The E-100 project was commissioned in order to standardize parts. It was to be built in classes of varying sizes to replace existing vehicles. Different types were designated a number indicating their weight in tons: E 10, E 25, E 50 (Panther replacement), E 75 (Tiger replacement) and E 100. Of these only the E-100 project was actually started. Construction of the E-100 prototype proceeded slowly at Henschel's test plant after Hitler's order to cease work on super-heavy tanks, and at the end of the war only the bare hull and suspension were completed.

Dragon's 1:72 scale E-100 Super Heavy Tank is constructed almost entirely from plastic for the finest possible detail, with a discreet, internally-mounted weight included to give the model its heft. Close scrutiny of this model reveals fine details such as thick, interlocking armor plates with simulated welding torch cuts, a separately-attached muzzle break at the end of the elevating 170mm cannon, which is surrounded by gas vents, and interlaced road wheels featuring individually visible rivets and bolts. Components of the Belleville washer coil spring suspension system—such as leaver arms and coiled springs—are clearly visible on the underside of the model.
