Unfortunately, most of the coverage of Dragon's releases concentrates on their 1/35th scale subjects. This is a pity as their 1/72nd scale releases are arguably more interesting with the breadth of subjects they cover. Here's an overview of what's being released now and what's coming in the next few months.

7377 - Kfz.70 6x4 Personnel Carrier + 3.7cm PaK 35/36

Personally speaking, those LVTs are the pick of a pretty interesting bunch of releases. What is a little disappointing is that there is still no sign of figure sets in this scale?
