Just wondering if anyone else has this piece and how they like it. I think it's a terrific piece with great looking crew that comes with it. A large one, but one that I really like being a heavy collector of USA D-Day/Normandy and Bulge sets and one that I've used in several different displays...

Love this piece! I bought 2 of them and modified the other one to M-25 Tank Transporter " Dragon Wagon." The M-25 Tank Transporter was a combination 6 x 6 M-26 armored heavy tank transporter/tank recovery tractor and companion 40-ton M-15 trailer introduced into US Army service in Europe in 1944–45. I modified the M-26 by folding the A-Frame and scratch-built the M-15 Trailer (1/30 scale). You could follow the thread (from 2 years ago) and step-by step construction on the " How to" section, Model & Kit building thread, search under "Enter The Dragon."

Outstanding work Noli-Poli and great photography Duke. The working crew really add to this set too. You never know Andy may produce a trailer after seeing this? :wink2:^&grin
