I think, but am not sure, that is one of the Dragon 1/18 scale figures - Wiking Division.

Yeah - I missed the 7 inch part, that must be a typo.

100% for sure it's a 1/18 dragon figure. 4 inches tall, not 7.

Dragon figs are pretty easy to find if you look hard enough, and for cheap too. The line never took off and Dragon made plenty of every wave. They're good dio filler and the kneeling guys are outright rockin' with a mortar or piece of artillery.

if you want an online place that has a ton of them try the toy hq in Denton, the are on ebay under Toy HQ and are otherwise known as Admiral Toys (shh)
but that's where i bought this one, they have a small store front on their warehouse, which you can also shop the warehouse, they must have had over 600 1:18 me 262 from admiral in there a year ago waiting to go out

Not to mention all the great weapons and acc's. Mp40's with removable clips to name one cool feature. The Dragon figs do fit in quite nicely beside our beloved XD, however the reasaon I believe that the line didn't take off is because of the lack of articulation. I have about 30 of the "action 18" line and I love em!

I think another reason is just figuring (pun) out all the different products dragon offers. They have so many different lines and sizes. I'm not complaining, not by a long shot. But for instance , I just started modeling 1:35 scale again and trying to figure out the difference between Dragon kits, Dragon smart kit, dragon cyber hobby and the commander, premium and good lord i think 3 others like admiral kits is bad enough.
They really need to separate there modeling products from their die cast and /or ready-made or figures. It can be confusing.
It's like 21st century back like 5 or 6 years ago when i was trying to figure out 32x from cold steel etc.
naming the lines helps but when they don't explain it.....then you had motorworks come in mixing unimax and 21st C in same box art
even fov has enthusiast and action series. I think Dragon has at least 6-10 different grades of model kits and they all seem to price similar.
