Hi all,
While browsing on HLJ website, it seems Dragon will have a new Tiger I out in December. From the description or lack of it rather, it seems this is another DAK Tiger, as it is called German Army Tiger I Africa Tiger. The kit number is 6328 on HLJ site.
This comes a few months after their release in September of another Tiger I DAK kit# 6608.
And altogether this would be the the fourth Tiger I this year.
It looks like Dragon is increasing their Tiger DAK offering.

Just by model kit item number count, Dragon has exceeded actual wartime production levels.

It's too early to say exactly what 6328 will be. I will just point out that, because of major parts being changed, you can't easily cover all the 501 battalion Tigers with a single kit. The Rye Field kit, the upcoming Dragon 6608 and the legendary Cyber Hobby 6286 covered only the first 7 of the 20 Tigers.
