OTHER INFORMATION

This was to be the first of 4 season Dragon cameo's to be released (one each year) and to be given away on joining the club (along with the regular free membership piece) and it was supposed to be cast in pewter by an outside contracted company but apparently no one was happy with the result (also probably due to cost) so they cast it themselves in resin and painted it to look like metal but this one ended up being the only one given away to club members, the other three pieces (which were sculpted at the same time) turned up at the Extravaganza's as fridge magnets instead in various colours.

Below are photos supplied to me by collector John Noble (and as such are copyright to him) and they actually show an original casting of the Cameo in Pewter befor the decision was made to make them from resin instead
