I just saw this posted at Dragon USA
Huey

It's Marked as Vietnam series and in 1/35th. Does this mean new Pattons, M113's and maybe that Ontos?

Looks awesome. Hopefully it is more than just the Panda kit with some updates, but that would be welcome as well. The PE and decal options look great too. Wonder how the crew will be, probably their Vietnam Helo crew set. Hopefully it will have 2 M23 door gun mounts.

Dragon has also announced a UH-1N in 1/35, but it was suspected to just be a re-boxing of the Panda UH-1N. Panda is somehow related to Dragon anyways. We shall see.

I knew Gino's eyes would bug out as he saw this.

Heck, I dont even build many aircraft anymore and It looks like an interesting build to me.
