I just purchased the new Dragon IDF MAGACH 3 (kit #3578) and there's a part that is missing. It looks as though it was snipped from the spruce tree. The question is this, how do I go about getting this part sent to me? I have no idea how to go about doing this. I've had over the years a part or two missing from Tamiya kits and I've just called Tamiya USA and in a few days the part was in my mail box. With this being a Dragon kit I have no idea who to contact. Certainly any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Yes, it's part of the left front fender assembly.

I have had only good experiences, when dealing with Dragoncare. I usually received the replacement part, within two weeks.

I received an email asking to proof of purchase and details of my case and mailing address to forward @dragon-models.com. We'll see what happens now and I'll post how this all plays out.
