Small Scale Military Headquarters

Yeah, can you send us some pics of that tank? I haven't seen that one.

Wow that is sweet Mr. Football, where'd you find that pic? Is that a modified minichamps or are they going for the weathered look now?

Have any of you guys tried modifying the Dragon planes by putting pilot figures in the cockpits? Or is that even a possibility with them being pre-built? Just curious.

That new E-100 does look cool even if it never made it to the battlefield. Interesting how the German Army, in particular, Hitler ordered bigger, heavier and slower tanks in hopes to stop the Allies. Makes you wonder what went through his head in thinking these large, gas guzzling monsters would tur...

Thanks guys, I think I'm going to order a couple, I really like the looks of the P-47s too! I wonder if they ever might venture into some 1/72 bombers like a B-25 or B-17.

Thanks smh, that clears up my question for me. My research was only limited to some websites and all the pics had the zim KTs with cables. I agree having the mount points would help for accuracy, but not for ease of production on Dragon's end. Not a big deal to me, just saw the difference and it pea...

Thanks for the input smh_1021, are there any particular models that stand out (like the zero you mentioned)?

Hello again all, as I mentioned in one of my first posts, I'm still pretty new to the collecting world. I currently collect 1/72 WWII figures and armor and have been looking at getting into some aircraft. I've seen pics of the the Dragon Warbird line and it looks great. I would like some of your inp...

That's good to know smh_1021, I hadn't really looked at the White Tiger closely, I was just curious as to why Dragon left off the cables, etc., on their newest zimmerit KT tanks (PzAbt 506 and PzAbt 101). I guess I'm wondering if these are accurate representations of some KTs with zim that didn't ha...

Thanks for the welcome hworth, from what I can see on the pics of the new KTs they have absolutley nothing on the hull sides...and I wasn't aware that the late tiger 1s were supposed to have track links on the turrent...thanks for the info, I still have a lot to learn about German armor! I wonder wh...

I hear ya Sgt Stryker, I would like to see more metal in the newer Dragon releases, and I think the zimmerit Dragons are pretty much all plastic, I guess what hooks me is the paint jobs on them, they are very well done and look great on the shelf! Although I do like the "heft" of my mostly metal Mat...

Hello all, I'm new to the board but have been lurking for awhile. This forum is great, the knowledge you guys have is amazing! Anytime I have a question I've been able to find a thread that helps or a link. Glad to be here. I'm fairly new to the collecting world, been collecting 1/72 scale WWII figu...
