Dragon Saddles Up
Since its inception, Dragon has claimed that their budget-minded Dragon Armor Value Plus range would be revisiting many of the subjects that made their award-winning line of Dragon Armor vehicles so popular. As part of this strategy, Dragon today showed off their first modern era warfighters - an M1A1 Abrams tank that saw action in Operation Iraqi Freedom as part of the 3rd Infantry Division (DRR62015) and an M1A1 that served with the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force in its march on Baghdad (DRR62016).
Attractively priced at just $16.99, their all-new battle-hardened offerings are expected to be released some time in May and will no doubt be followed by other modern era weapons platforms....[posted 4/14/2010]
Dragon Goes on Safari
From our vantage point, it looks as if the 1:72 scale collecting community will have lots to cheer about this spring. After several months of laying dormant, Dragon has announced the upcoming delivery of an initial production Tiger I tank painted in feldgrau (field grey) (DRA60405). Together with the recently spawned WarMaster series, the Unimax Wespe and German cargo truck, and the imminent launch of yet another range of 1:72 scale combat vehicles, it appears as if this diminutive regime will continue to gain added momentum into 2010 and beyond.....[posted 3/16/2010]
Dragon Takes The Wraps Off of its Latest Panzer
By all accounts, the Panzerkampfwagen IV served as the workhorse of the German Wehrmacht during Worild War II, serving on all fronts and bearing the brunt of much of the armored fighting on both the attack and the defense. With this in mind, Dragon today showed off their very first Panzer IV Ausf. F2 medium tank (DRA60088), which sports a powerful long barrel 75mm gun, the scourge of many an Allied tanker. Painted in a standard feldgrau (field grey) pattern, and bearing the insignia of the 11.Panzer Division, the all-new panzer depicts a tank then serving on the eastern front during the early portion of 1942. Expected sometime in December, we're placing a strong buy recommendation on this one, likely to be snapped up by wargamers and collectors alike by the droves.....[posted 11/12/2009]
Dragon Taps the Jagdpanther for its Next Value Plus Subject
With sales continuing to remain strong for their entire Dragon Armor Value Plus range, Dragon today indicated they would be selecting the Jagdpanther as their next Value Plus installment. Based upon a vehicle that served with sPzAbt. 653 on the western front during 1944 (DRR62011), the latest armored fighting vehicle looks every bit as good as their previous releases, and should see the light of day in October, making it a great stocking stuffer for the upcoming holiday season...[posted 9/10/2009]
Dragon Screams, "Panzer Vorwarts!"
Looking to maintain momentum and add a little spice to their new series of budget-minded armor, Dragon today announced their inaugural 1:72 scale Panther tank in their Dragon Armor Value series. Based upon a tank serving with the 1.SS Panzer Division in France during the summer of 1944 (DRR62005), their first Panther will no doubt be snapped up by collectors world over since many of their original 1:72 scale Panthers are becoming harder and harder to find and needless to say more valuable on the collector circuit. Also unveiled today was their first ever King Tiger with a Henschel turret for the Value Armor series, whose history shows it was attached to 1./s.Pz.Abt. Feldhernhalle, then deployed to defend Hungary during the closing stages of WWII (DRR62007). Both of these new vehicles carry a very attractive sticker price of just $16.99, making them ideal for wargaming, gift-giving, or just plain running amok on the carpeted battlefield...[posted 6/22/2009]
