This Eurofighter Tiger Scheme Is INSANE 🇩🇪 | Hobby Master 1:72 Review

Added: 2026-05-31

[00:00:04][music] [music] >> Hello, welcome back to Dutch Diecast Collector or if you're new to the show, also a very big welcome. Today we got a Castle Tiger the Eurofighter Typhoon uh from the German Air Force from 2025. Um yeah, an excellent-looking uh plane.

[00:00:31]Big thank you to the people in the left corner, of course. And had it looks just really cool for Bavarian Tiger one.

[00:00:38]The box art, excellent. Uh we can actually spend a little bit of extra time on it. I added some lights, by the way, for this movie because this one has some bright colors.

[00:00:46]And I really want to show them as proper as possible. And also it's been a bit of a drizzly weather day.

[00:00:51]So I hope I can show you guys this best as possible. Now, the box art uh being that really great, I'm going to leave that here in the corner uh to show you guys. Now, box comes in a Styrofoam.

[00:01:02]You just have to unhook the tapies and then you will get the the plane out.

[00:01:06]Now, plane is protected, of course. Uh the stand's in the top. But then we start off right away with this awesome-looking little plane.

[00:01:14]Now, as I mentioned, I brought some light for this one. But it looks really excellent. Oh.

[00:01:20]I was already happy when I unboxed it myself because I first I was a bit doubtful when I if I should get one of these. Um I'm going to remove these because, yeah, that's nothing easier than it right now. I'm not really a big fan of the new um Styrofoam here.

[00:01:35]Now I got tape to my plane. Nice.

[00:01:39]So yeah, not a big fan. Let's put it that way.

[00:01:42]So what I would [snorts] do for sure, huh, just remove them if I were you.

[00:01:45]Let's throw these away. Now, the plane itself >> [snorts] >> huh, as I mentioned, I have some light extra for it. It looks really stunning, nicely glossed out. I'm not sure, it's probably a print or waterslide that's on there.

[00:02:00]But, it looks really good. Now, front tail metal.

[00:02:04]Everything is roughly metal on this thing, so it's really nice.

[00:02:08]Even on the bottom, I didn't even notice it yet, but uh there's even some detail there, really nicely done.

[00:02:14]So, yeah, you have a very cool-looking little bird, that's for sure.

[00:02:19]Inside the cockpit, a ton of details. Now, this time I'm prepared.

[00:02:25]Uh so, you guys can actually maybe see this time.

[00:02:29]Yeah, so the screens, the analog stick, and everything is nicely to show. So, that's really nicely done.

[00:02:38]Put that aside, [snorts] huh?

[00:02:39]What else did we get with it? So, a ton of parts.

[00:02:43]And of course, a set of wheels. Uh this one can go out of the way. So, that should also be an open canopy, if I'm not mistaken, but we'll find it in a sec.

[00:02:53]Yeah, so there is. So, now we get the fuel tanks from under the wings, extra set of missiles, the closed gear bay door, and then we open wheels, and then some extra missiles, huh? Cuz you can also dagger out with empty pylons and or missile pylons. And of course, a pilot figure. So, I'm going to get all these parts out for you guys and show you how that looks on wheels. Guys, so everything unpacked. So, the wheels are on the modular ones, so a big unit that clicks in.

[00:03:20]Always make sure you push on the white.

[00:03:23]Then, as for the front wheel assembly, should be also pretty straightforward.

[00:03:29]But, sometimes also can be a bit tricky, so be careful.

[00:03:33]Um it's not always said that they will fit very smooth or easy, especially the first time.

[00:03:40]Uh so, with the wheels in, I'm not sure if I have the wheel in correctly. I believe I do.

[00:03:45]And then, uh with the open canopy, of course, how would that look?

[00:03:50]That's pretty straightforward. And also, again, uh the paint striping is nicely continued there.

[00:03:56]So, I'll deck her out completely into flight mode and show you guys the finish on that. All righty, guys. So, in fully decked out, I have to say um I do love the logo on the bottom here from G74 with the little tiger. I have to say the tiger's details are sublime.

[00:04:12]Um if you want to go after market stand, that's also an option on wheels, then you can uh put the blind plug, and of course and the other option that you have is you could put the outer pylons empty, and you can remove, of course, the missiles. Uh for this case, I left them.

[00:04:26]I think it looks complimentary on the plane.

[00:04:29]The stand, very straightforward. And by the way, the tanks are really nicely done again.

[00:04:34]Uh I just shine some light on you guys.

[00:04:37]Um now, what I'm going to do, uh the parts that are left over, I'm going to show you quickly, of course.

[00:04:42]Uh so, these are optional parts um that you can go with. Of course, the tool.

[00:04:47]The wheels are very good. Um maybe a bit fragile, but just make sure that you push on the right parts. But first, I'm going to put her on the rotary. Hey guys, and there you have the finished Castle Tiger. I have to say, absolutely stunning. I remember [snorts] back in the day we had Herpa with some of these paint jobs, and they were always horrible, and this one is absolutely stunning. I highly recommend the model for you guys, uh so it's the HA6631.

[00:05:11]If you can still get your hands on one, I had the luck that one of my other suppliers had one in stock. Uh so, I want to thank him for supplying me with this one.

[00:05:20]But for the rest, absolute stunner. So, uh please like, share, subscribe, leave a comment. That's always a welcome. It's not mandatory, of course, but it's welcome. And hope to see you guys next time on another episode and another model, or another fleet store video, whatever it is. Thank you guys. Bye-bye.
