So I want to make a Savage Ork meets Mekboyz army, and I think having dragons represent BurnaBombas and the likes would be pretty cool.

Ive looked on GW and all their dragons seem to be landed, any idea where I can find some flying dragon models that would be the right size?

The HE dragon is modeled launching itself off a broken pillar. It probably could be removed from the rock (you'd have to resculpt the bottom of one foot) if you wanted to.

Reaper have a crap ton of dragons, you ought to find something there. Many of them have transitioned to Bones plastic now.

Reaper Bones 100%. The larger models, the better the Bones material works and they're dirt cheap.

Thanks everyone, the HE model could work but those reaper dragons seem like the way to go. Shame they don't have exact measures on the models, guess I'll have to take my chances

You can ask on the forums, there's a way to tell how large they are - the regulars know, but I can't recall how's it done =/ Anyway do a search and you'll probably find it.

I think they have two triangle pointers in the right side of their pics for scale. The top one shows 1".

I saw the triangle thing, but it doesn't give me exact numbers. I'd like to theory a bit before I jump into it and exact measurements would help.

I'll go jump on the forums there, thanks everyone!

A lot of the reaper stuff were shown on the kickstarter with the same mini for size comparison so check there but generally they went for the bigger dragons

You can also email them with questions. I did and got a fairly prompt response. They even throw in freebies when you order stuff (I've received [random colour] Reaper master series paint bottles and that was just for an order of a couple of blisters.

If you have a Michaels or an AC Moore, they have a line of some rather good and substantially cheaper dragons in the toy area. I don't know the name, but they have other things as well such as spiders, lizards, snakes, etc... PVC colored plastic, and very good to use with miniatures gaming. I picked up a couple of figures, One was an Cyclops, the other was a giant scorpion.

Papo and Schleich are the ones I recall for those. They're on Amazon as well.
