I am buildind dragons M1A1 HA for the GB and it was released last year and it is the same kit i bought in 1995 with the exception of new parts to build an A2. I too had doubts but it is turning out to be one hell of a kit

Thanks for the compliments, as for the civilian vehicles, they all started life as 1/32 scale snap models. Most from Monogram. Unfortunately, they are no longer available.

As for the Dragon Abrams, I didn't really experience any other problems with it.

Heavyarty! that sure is one big beautifull dio man!Evil [}:)]

I like your job very much! thanks for answer. btw I really wonder where did you get all the civilian vihechles (are they 1:35???). The only fule truck I've seen is the one made by italeri that everybody knows of...

Anyway, about the abramas, I agree that it looks a wonderfull kit and I have built a bunch o'tanks to gain a bit of experience to tell, though it is one of thier 'older' kits (1992) and sure dragon have come a long way since then. My point is that it may be a bit, well, "slopy" here and there in fitting (not about detail, I think it's great) it seem to me that some parts are a bit warped, so I wonder if you guy's incountered somthing like that.
Thanks!

Dragon's Abrams kits are really good, in my opinion. The turret interior looks pretty good once completed. Take your time on the bustle rack and grunt rails. They can be a little tricky. The track takes time and care too. Overall, they come out really well. I've built quite a few and like them alot.

The Abrams in my "Highway of Death" dio is the same Dragon kit w/mine plow.


Good luck.

Hey all!!Smile [:)]

I bought this kit several years ago and stashed in my closet, I wanted my skills to improve and finally I got Pollyscale's desert storm sand.

I would like to hear any comments on this kit. I tried to dry fit the "wall" parts in the turret and it dosent seem to be promisingSad [:(] includind ejector pin marks...

Anything else to look out from? thanks Abrams expertsCool [8D]
