jonwayne Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 I used to have a few cheap model kits many many many many many many years ago. Threw them away many many many years back. silly me. until recently saw this release by CMS: http://www.hlj.com/scripts/hljpage.cgi?CMS65010 just wish to see if there's any bigger model or resin kit or diecast toy of these around. anyone?

Opus Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 There's tons of vintage Dougram stuff out there. Check eBay. Here's a good site that'll give you a good idea what's out there to be had. http://dougram.battletechnology.org/ I'm a big Dougram freak. Here's a pic of my favorites. The 1/72 dual models. Just ignore that Gundam on the left. Quote
GobotFool Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 I have the 1/48 Dougram. Amazing toy, mostly plastic with only diecast feet. about 8 inches tall I'd say. I'll try and snap a few pictures later on. Only flaw is the bubbles hands, a common trait among all mecha toys from the 80's. Quote
GRAND CANNON Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 I've currently have a couple 1/72 Dougrams and a Soltic along with the Battle of Stanrey game ....... but had a bunch of the 1/144s back in the day when they were on the pegs at TRU. Especially remember my 6-legged Desert Gunner.. The 1/48 is an excellent piece as well as the RARE 1/72 Blockhead. Here's a ToyboxDX link and you can also search for drifand's great write-ups.... http://www.toyboxdx.com/data/dougram/dougram.html Quote
Opus Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 The 1/48 toy is greatbut the 1/48 model kits are definately the best. They have polycap joints and most come with extra hands in different poses. I have a bunch of them but I'm too lazy to build em. Quote
UN Spacy Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 I'd have to agree about the 1/48 Dougrams. The sheer amount of die-cast and quality construction is unbelievable. A very heavy piece for something so small. The amount of armor is also well worth it's weight in gold. Quote
Opus Posted June 19, 2004 Posted June 19, 2004 I wish Yamato grabbed the Dougram licence. Takara has done a nice job but I wish some they update the toy line.Here's my updated collection, I only need one more 1/144 to complete this collection. Which 1/144 do you need? I may have an extra. Isn't there some speculation about CM's being owned by Yamato? Maybe they're testing the waters with the new trading figs. I wish someone would sub the anime and do a R1 release. If not the series at least the Movie. Quote

The stuff is all over eBay. The model kits usualy go for good prices. The 1/48 toy and the 1/72 Blockhead toy can get kinda crazy though. Pay close attention to the boxes if you buy though as there have been re-issues done at least twice and of course the US version has a different box as well. It's been me experience that alot of sellers don't know that much about these things. http://search.ebay.com/dougram_W0QQsokeywo...rectZ1QQfromZR8 edit: added a link for the lazy.

Bloodcat Posted June 19, 2004 Posted June 19, 2004 Ive got the first set of the new capsule toys. Ironically, they are almost PERFECTLY to scale with Mechwarrior Dark Age, should one prefer the original Griffon, Goliath, Shadow Hawk, or Wolverine when they go into clicky conflict. (Or use the minis for regular Battletech like I do.) Ive also got a a few of the late 90s Dougram model rereleases. Only put together the Soltic (Griffon), which is kinda nifty. I need to do the Shadow Hawk (Dougram Jakt Type) one of these days.. then they can go to war against my other toys that were things in Battletech, and it WILL ROCK YOUR MOM. Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted June 19, 2004 Posted June 19, 2004 The little blue one (don`t know the name) since 87, it `s also in Sithlord`s pic far left, 90% die-cast . Quote
replicant2019 Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 I just need Eyevan DT-2 "Bromry" (Takara Dougram 1/144 Collection Series - 08) to complete my Takara 1/144 set. http://toyboxdx.com/datafiles/data/dougram/dougram.html Quote
