I need help with my build
Posted by Seb.TT on Tuesday, July 20, 2021 5:33 PM

Hello everyone I'm new here, i just wanted to ask if anyone knows of a way for me to get my hands onto a few spare parts for my model. I am right now building a dragon 1/35 Tiger 1 kit however whilst mounting the towing cable a few small parts got thrown to different parts of my room and I can't find them, I wanted to know if i could somehow get in touch with Dragon and ask for a new sprue, I tried their email and their phone number on their website but it didnt work. Please any help would be needed

What are the parts that you are missing?

Are they something that can be made by hand?  In the past I've had to make lost parts, in most cases it isn't that hard and with armor they can sometimes be covered with cammo, mud, and such.  In most cases people will never notice.  We had to do this kind of thing all the time back before resin replacements and P.E.

Just yesterday I had a box of spare parts fall and eventually I used a large sticky roller on a mop sized handle to catch parts that I didn't see.  I would roll it all over the floor and pick off the parts.  Also check shelves, tops of containers and things to see if they landed there or inside a box.  It couldn't hurt.

What parts are you missing?  I might be able to replace them.
