WOW, I guess I'm going to have to sneak over again to play with these now....Just Kidding Roy...lol They are giants, I made big dollars transporting these off the wharfs in Sydney and take them across to the Gold mines in Western Australia. The front shovel was 16 loads, and the normal one was 12 or 14 loads. For the detail on them they are worth the money, just look at the detail on the pins. That excavator can go with that, wouldn't mind a 390, I'll have to keep an eye out for it when I'm over in May Need to see if that German guy could turn these into RC. I hope they make the a 357G push pull twin powered scraper in 1:87
Nice job, can’t wait for my shovel to show up. Going to look great at my rock yard. You might be able to put a little wax or a small bit of grease to move them easier.
Hey Roy, when I lived in Tonopah Nevada I used to service some Gold Mines. Those Shovels were usually dedicated to the bottom of the pit. Giant equipment and they had 2 motors when they truck them into the mine they came in half because of the size. The doziers usually worked just the tailings after it was prossed and dumped. The dump trucks they had were so big that the tires alone made my truck look like a toy and I was driving a F550 I unfortunately also seen what it looked like when a dump truck ran over a pickup. It looked like it went into a compactor. Really amazing equipment. Oh and they had Frount End Loaders that usually loaded the trucks. I not positive but I think the dump trucks they had were twice the size of the ones you have like I said before the tires were big enough to run over a pickup and the dump truck didn't even feel it. It never stopped. When you go to the safety class before you can work in the mine they talk about that. Anyway keep having fun, Chris

Like I said in the video, after I position them I won't be playing with them! Maybe? Lol
Roy I know us, you’ll be playing with them.

With the size of the mining equipment beind so huge, you would really have to know the equipment to really know what scale they are.
those are really nice looks bigger then ho scale but i'm not sure what a ho scale tractor looks like
They were 1/87 scale!
Great video. I hope you look up my review on them.
1:87 vs. 1:50, what is the difference!!
HUMAN, A LOT!
Are the tracks metal??
Yep
Did they make them in 1/50?
I'm not sure? Check out Diecast Emporium.
Not yet. But they had this at CCM at 1/48 scale. Pretty much sizes well with 1/50. Latest CCM release was on white. Sold out already.
to big for me.. lol
THEY ARE 1/87 SCALE, THAT'S HO!
