Has anyone built the 3 in 1 halftrack from Dragon? It looks amazing. Includers aluminum gun barrel Pe poarts and individual link tracks, all for only 30$!!! Does it fit? And is it a good kit?
Thanks, Tank.
I havent built the kit but if it is anything like dragons other new stuff then chances are it is pretty good
it looks a great kit
lots of options and spares
the reviews here http://www.perthmilitarymodelling.com/reviews/vehicles/dragon/dr6233.htm
I bought the 3-in-1 D model, and it looks great! Can’t wait to get around to it.
I have both the 3-in-1 Ausf D and the 3-in-1 Ausf C. They both look like outstanding kits with plenty of extra parts and options.
I am dieing for both of these kits! I read review comparing the AFVClub Asuf C and the ne dragon one, heres what it said (basically)
The Afv club kit is more accurate and detailed. But the Dragon kit comes with figs, and a boat load of extras. They both build into a great models, so it depends if you are really a really accurate type of builder, or just a plain, have fun builder.
I plan on getting both one day.
yeah, it’s a shipload of extras!!! you get tons of extra crates and everythign!!! it negates the need for aftermarket really!!!
I went crazy and bought three of 'em figuring a kit this good won’t be around long! Over 600 teeny pieces, I can’t wait to clear a space on my bench to start on version #1!
Heh…with that many you can build all 3 versions and still have a boatload of extra parts left over for future builds. I am looking to maybe start one of these as soon as I get finished with my Pak 40 and Willies Jeep
I unfortunately have many kits to get around to finish my phantom fw-190, mig-29, hawker hunter and then an sa-2 then the halftrack
Ive got alot on the bench too. I’ll probably build the Afv club kit first.
Dragon has made it possible to have a very interesting night battle. With their special night fighting , 251, infantry and panther it would be a neat thing to see.
Now to add that to the list of dio ideas i have…
i dont care what yall say, im dieing to get my hands on that 251 with the mounted Pak 40. OHHHH man will that thing look sweet!! i got a dio idea that it would fit right in to.
AFV club is coming out with one of those very soon.
I read the Perth review a little while ago, and all directions point to it being a very good kit. It’s flying off the shelves at my LHS. I’m on a waiting list to get mine.
I took advantage of Great Model’s sale notice this week and picked up the 3-in-1 C for $25. They also have the D for the same price. [:D]
LHs, cha. I get most of my stuff mailorder. Not that I would like to get it from the local hobby shops, but they’re not too wel stocked.
Aren’t new kits kind of like new cars. They fly off the shelf because everone wants NEW, NEW, NEW. Some even command silly ebay prices when they first come out. Hey, I’m no different, I need one too. Make mine a “D”. [:D]
I really like the way german half tracks look, plus it will be my first half track.
AFV may be coming out with one also, but this one is cheaper. and besides, i like it when you can improve on whats there
hey gringe heres areview of the dragon kit.
