Description

Exclusive to The Tank Museum – the pre-built 1/16 radio-controlled Tiger 131 with controller, rotating turret, exhaust smoke, realistic sound FX and BB firing functionality, plus much more!

This early Tiger I model from Torro has had the paintwork and markings applied to bring our most famous exhibit (pre-battlefield modifications) to life.

This true collectors’ piece – whether displayed or driven – it’s the perfect way to engage with the story of Tiger 131 in a hands-on, immersive way.

With a weight of around three and a half kilograms and dimensions of approx. 530x230x190mm), the remote-control Tiger 131 is ideal for the demanding model builder.

The Torro Hobby Edition impresses with 2.4 GHz circuit board technology with integrated loudspeaker. Due to the high weight, this model has superior driving characteristics, especially off-road.

The powerful model has a 2.4 GHz radio control and receiver. The power motors with optimized torque give the Tiger 131 a precise and smooth steering system.

Metal gears with robust gears and an improved gear ratio provide higher power. The proportional control allows you to start the tank very slowly and increase the speed smoothly.

The Tiger 131 moves forwards and backwards, also with a left and a right turn. It can also be turned left or right on the spot. You can lift and lower the gun and rotate the turret 320 degrees (160 degrees each side). Various engine noises and smoke fumes from the mufflers round off the realistic experience.

Great model!

The model is very good, the functionality is perfect and I feel like a child when using it: buy it without regrets if you want some good time playing open air!

Tiger 131 review

Pros: Pleasantly surprised with this R/C Tank. It's not really a toy and is quite heavy and solidly built. The paintwork is excellent with some light weathering and a believeable matt paint scheme. Experienced modellers will no doubt add their own touches to this.
Cons: Smoke is not too visible and mechanism may need a clean. Although proportional the model does lurch forward noticely so its hard to run it at realistic appearing speeds.
Overall a 9 out of 10 for a detailed model and special souvenir of my visit to Bovington.

This Tiger is an EXACT replica and we were thrilled right out of the box.

The attention to detail is amazing and the fact that it shoots pellets and smokes adds to the fun. The "cool factor" is super high!! My father-in-law was present when the real T-131 was captured in Tunisia so our connection to this tank is what spurred us on to order it. It is now displayed in our entry way!

The instructions were reasonable, but could have had a few more details to help get it running.
The charger we received with the tank was for Britain, we live in the United States, so we had to buy an adapter/transformer for it before we could get it working.

But all in all we absolutely love this accurate model and will be visiting the Bovington Museum to see the real Tiger 131 this year.

Tiger 131 Torro Review

This Torro is not my first, however really liked the 131 rendition. I guess my only negative that I wished the professional edition would have been offered. This provides metal wheels, tracks , and turret. Other than that, loved the tank.

Torro Tiger 131 Remote Control Tank

Very pleased with my purchase of this RC model recreation of the famous Tiger 131. Detail and paintwork is excellent and it’s great fun to drive with the firing gun and authentic sound effects. Impressed by the metal gearbox and lower metal hull which contains the little smoke machine. I think you can also retrofit the infrared battle system to Torro tanks so that will be my first upgrade task.
