I have not built the Tiger I yet.

I just picked up both Dragon Tiger I's a few weeks ago.

I'll have a go at them in a few months. I have about 270 unbuilt kits in my closet, so I have many projects to complete over the next 40 to 50 years; I should be 100 by then....

I used Tamiya glue to put the arms (and head) on the figure and later when the arms fell off, I used pins cut in small pieces to attach the arms and a little epoxy 5 minute glue and that seemed to do the trick. It's such a shame, because the face had some good character in it IMHO.

The figures in the Tiger I kit look like some figures that I have cast in resin a long time ago. I don't know if I want to be screaming at inanimate objects again. Also, I really didn't care for those tiny tracks that came with the Dragon 251 kit; I finished the kit by using an old set of Tamiya 251 tracks.

Cheers,
