No they have not, the instructions are frankensteined from 3 generations of instructions-photo, line drawing and detailed line drawing. Same for painting guides, half are photos half drawings. However you get the best plastics they have for the kit plus usually 3d printed extras, which look really good.

For your information, the M4A4 Sherman with the 60lb tulip bombs was a Guards Armoured Division vehicle, the 1st Bn Cold stream Guards tried them first, and managed to get them from RAF Typhoon crews, I did a lot of research into them and had never ever seen one built, so I set about building a Dio with 2 Firefly's with them fitted, and I'm about to sell the Dio after some 5yrs of building it up

Dragon was pretty much on top for a few years when it came to WWll German armor,particularly Tiger 1 kits, and they invested a lot in research with David Byrden heping with translating all the stuff that makes a Tiger a Tiger but in 35th scale,he was in a cpl of the same facebook groups as me and when someone mentioned anything about the Tiger,regardless of relevancy,he would make sure to correct em if they had any details incorrect and a few of us started saying stuff wrong intentionally just to get him going,we thought it was hilarious but he loves talking about tanks and he absolutely knows his stuff,but anyway,when Ryfield and Border came on the scene Dragons been left in the dust but apparently theyre not going down yet and thats great,makes the market more competitive,I remember getting the Wittman Tiger brand new for something like 80 bucks which is ridiculous,now you can get a Tiger 1 with a full interior for 80 bucks,Dragon was busting heads,glad to see em back releasing stuff

Love Dragon I used to build them professionally for Museums, high end collectors and online model magazines. Not seeing any W.W.2 Planes kits AIMS makes some awesome conversions for them too.. Hope they upgraded them as well. Can anyone tell me why not one single model company makes a DO-217K in 1/48 or 1/32 scale? You can get crappy ones in 1/72 scale and old conversion kits for Revells old 1/48 DO-217E if you are lucky enough to find one of those old conversions that the canopy hasn't turned yellow. No one makes a JU- 390 kit either no even in 1/72. I built 1/72 JU-390 for a high end collector in Japan out of 2 Revell JU-190 kits so it would not take much for Revell to add a few extra parts and make a few small changes to its current 1/72 JU-290 kit if they ever wanted to release a 390 kit.

Great Video Andy, Thanks for sharing and making everyone envy with your warehouse. glad to hear they are at last reducing thier prices wondering if this will apply to us modellers here in the U.K. you mentioned U.S $50.00 which here in the U.K is about £37.00. I stopped buying Dragon kits many years ago because of the over priced kits and have been buying the newer brands like RFM and Miniart etc.. I also like to think the instructions will have improved but wishfull thinking on many of us..

Cool - I noticed a lot of figures have been upgraded to gen 2 which is great if they also upgraded their molds; unfortunately, when it comes to figures, Dragon went with quantity rather than quality, pumping out lots of sets with soft details and even divisions in the plastic where it seems to have hardened in stages or someting - very unprofessional and something I haven't seem with other brands. That said, the gen 2 comes with some really nice equipment, like German gasmask canisters in three parts, eliminating those flat short ends that are so common. Another wish is that they also fixed their instructions - one kit I bought (a panzer III, don't remember which, had instructions so bad I made one mistake after the other and ended up trashing the kit. That was a downer.
