Just wondering if anyone has heard when we will see the next Jagdpanther, Panther F, E-100, and T-34. I believe most, if not all these tanks are due this month. I wish that they would finally get around to the Stugs, nashorn, and hummel; as these tanks are new and not repaints.

Dragon Armor what is hitting the stores next?

Hi,
You may have to wait a wee bit longer. Up next, according to Dragon, is the Panther F and a Ferdinand, followed by one of the E-100s at the tail end of the month. Looks like everything else slipped again.

Jagdpanthers
Hi,
I agree. Both of the new Jagdpanthers with zimmerit looks quite nice. I'm thinking that Dragon may be holding back on some of the eagerly awaited products (StuGs, Hummel, Nashorn, T-34s, etc.) so they can show them at the upcoming Dragon Expo in Atlanta. That, or they're just running into the usual production delays. Part of the problem may have to do with numbers. As the line gets more and more popular, they have to step up production. This, in turn, slows the release of other products in the piepline. As a result, they either have to add more labor, or increase capacity.
Personally, I'm already a little concerned about the fourth quarter and the potential delays in product shipments. Last year, WalMart created some severe problems at west coast ports of entry because they brought in their fourth quarter products earlier than usual. This forced everyone else to take a back seat and wait a bit longer. The same thing could happen this year, especially if they're more of a force in the toy industry now that Toys R Us has been sold.

Re: Jagdpanthers
QFT (quoted for truth) however......with other companies (Fov) entering the 72nd scale arena, they may help fill the void, so we'll be able to get our "fix"..lol? Not to mention I'll be too busy still drooling over the FOV 1:16 KT that time won't matter to melightning2000 wrote:Hi,
