Regarding Dragaon's pre-built 1/35 display models... does anyone know if Dragon is going to release subjects beyond what's available now? For example, a late war Tiger II without zimmerit, or the Panzer IV family, or Allied subjects?

Anyone know?

They did tonnes of 1/72 MAUS's, if only they would do the same for their 1/35 MAUS. Even the 1:32 guys would cross over for that monster!

It would be great to see Dragon do some more releases in 1/35.

I believe they have done the Tiger, Panther, King Tiger, and Elefant, so still lots of important types that they haven't done, and that is just the Germans.

Shame to hear that, AG.

I picked up three of the 1/35 Tigers, and three 1/35 Panthers from you a few years ago, and was very impressed with them. And know of others that hold these in high regard, and would like to see more of these from Dragon.

Thanks guys. I guess if 1/35 pre-builts were profitable they would continue them. I love the models they did release, Dragon set a standard with them and I'd have loved more. Tamiya's Masterwork line barely makes it to USA shops and that leaves us with few large scale, high-quality options.

Tamiya is expensive if you can find them. The same applies to Minichamps. They're getting really hard to find and they are too pristine. I like a little weathering.
