pingu1 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Piccies of sub-assemblies in a Dragon advert in this month's TMMI (but nothing on Dragon's website yet). Looks to be knocking the Hase kit into a cocked hat. Cheers, Chris. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rafju Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Does anyone know if this beauty will come with separate flaps? TIA raphael Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chriss7606 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 I've got one on order at the local hobby shop and I don't know much about it lol! I can say that it comes with it's own photoetched fret. I'd like to see some sprues or a test shot myself. The absence of them, especially at the USA IPMS Nats. back in August is confusing to me. I'm hoping this will blow the Hasegawa kit out of the water. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vandy 1 vx4 Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 The Box art I have seen will have Pettie 2nd. dimond tire pattern, Engine, Filet tail. The tear drop drop tanks look to have the filler cap as a separate piece. The tail wheel and strut seam to be one piece to. The photos I have seen were from Dragon Con. of the test kit.
