Re: new b 17

If it's anything like their previous B-17 offerings I'm going to try real hard not to get too wildly ecstatic about it........

Re: New B-17 from Dragon

*yawn* Heythat'sgreat.
Wake me next October, when Dragon might get around to releasing this and we can tell if it's a new, good mould or just their B-17F mould with a chin turret.
 

Nrrrm! Whoosh! Rat-tat-tat!

Re: New B-17 from Dragon

I have one of the Dragon B-17F's, and as far as I am concerned, it suffers from two major flaws. First, the outline of the nose is all wrong-- it is god-awful to be truthful. The second thing is the excessive seam where the wing joins the fuselage. If Dragon corrects those two things (and doesn't just slap on a chin turret), they might have a nice little B-17.
