OK I'm not sure where to put this but in my search for some 1/18th scale dragons I've come across some possibilities.
My preferred dragons are the D&D versions.

Does anyone have these?

Also I found this on Amazon & was wondering about the scale

the spectre should know for sure. my guess is they are all too small for grown dragons in our scale. safari knights are small so the dragon might be 7" or so. the ebay set says 6" so young dragons at best.

The Kid Galaxy ones are small, around the size of the "Jurassic World" line's Attack Pack assortment and are barely articulated. I love the sculpts and designs though, I bought 6 sets.

The Guardian Dragon stands about 6" tall, is beautifully sculpted but non-articulated. I have one, as well as almost every other Safari Ltd. dragon offering.

The Other World's double headed dragon is still one of my favorites and can be found easily for aroun $20. The back half is plastic, but the front half is bendy rubber. It came with a saddle and reigns made of really cheap plastic, it was made for a 3.75" rubber bendy figures to ride so it scales well.

There are several Draco from the movie Dragon Heart dragon figures out there. Everything form a 30" wingspan version to smaller figure riding versions. Ultimately they're no better than the chap mei dragons.

McFarlane has a ton of dragons including some larger beasties. But as with everything McFarlane, they're just as likely to crumble right out of the package or break the first time you move it.

BFS saddles will fit them. How much bigger do they have to be?

all my dragons are on the small side of fitting with 1:18. also i don't like dragons with 4 legs and wings. mostly because i see what science calls dinosaurs as dragons.

Dragons with 2 legs and wings are usually referred to as Wyrvvens.

What is a dragon without wings?
Drakes are a little tough. Often, they are similar to the standard "dragon" with the difference that they typically do not have wings. These are often also referred to as Eastern Dragons or Chinese Dragon. In other instances, Drake is synonymous with Wyrm.

cool stuff!
