Is Dragon's M2A4 Bradley worth getting?

Which camo is better? The desert Iraqi camo or the European camo(green)?

I started collecting Dragon armor quite a while back but i stopped since I found that building Tank model is not difficult and it results in more satisfaction due to the big scale(1/35) and the attention to detail. The 1/35 scale is perfect for showcase than the very small 1/72 scale

But yesterday i saw a long gone( ti thought so) Bradley and was tempted to buy one. about US$11.

So are they worth getting or should i keep my money to buy another kit(thinkin abt buying and building a Merkava)
I'd like to hear comments from owners of the Dragon's Bradley...Thx

Re: Is Dragon's M2A4 Bradley worth getting?

I recommend both, roh. European Woodland camo or desert tan, Dragon renders both with consummate skill. If you have the chance to purchase a Bradley finished in either scheme, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Better yet, buy both.

Personally, I prefer desert tan.
 

It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

I also agree Gort. I have 2 woodland camo Bradleys and 2 desert camo Bradleys. They have excellent detail. I'd recommend one of the newest Dragon Bradleys with the ERA.

For plastic kit, I'd recommend the Revell Merkava III. I finished mine last week. It was straightforward and easy.

I have two desert tan Dragon Bradley AFVs, one with ERA - both are exceptional and well worth acquiring

Re: Is Dragon's M2A4 Bradley worth getting?

Got to save money man. Dragon has released quite a number of models that I've not caught up with them.

In my consideration list are:
1. M2A4 Bradley(Euro/Desert camo?)
2. Sherman(This really represents US ground force during WWII)-Wanting a Firefly but Dragon's German fetish prevent me from buying.
3. T-34(Wanting the T34-85 but what's up with Dragon's fetish for Werchmacht/Nazi. why does it have to be a captured tank?)

Dragon makes both a Firefly and T-34/85 and neither are captured versions (though they do make those too).
