Tractor dimensions: 12"L x 7"H x 6"W. Trailer dimensions: 23"L x 9"H x 5"W.

The approximate dimensions of the full size machine are
Tractor length: 25 ft. 4 in. (7.72m)
Tractor width: 10 ft. 10.75 in. (3.32m)
Tractor height: 10 ft. 4 in. (3.14m)
Trailer length: 38 ft. 9 in. (11.81m)
Trailer width: 12 ft. 6.5 in. (3.81m)


This rocket launcher toy / Dragon Wagon is substantially smaller than 1/16 scale.

Looks like about 1/24 scale, so the FOV and VS guys could use it.

I think they are 1 /18 ??
Toys R Us, has them for about $50, look on ( The Fighting 1/18th Fourm ) a fellow details one up , for his tank.
It comes with a lot of junk you can give to the kids, and the tires are off, but?
A good bace for some fun building and it would be cool to see some one R/C one of these.
Im waighting for them to go on sale...like I need another project...

I saw one at a Toys R Us express in Orlando, but I am looking around the valley here in Phoenix. I thought it would make a good battlefield prop.

edoubleaz,

Do you know the name of the manufacturer? I would also be interested in locating one of these wagons.

Found it!

True Heroes, from Toys R Us

Dang, Ya beat me to it.......I came up with the same numbers, but those figures looked so goofy I thought I was doing something wrong and said.......Phoey. Also, about $18 to ship a $40 item (plus tax?) cooled me off fast. Or I could go get it at the store.....$5 bridge toll, $6 gasoline. More Phoey.

The figures in the picture are 1/16, 1/18 and the fellow on the one fourm fit a 1/16 Sherman on it. He may of stretched the trailer.
You could get some one to pick one up for you Rex Ross, you need one.

I wasn't going to post this yet, 'cuz it ain't finished. but since you brought it up, yes, I do need some more recovery trailers. I have the US Rogers M-9 and the Italian Strafurini, and I have thoughts about doing an R/C Dragon Wagon someday (that one would be a real project-time/$$$$). Just before Thanksgiving, I started this Anh116. It's German, but I could always pretend the Allies captured it and paint it Olive Drab. If I ever get around to doing British tanks, I would like to do a Scammel as well. That should satisfy my urge to do a trailer series. I don't know what the French or anyone else had, and I don't know what the Russians had for recovering damaged vehicles. I think they just pushed everything into a lake or swamp somewhere, judging by all of the recovery websites posted on the web. I may take more photos and post them under a new subject tomorrow, if the sun comes out. My indoor photos stink.

Yes, it's 1/16th scale......38 inches long. When I hook it up to my Sd.Kfz.7 it will be a 56 inch long model. If I ever do a Dragon Wagon, the tractor will be based on a 1/14 scale R/C Globeliner from Tamiya........if I can find one that I can afford.....those darn things are as expensive as heck. The trailer is not a problem to scratchbuild.

Now that Christmas is over, I wonder if I could get one of Santas' out of work Elves to paint it for me? [sm=confused.gif]
