Dragon 105mm howitzer
Posted by gawga on Monday, February 7, 2011 4:23 PM

Is Dragons 105mm howitzer DML 6499 not available/ never released/ out of production?  I have been trying for months to find it and no suppliers ever have it in stock.  What's the story?  I cannot find any source online for the model - they all say "out of stock" and have done so for many months.

I've been trying to locate one too.  I've been out of luck so far, but a new release of the gun seems to be on its way in March: Great Models.  The old boxing might have been fazed out.  Of course, if it's the specific version, or figures you're looking for, than I might just be wasting your time!

In Progress:

Revell F-15I

Accurate Miniatures A-36

I am afraid our friend Redleg12 has brought them all.   Have you tried this one?  Great Models.  It seems to have those in stock but it is hard to tell if they really do.

I checked eBay a minute ago and there were plenty listed.  Prices vary from $19 to $33.  Just type in 'Dragon 6499'.
