Just saw on dragonusaonline dot com that they are reboxing the Cyber Hobby limited edition "Operation Seelowe" Pz. III CH# 6717) in a regular Dragon box, #6877.

Once again they show they don't understand what limited means, but then again I don't consider anything made in a Chinese factory to be limited in quantity if there's the possibility of making a dollar somewhere.
Regardless, I found an original on ebay for less than the retail on this one and no DS tracks to worry about.

Looks like Dragon is releasing another repop

Lately dragon is not acting like it wants to remain a premier model brand anymore. It just wants to milk its existing set of molds for all they are worth, while investing in an absolutely minimum amount of new research or new molds.
I wouldn't be surprised if in 2-3 years, dragon would close up shop and sell its molds to some other brand.

Not to mention the low quality of their Black Plague line (black label)

They won't be making re-pops of those!
They will be called re-poops instead ....
