Welcome to this review of the Cobi World of Tanks IS 7 Review of set 3038.
I recently got into buying the super heavy tanks made by Cobi. These include the infamous Panzer Maus and the Jagdpanzer E100.
These tanks are huge and make the heavy tank models like the Tiger 2 and Ferdinand’s look puny by comparison!
The unique Cobi tank track system as well as their cool and historically accurate designs make these really great functional toys and collector items.

Soviet IS 7 Tank
The Soviet IS 7 was a prototype of a heavy tank design considered at the time to have been one of the most advanced in the world.
The tank weighed 68 tons and was armed with a massive 130mm main gun. The tank also featured the sloping armor that was common in Soviet tank designs.
The IS 7’s armor was designed to be able to withstand a hit from the infamous Jagdtiger.
Cobi World of Tanks IS 7
The Cobi IS 7 Tank set 3038 comes with 650 pieces and 1 mini figure. It also has some bonus codes for World of Tanks.
The tank itself is quite large, measuring 37.5 cm long (14.8 inches), 12 cm wide (4.7 inches), and 12 cm high (4.7 inches).
Cobi World of Tanks IS 7 Features
This is another monster super heavy tank made by Cobi. It is absolutely massive in comparison to other large Cobi models like the Jagdtiger.
The tank has a really cool turret design that fully rotates 360 degrees. The turret is huge and features 2 round hatches at the front and one large square hatch at the rear. There is also a large machine gun.
The main gun is huge, similar to the Panzer Maus and Jagdpanzer E 100. It moves up and down.
There is an engine hatch on the rear deck of the tank that opens to reveal 2 custom Cobi engines.
There is no front driver hatch. The design of the front is similar to the Cobi IS 3 tank.
Finally, the custom Cobi designed tank tracks system is why I love these tanks so much. The tracks work perfectly on carpet and on hard surfaces. The weight of the tank definitely helps with the rolling of the wheels and tracks. While the tracks are not the extra wide ones used on the Maus, they are solid and work well.
Overall this is an awesome tank that will certainly bulk up my Soviet tank collection.
