3/5
Of some value to a novice but of little informative value to anyone with intermediate knowledge of these vehicles
by Yoda (Hadera, Israel)
This DVD has video on three of Germany's largest tanks, the Tiger, King Tiger and Sturmtiger. The footage dedicated to each is roughly in line with what actual production was of each vehicle during WWII (i.e., about 65% dedicated to Tiger, 30% to King Tiger and 5% to Sturmtiger). The footage of Tigers and King Tigers is not particularly impressive if one has seen many photos of these in other sources (i.e., Osprey or Schiller books on these vehicles). The few seconds of Sturmtiger footage, however, is as it is the only known footage (still or film) of this vehicle in combat.
In terms of information, the dvd contains much less than one would find in any Osprey or Shiller book on the subject. If one has knowledge beyond that of a novice this dvd would have no real value (at least in terms of new information) on the vehicles. However, for someone who has no knowledge it would provide an interesting introduction to the subject (albeit only touching on it).
5/5
Excellent video in an excellent series.
by JAG 2.0 (IN United States)
I own this video that was originally marketed under another title but the content is the same. I consider it an excellent documentary of the Tiger I and II. Yes, some of the archival footage is a little scratchy, but it is real combat footage and includes rare scenes of Tigers in combat showing their employment in battle. It contains little-covered topics such as recovery of damaged Tigers. I feel it is far preferable to the History Channel stuff with the terrible reenactments using fake Tigers (In one instance, they have a Tiger turret mounted on a T-34 hull!). The amount of authentic archival footage alone is worth the price.
3/5
For the price, worth it
by R. LaRusso (New Milford, CT United States)
As many have commented before on other movies in this series, the information and footage isn't new. I have almost the entire series of tank movies. These DVD's are mostly (I stress mostly!) accurate. The footage isn't the greatest and the narrator might put you to sleep - sometimes he sounds like he is falling asleep himself, and often they reuse the same footage more than once in the movie.
But, if you love WW2 German tanks and planes, it's worth checking out the whole series. If you're a hardcore tank fan like I am, you might be a little disappointed.
But, the price is reasonable, and you might still learn something new.
3/5
This DVD is the previously released Chronos Videotape
by Kevon Huntley (Southington, CT United States)
Chronos of the UK released this documentary on Videotape a number of years ago. This DVD is that same documentary. Because this documentary consists of old Black & White German and newsreel footage the quality is not the best. Therefore you may ask yourself if having a DVD is necessary. Since the footage is of old scratchy film, having a VHS tape is just as good as the DVD. It has not been remastered. The documentary itself is good considering the source material. The British Voiceover is pretty dry but informative. This is one of the best documetaries available with Tiger footage, it is just deceiving to market this as a fresh product. - KH in Southington, CT

The history of this legendary tank is told with particular emphasis placed on combat footage of the Tiger in action, as well as footage of the Ferdinand/Elefant on the Eastern front and the Sturmtiger in action in the Warsaw Uprising of 1944.
