Hi,
Not only did Dragon redesign its web site but it appears they have a new limited edition Messerschmitt flown by Heinz Bar in the offing. Notice that it comes with a 1:72 scale Kubelwagen which means you can probably expect to see the Kubelwagen added to their Dragon Armor line in the not-too-distant future.

Cool looking diorama, but isn't this airplane model widely available from Dragon Wings at a price of $20?
The Gerhard Barkhorn FW109D-9 is in the same dilema.
To me, Cyber Hobby's P-47D Kansas Tornado seems like the best bet for collectors, because Dragon nor any other manufacturer offers this plane at 1:72 or any other scale.

Hey, we can add this to the list

I really like the Limited Edition stuff that Cyber-Hobby has put out. However, I wish they would release a little more, as the list is getting really long now:
1. 1/72 King Tiger-Ritter
2. T-34/76 mod 1941 : Spring 1942
3. Tiger Ace in Operation "Zitadelle" - Tiger I (Early Production)
4. Tiger Ace & Glory
5. T-34/76 mod 1941 : Autumn 1942
6. Tiger I : schwere Panzer-Abteilung 101
7. Super-Heavy Tank : Maus
8. Super-Heavy Tank : E-100
9. 1/144 Leopold (Museum Version)
10. 1/144 Leopold (Winter Version)
11. Heinz Bar : Me 109E-3 "Battle of Britain"

Has anyone heard when we are going to start seeing some of this?
Eric

A 1/72 die cast Kubel would be most welcome. :D
Still, with this being a special piece, you would think Dragon would go out on a limb with a swastika on the tail.

I would imagine that 1/72 Kubels or Jeeps could be issued in the same format as the Can.Do sets.
