DD104SL Arrives! (1 Viewer)

[Njja]

Well my DD104SL finally arrived, and it is a very impressive vehicle! It is very

securely packed with a broad wire tie and extra padding! It arrived in perfect

condition and you will be impressed with its size and weight!

It came with a warning not to grab or put to much pressure on the spare

tire, and I would suggest being careful and picking it up with both hands!

That being said it is very well made, and really feels solid! Figures are very

nice, plan a large spot for this one its a Monster!

Here are some pictures, I would love to see some from other collectors!

This certainly is one impressive vehicle! I would love to see a couple of

photos of Andy's Original drawings or Mock Ups of this Vehicle! It would be

a lot of fun to find our how he decided to produce this terrific vehcile!

Here's a couple of parting shots!

I wonder if anyone will ever do the entire Dragon Wagon. I tried to talk Rick (Figarti) into it a long time ago, but I guess he didn't like the idea. If Andy could just do the flatbed trailer section we would have ourselves the entire Dragon Wagon. I think it would be awesome. Alex

I received mine today also and man-oh-man! am I a happy camper. As the most vocal advocate for the DRAGON WAGON and THE BEDFORD LORRY (remember the many posts that had those bold capitalized words?) I must now be the most vocal advocate for a big THANK YOU ANDY AND THE MANY PEOPLE AT KING & COUNTRY.

On a slightly different model, everyone should take a very long and serious look at BBA29, the GI Drinking a Cup of Coffee. That guy looks almost real. I have begun to think of it as my favorite figure. I have him and the new BBA's in a display with the damaged sherman and the new dragon wagon.

And yes, Andy please produce the trailer for the dragon wagon.

Again, THANK YOU ANDY AND THE MANY PEOPLE AT KING & COUNTRY.

The driver sitting in the cab is fixed in place, the fellow in the turret by the

50 Cal is removable. You really need to plan some extra space for this piece!

I think Andy is on a Roll with his new releases, I am also looking forward to

receiving the new Komet when it comes out!

The new releases just keep getting better and better!

I have an entire Dragon Wagon but wrong scale, made by Verem (Sp?), very cool metal set, I want to say it is 1/43. Anybody ever heard of it, I remember it to not be cheap, I will have to dig it out for a picture.

Tom, I think you may be referring to the Verem/Solido French Berliet Tank Transporter in 1/50 scale as it does look a bit like a Dragon Wagon.

Got my 2 M26 ARV the other day. Awesome! The other set kinda sagged in the middle making the front cab point slightl upwards. It must have been the plastic tie holding the rear in place. It was to tight and in that position for a long time it sort of "deformed" it (like a tooth brace, if you will). My dealer will be replacing it.

[Jagdpanther]

Yes your rite about the size it took up space alright.

I see that treefrog has this vehicle on the retired list already!

 

[binder001]

That is one SHARP looking truck. I wish I had the bucks available - I'd snap one up in a hurry!

Every SL Edition is listed as retired as TF, like any other dealer, has its own allowance.

 

[Njja]

I believe because of the price it will be around for awhile, but I would shift

some plans around and make a point of picking one up if you like it. Its really

a wonderful piece to build a diorama, or display case around!

When you look at some of the early polystone vehicles, its amazing how far

the process has come!

 

[jazzeum]

Very nice pictures, John, and nice looking vehicle. Can't imagine that K & C wouldn't do a trailer.

 

[Jagdpanther]

Are you gonna use yours in a diorama NJJA? Im thinking of something for mine.

I thought Andy said a trailor was forthcoming at OTSN. Any one else remember that?
I thought he commented on how long the whole set up would be.
