Two new releases from Dragon Models have been announced.
Like the proverbial 800 -pound gorillas, these two releases were bound to come...
The first of these is:
DRA6466 - Sd.Kfz.7 8t Half-Track
The second is:
DRA6475 - Pz.Sf1.1Vb. 10.5cm le.F.H.18/1 Sd.Kfz.165/1 Ausf.A
No release dates , nor any further informarion has been provided....
I won't make any comment on the second release as it's a vehicle I know little about, so i'll limit my comments to the 8-tonner.
If this is planned (and we've no way of knowing at the moment) to be the LATE version (unlike Trumpeter's EARLY version) then both releases will complement each other perfectly and both companies will do well out of the releases - many modelers will genuinely be tempted to buy both. However, if both versions are the same, then it's going to be considerably less useful for the buyer and its doubtful how beneficial it'll be for either party.
Time will tell...
