Draggin' F-14 VF-41 Black Aces needs to be on that list too.

Re: Dragon Cancellations

I hear that skunky has them in his back yard in some old car and is holding on to them in hopes of them making some money down the road

Re: Dragon Cancellations

These 2 may be hard to find, but they are out there:
DRR60122--Tiger 1, Late Production, 1/sPzAbt 102, Normandy 1944.
DRR60131--Tiger I (Late Production) - Sd.Kfz. 181, Villers Bocage 1944

I have the 60122 (pictures), and I have seen the 60131 on e-bay as it's the pair of Wittman's Tiger.

Thanks,
Cary

Re: Dragon Cancellations

Just received that email too. The only one I really wanted out of the list was DRW50073--Me 109G-6, 9./JG 27, Vienna, Austria, March 1944. Bummer, maybe it will come out at a way latter date.

Re: Dragon Cancellations

Well that is no surprise to see "The Lord Is My Sheperd" P-51 on that hit list.....
I gave up on that one a long time ago.

Now I have to give up my USMC Hornet hopes.
 

Don't do what BDE tells you to do. Do what BDE would want you to do.

Smile Re: Dragon Cancellations

Give me a break! DRW50059 "The Lord is My Sheperd" was tanked somewhere around 4 B.C. Who the hell is kidding whom here. I pulled a good April Fools' joke in 2007, but that was meant to be a joke. Seems to me that Dragon Wings has lost their buzz and is pulling back from the marketplace. Too bad, really, since I liked their issues, especially the P-51s, and, disregarding the fiddy bits, they produced some nice issues. Let's hope they stick with it-we need all the quality die cast makers we can find.

Re: Dragon Cancellations

DRW50026--F/A-18A/C Hornet, CF-188 Canadian Air Force.

That one's probably the record. Lowest item number, and one of the initially announced members of the entire DW line, not just among Hornets. Though I think the VMFA-232 release is even earlier--was that one cancelled before? I think it's been 5 years or so...
