DML's always been rather poorly represented in SA (in my opinion) - and it's due to poor representation by the importers, not the retailers or modellers. Most hobby stores do, however, carry a small selection of their kits though when they are available. Try Model Railway Specialists in Plumstead, or SpeedModels in the Century City mall.

IMO it'll be easier, quicker and cheaper to buy what you want from an online seller like LuckyModel.com in Hong Kong. I've bought stuff from them that, including postage and customs charges, still landed at about 60% of the price of the stuff in stores.

hallo spacey
thanks for your replay and advice
i agree with you about dragon poor representation from the importers in RSA
is shocking however to know about the prices you mentioned compared to foreign countries

Down here in Durban Dragon models are pretty well represented in some of the hobby shops ,but the price's are scary.I still find it cheaper to get the stuff over the net.
Has any one tried Kalahari their prices are not that bad and they are local.

I've ordered Dragon figures through Kalahari. Prices are reasonable and delivery was quick. I've also noticed that they've increased their selection of Dragon stuff. Worth a look.
