Unhappy Dragon P-51B Nooky Booky Canceled

Bad news guys - I have been informed that Dragons first P-51B has been put on ice

No additional information has been sent out by Dragon to date.

I wonder if their P-40 is next since the original release date was July of 2007.

Re: Dragon P-51B Nooky Booky Canceled

Sigh.

I am starting to get the impression that Dragon doesn't like aviation enthusiasts very much. First, no "The Lord is my Shepherd". Now no "Nookie Booky".

I'd be willing to be that there will be no P-40 either.

Re: Dragon P-51B Nooky Booky Canceled

Not surprising at all after it's been rumored that Draggin is getting out of the Warbirds diecast..... ( I'm not making this up, I happen to have sourced out a reliable informant
from another forum I visit )

Thats a bit of a bummer, they put out some nice looking WWII aircraft.

Re: Dragon P-51B Nooky Booky Canceled

Just the first P-51, or is the model cancelled altogether? Too bad, I'd have bought Nooky, and probably any others...

Lately, they've really been earning their name of DraGONE.

Re: Dragon P-51B Nooky Booky Canceled

That's a real bummer -- I started my 1:72 collection with Dragon, and all in all I still like Dragon models more than their competitors' birds. (OK, Hobby Master and Gemini Aces are on a par with Dragon; they just need to build up a track record.) I've been waiting for Dragon's P-40 for a year; now it looks like I'll have to settle for a Corgi or do without. At least Dragon released the B-17G before pulling out -- does anyone have Silver Lady or Flak Eater yet?
 

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

Check TFM's website. I believe he got those in stock now.

Real bummer for sure. I have a nice selection of their Bf 109Gs and Fw-190As and really like their looks. I was looking forward to possibly seeing some more, but maybe not now.
