Some cool little Dragon news!

Posted by J-Hulk on Sunday, December 14, 2003 9:09 AM

The new issue of Armour Modelling is carrying an ad for Dragon's teensy 1/144 Panzer Korp series, which come two in a box for 500 yen (about $4.50 USD).
The lineup:
Sturmtiger and Bergetiger
Maus and Tiger I (early)
E-100 and Tiger I (mid)
38(t) and Pzr IV D

They really look good, too.
By the way, these are kits, not pre-builts.

Now my big 1/35 E-100 can have it's own Mini-E! Big Smile [:D]

Thanks to our man in Japan.
Frosty and Duke will be in line I'm sure for these.

I'm curious to see what these little guys look like.

How many parts to a kit? Like five? Hull, turret, barrel, left track (one piece) and right track. Oh yeah a little decal sheet! Just think of a 'group build' with these tanks!

Thanks Brian,

Alot of detail on such a small frame. Whoever did their marketing pics did some nice paint. Kind of strikes me that maybe they're going after the wargaming market.

Very nicely detailed little critters. They don't take much shelf space either.

Ditto on the thanx to Buraian-sama ! Domo Arigato, sensei !!
no doubt about me wanting these little babies 4 the shelf.. if they look as nice as the Abrams & King Tiger i've got already, they're must-haves 4 me ( & they might even work in some forced perspective in a diorama !)

Now you can pose your 1/35 crew figures displaying large scale models of their tanks... you know, made in their off duty hours... or maybe a prototype model on a design table...
Just one thing missing. Shermans, Stuarts and TD's. Soon I'd guess!
