Re: Dragon B-17

Perhaps it is a typo but note the release date- December 2007

Re: Dragon B-17

Where did this come from? Man, I also wish Draggin would make it a 1/72nd release too....it would give Corgi a milk-run for it's money.

Re: Dragon B-17

The release date now says January 2007....I'll have to see some photos of the real deal before I get too excited...The plexiglass nose piece in the drawing looks more like it came from an 'E' rather than an 'F'...Hope they get that straight....Yes, I know...I'm rivet counting based upon a drawing...

I really like their 1/144th B-29 Enola Gay, so I'm hopeful...

Re: Dragon B-17

Hey, I wonder if it would have a sliding canopy?

Re: Dragon B-17

Sounds nice, but I wish it was 1/72

Yes, I would agree! 1/72 scale is the most popular scale I think.

Hey guys, actually the very early F models had a different nose. One with a good deal of frame work. I am not sure about this specific aircraft though.
 

I can take umbrage, I can take the cake, I can take the A-Train, I can take two and call me in the morning, but I cannot take this sitting down. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take five.

Pick up one of this: and you can play-pretend you're the Me 262 driver shooting down a B-17 bomber (sic)!
