The Maus never reached the battlefield. Only two prototypes were ever completed, and neither fired a shot in anger. Yet it remains one of the most recognisable vehicles of the Second World War — the largest tank ever built, a machine so heavy it could barely cross a bridge under its own weight.
This micro-scale brass casting captures that unmistakable silhouette: the vast, flat hull, the oversized turret, the sheer improbable bulk of it — rendered at 28mm long and just 6.5 grams. It fits on a fingertip, but the proportions are immediately readable to anyone who knows the vehicle.
For WWII diorama builders, collectors of rare or prototype German armour, or paint-your-own hobbyists looking for something genuinely unusual — this is a piece with history behind it. Position it alone on a base, or set it among other late-war German armour for a “what-if” display that never quite was.

Caring for Your Brass
Brass develops a natural patina over time — a sign of age and character, not damage. To keep the original shine, wipe occasionally with a soft dry cloth. For a deeper clean, a small amount of brass polish or a paste of lemon juice and baking soda works well. Avoid prolonged moisture or harsh chemicals. The more it’s handled, the warmer its glow becomes.
A small amount of blu-tack or double-sided tape can help it sit perfectly on your shelf.
Each piece is individually cast, so minor variations may occur.
