Re: Dragon Armor New Release Wishlist

They would be very small if rendered in Dragon's customary 1:72nd scale. Assuming that this is the scale we are talking about, I'd opt for something a bit larger, like an M-60. Since Dragon appears fixated on German and U.S. tanks I doubt this company would even consider a Char B, Type-97, Crusader, Valentine, Merkva, Swedish S Tank, or a lot of other prime collector's choices.

Shame because some of the ones you listed are the ones that would be at the top of my list.

Re: Dragon Armor New Release Wishlist

In my wildest dreams...An M18 "Hellcat"...'shinhoto' chi-ha.

Realistically, I hope they make a Sherman “Jumbo”. I know…ANOTHER Sherman, but this is one variant they need to release. (At least before releasing all the rest of them…Hey, Shermaholics need our fix…) I especially crave a couple 76mm up-gunned ones.

Speaking of Shermans (and how Dragon is cranking them out), I could actually use some repaints. I’d love to see them go back to their first Sherman release, the M4A3(76)w VVSS, and give us more paint schemes. That was a cool model, and two is just not enough for me. (All the usual suspects would look sweet: Abram’s Thunderbolt…a whitewashed machine…12th AD’s distinctive white markings over black disruptive bands…14th AD’s multi-tone camo...)

Re: Dragon Armor New Release Wishlist

I'd like to see a M1A1 or M1A2 with a TUSK. C'mon, they already know how to make the Abrams and they already have a ERA kit for the Bradley. It just makes common sense for me to spend my money on several of these.
 

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

Re: Dragon Armor New Release Wishlist

I'd really like to see the Marder series done. Also a nice range of early war French, Brit, and Italian stuff. I'm also still waiting for that JS2!

I'm with you on this.

Would like to see Valentines, Matildas & Crusaders in 1:72 too.
A Chieftain & LeClerc would also be fine additions.

Re: Dragon Armor New Release Wishlist

For the M 10 and Achilles check out Hobby Master's offerings in 1.72. I am aware that the 'weathering' is minimal, but the modelling is superb........Hobby Master will fill in the gaps and hit your wish list sooner than Dragon will !
