Hi all,

I´m heavily in search of an alternade model for Dracodile. Reason is the fact that PP seems to avoid to propper support the european market. It is the hell expensive to get a Dracodile here in germany. (in fact I even considered dropping the game due to that bad "sportsmanship" by PP)

Well, that being said I found the following models:

www.reapermini.com/Miniatures/monster/sku-down/77380#detail/77380_p_3_mp

mierce-miniatures.com/index.php?act=pro&pre=mrm_dkl_kth_kro_mbs_101_000

Especially the mierce miniatures one is really nice looking, though the Reaper one is pretty inexpensive.

Any further ideas / advice?

I'm in the same boat as you, and I think if you find this bad boy somewhere, it could be a fine alternative:
(I once found it in a french webshop for about 20€, but their supply quickly drained to 0.)

The only problem is that it can be a pain to find one at a european source.

Hi Zwergenkrieger,

i life in germany too. I've ordered mine in the Pre-Order phase and payed with taxes around 115€. I think it's not to expensive compared to other gargantuans or colossals.

The Reaper mini looks decent to me, if the mini fits on a 120mm base and doesn't look to small.

That Reaper Mini's base is already something like 6" in diameter.

Are you asking for advice or passive aggressively complaining about BAHI? If you want advice, the second one looks better. If you’re complaining about BAHI, based off the price of similar models, it looks like this distribution method saves the consumer 15-25% in overhead, which are then collected in taxes by your government, meaning you’re right back where you started anyway. I’d argue that the policy makers who decided to make you pay what amounts to a fine for buying a game piece made outside of Europe are the actual bad sports rather than PP.
