jcorley Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Fellow TreadHeads, Looks like we might see something that is not a Tank, paper-panzer, or German!!!! http://www.modelarmour.com/index.php?optio...s&Itemid=58 Don't worry. It'll never sell and they'll abandon the RA market. Actually, Dragon has discovered there is quite a good market for Artillery. Rumor has it they are on Pelileu looking at a 200mm IJA field gun emplacement. I, for one, would love to see a serious of the US Rail Guns to complement the German ones. A 14/45 railway gun in France in WW1... I'd love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Aldrich Posted October 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 James, You could fill a small book with stuff I would love to see manufacturers do in the armor arena that will never happen. Thank goodness for Legend and others!!! Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesWalden Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 A Coast Artillery disappearing 10" gun and emplacement would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Aldrich Posted October 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Make for a NICE diorama in 1/72 scale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRatzenberger Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Hopefully they'll do a FAT (or two) to go with it .... Perhaps, just perhaps, they (& the modellers) have run out of interest in more German junk .... between Bronco & Vulcan, we've recently got the 2-pdr, Bofors, and 17-pdr .... some emphasis on Allied vehicles would be nice also ....

Mark Aldrich Posted October 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 (edited) I was impressed that Master Box is doing a 1/35 Civil Wars Series. Can't wait or the others. Edited October 14, 2010 by Mark Aldrich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

802chrisg Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Looks like the old Tamiya kit. Does anyone know what is in this kit yet. PE maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Aldrich Posted October 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 John, The big one was that it wasn't a PAPER PANZER. It may not be anything I MUST HAVE but it sure beats seeing a "can we really place a 203mm gun on a Tiger II chassis"? kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMadKlingon Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Yawn...Might be cool if they included the tractor in the background. I'll pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickC5 Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Yawn...Might be cool if they included the tractor in the background. I'll pass. Yeah, I agree--without the tractor, it's only 1/2 a kit. If Dragon's going to start producing WWII Brit stuff, they need to give us the whole enchilada, not just a bite or two.

Mark Deliduka Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Yeah, it's about time you guys got something like that. I've had that whole set (yes, including the tractor) in my scale completed on my shelf for at least a decade and a half; maybe two. Congrats guys. I can't wait to see someone actually build this one.

Mark Aldrich Posted October 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 I have to agree the Tractor would be nice and knowing Dragon, it isn't far down the pipe line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Dragon's going to start producing WWII Brit stuff, they need to give us the whole enchilada, not just a bite or two. IMHO, it's OK to kit the arty and prime movers separately ... sometimes I do firing, sometimes traveling ... some can be used elsewhere, etc .... Just produce them !!!

It's not a rumor, Jim, although it IS an Imperial Japanese Navy Type 2 (Ka-Mi) Amphibious Tank: http://www.dragon-models.com/html/peleliu_index.html Edited October 15, 2010 by WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
