".

Around 1939 Tipp & Co produced a a model of the tank I too. However the scale of this model is a little bit larger then the scale of the 7.5 cm soldiers. Nevertheless it is a very well manufacturered model with a nice clockwork engine for driving and simulating the machine gun fire with "Amorces". Unfortunately the turret is not movable which prevents it from aiming at targets on it's flank positions.
