Just got em and they look. Dragon B-17 New

Hello all, well I know I read on here someone blasting the Dragon B-17 planes, but I found a guy on Ebay selling them for 24.98 and shipping for two was under $10.00, I got em today and I dont know what all the fuss is. They look great to me, no ugly gaps or seams, Much nicer than my older Corgi 1/144 B-17's , they seem to have a lot more little details than the Corgis as I remember and I think the Corgis back then were around $40.00 each.

Got the Flak Eater and the Silver Lady.

Just thought I would make my compliment on here.

BIGGIE ...Can you post pictures of the silver lady B-17 ?....I want to see if they re-did the nose area.

Yes, please! Many here feel Dragon's B-17F effort was subpar, but I think you're among the first to see the new B-17G. I've been waiting for its release with fingers crossed that Dragon will redeem itself with the G model.
 

Nrrrm! Whoosh! Rat-tat-tat!
--sounds of a happy diecast collector

I'm a firm believer that if you can't say anything good about something then rip it apart!

but I really would like to see the pics of the new B-17 as well....Sometimes Draggin' does take the hint (SuperHornet)...

Why don't you throw one at your boss? Show him what air power is really all about!
