Dragon 1/6th panzer II

[Abo]

Appreciate that its not our general scale but I see that Dragon have issued a panzer II and an SAS "desert raider" jeep to go with thier 1/6th scale figures. Just wondered if anyone has tried/intending to R/C the panzer II as there appears to be lashings of room inside one to experiment with. http://www.amerang.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; have them listed on thier page if anyone is interested.

Just looked on http://www.monkeydepot.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and they have a shed load of photographs of the PII plus a Horsch and Sdkfz 250! Sorry if this is old news for you guys, first time I've looked at 1/6th, like the look of some of the weapons available.

Hi the Dragon stuff is excelent . I recently got the Dragon 1/6 Scwimwagen that was £50 inc postage brand new still sealed in box from UK dealer . Dragon in dreams do a sdkfz 251 think its a D model in 1/6 but its metal so Im guessing it wont be cheep . There 250 is nice in plastic . Im thinking of scratch building a 1/6 251 D using the Rolling Thunder running gear.

Hi Abo,
Sorry but you have lost me...I followed the link but I cannot find a 1/6th scale Panzer II anywhere !
At Monkey Depot all I could find in 1/6th Axis was the Horch 'Car' but it is is 748 Dollars.....so that is way out of my league and the Panzer is bound to be more!!

Littletankman, Do you have the supplier of the Schwimwagen. Or was it a one off ebay deal. Great price. I'm looking for one of these to go with my Tiger.

Field of armor do some nice kits.


Here is a link to some Panzer II photos I took recently.

Dietrich, click on tv/film/comic then onto dragon figures page 3 its on there. Never mentioned anything about being cheap but the panzer II IS cheaper than the Horsch as that kit isn't Dragon. The dragon PII is less than £400 ($650 US, 450 euro's) which is certainly a lot cheaper than some armoured introduction to 1/6th. Check http://www.dragon-products.eu" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; which may be of more help for you in europe.

Hi John , Im sorry to say it was his last one . I had planed on posting a link untill I realised this . I can try and find his web site and post a link should he get any more . I cant afford 1?6 tanks at the mo as I got layed off . Im thinking on scratching a 251 D but the running gears in the US so import duty . I might be getting the US Jeep to as a present . Im looking for a Kubelwagen but not the DAK version . Best Ive seen is £90 in the UK . The Pz.II is a to early model for me but could mount a cannon on to it as a SPG ?
