Academy 1/72 Dragon Wagon U.S. Tank Transporter Model

The Academy 1/72 Dragon Wagon recreates a classic U.S. heavy transporter from the Second World War. Built to shift tanks and heavy equipment, the real vehicle was a logistical backbone and this kit captures those defining proportions for model builders.

Scale Accuracy and Period Detail

Known for its rugged construction, the Dragon Wagon is modelled here with attention to cab shape and trailer geometry. The kit parts reflect the functional design of the original, giving the finished build a convincing period look for display or research models.

Assembly Advice for Hobbyists

Yes, the kit has a range of small components that recreate the transporter structure. Careful removal from sprues and gentle filing will preserve those details.
A sharp hobby knife, fine files, plastic cement, and tweezers are recommended. A magnifier can help when aligning tiny parts at 1/72 scale.
Definitely. The transporter works well on a small scene such as a repair yard or road convoy, and its size fits neatly with other 1/72 vehicles and figures.
