Anyone up for sharing their impressions of building a Dragon Hetzer?
Old Dragon vs New Takom
Thoughts?
Might be a little early to compare as the Takom kits have not hit the streets. The last Dragon Hetzer I stalled on was the 2cm flak gun version and that was more the flak gun than Hetzer kit as I recall.
While I think the Dragon Hetzer kit has some accuracy issue depending on what plant your building to, the construction OOB is generally considered pretty good compared to other Dragon lines as I recall.

I can’t speak to any accuracy issues but as far as construction the Dragon kit went to gather with almost zero issue from what I can remember(aside from filling the occasional ejector pin marks and the indy links) it was several years ago when I built it. The kit boxing was the Cyber Hobby Orange box w/ figures included. If you decide to build the Dragon kit get one with Magic Tracks or use after market as the indy links are not fun removing and cleaning up. I’m eagerly awaiting the Takom Hetzer Mid Production release hope Takom includes pre die cut mask are included for the box art camo.

As I recall the command version is actually mid-production and the mid-production is actually late production. The kit built up pretty good and for the era was not too bad. There were a bunch of up-grades available, but I don’t know how many of those are still around.
