Steam-Powered Dragon Poised to Invade, Revolutionise Transport

By Mark Wilson on May 14, 2009 at 10:39 PM

Most of us haven’t grown up to possess our own dragon, settling for the mundanity of riding a mid-class Ford, Hyundai or Toyota to work. What if I said that can all change for you?


(What if I just exaggerated a bit for effect?)

The German-crafted Steam-Powered Dragon is powered by a nickel-plated brass boiler double-acting Wilesco steam engine, which drives the dragon’s tin construction to its limits. At 20cm tall, we wouldn’t call the dragon rideable, but maybe if you got really drunk or something…

100 dragons are available for $US1500 apiece. [pucciManuli via Nerd Approved]
