Re: New Dragon Figure Private "Robert Davies" BEF Lewis Gunner Dunkirk 1940

To my dying day I won't understand this:
1 gun and 4 pouches - that makes the need for 5 magazines - yet DML puts 3 magazines in the box - giving us reason to keep on being negative/critical/diaspointed etc.
Would the 2 last magazines tip the scale on price and costs - surely not.

If then DML made us an extra set with additional magazines and some other stuff - well then it would be business - a bit annoying business - but business.

But time and again they don't exploit the option of additional sets - and only leaves us with fighting over the loose parts.

DML is not alone in this - when DID did the british officer with the Vickers - they only provided on ammo box to go with a carrying pouch for 2 ammo boxes - and so on.

I have got a 120mm morter - with only one round - and so it goes.

Lots of jeeps are sold - but try getting an engine!

Sometimes you wonder if ammo and ammoboxes are the diamonds of the this hobby?

If any of the major players would release sets with ammo boxes - jerrycans - magazines - shells etc. - I'm quiet sure sales would be good.

But ammo boxes and magazines just aren't as sexy or useful as a crab, a turtle or a road wheel

I agree Henrik, but I fear getting DML to provide the correct number of magazines is like getting the them to proof read the instructions in their models kits. Is never going to happen
