Hi John
The one I have is "Dragon" and plastic,but it looks good and well detailed.
I am not sure that they are still available from their range but they are
available on the internet.
I have been trying to find some extra magazines but no luck yet.
their was a posting somewhere mentioning a steel kit that is available from
some where
cheers
Phil

Thanks very much for the reminder of Panzerwerk.com :D
Just had a quick look in the loose parts and there is some I found
straight off.
Returning later to look through all the loose parts list.
Cheers

Is the Dragon one articulated at all ?

Thanks Adrian,
I recognize the DZ name now.
Yes the Dragon one is fully movable and removable guns and mags if you
don't want to paint them,like I chose not to.
Radio controlling would be easy in the rotation but needs a bit of carefull thought
on the verticle,due to hiding the mechanism and fragile plastic parts.
Cheers
Phil

Hi Phil and Adrian.

Yes looking the biss now. D.Z. Toys I have that gun its fun to build but .... I think that's might b where it ends it would need a lot of work and a huge amount of filling to get it to look anything like the Dragon model ... just my opinion.
Cheers Paul. :wink:
