bluegreen Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Anyone fancy a VW camper van ..............a couple of old mates of mine used to work for VW garage as mechanics and the sight of a camper van turning up needing work to be done on it used to send shivers up their spines ............they truly hated them!

catkom3 Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 I wonder if Schuco are just testing the water with these truck models to see if there is sales potential for trucks,?? Regards Joe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COWBOY Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 The number plate pops off the 7810 handy. A 6810 or 6910 would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDH Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Ooh,I think I could find a use for one of those M.A.N's And that "HIAB" looks very handy, Regards Joe. Likely to be an expensive way of getting hold of a decent HIAB! P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catkom3 Posted February 1, 2014 Author Share Posted February 1, 2014 Likely to be an expensive way of getting hold of a decent HIAB! P Certainly would be Peter,but any other options are few and far between,there is a New Ray ( I think ) Iveco 6 wheeler with a " HIAB " on it,but you don't see them very often,?? Regards Joe.

Regards Joe. Or scratch build, seen that done on a few RC and 1/24 trucks on forums. Very impressive builds replicating the same shape a few millimetres smaller time after time to achive the telescopic boom on large hiab's Would be a nice base model for the Bedford TM 6x6 that Aberdeen council had up at Glenhee ski centre with a snow plow on but sadly likely to be very expensive. As for testing the water for making trucks my inexperienced mind says its more likely to be testing the waters for more military stuff to go with the 1/35 kits that are available would love it if they did build some typical trucks out though as the detail is phenominal in these Already saving for the Unimog with gritter, it's due out this month isn't it?

catkom3 Posted February 1, 2014 Author Share Posted February 1, 2014 You could be right James,but I think the 1/35th truck market is pretty well covered,some nice Knucklebooms here,http://www.accurate-armour.com/showaaproducts.cfm?category=14&subcategory=23 and some pretty spectacular tank transporters here,http://www.accurate-armour.com/showaaproducts.cfm?category=14&subcategory=20 sorely tempted to try one of these Pinzgauers, http://www.accurate-armour.com/showaaproducts.cfm?category=14&subcategory=234 Regards Joe.

catkom3 Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 I've just flipped through the Schuco catalogue again and noticed this Fuchs excavator, thats a bit different in 1/32nd scale,looks like the bucket will open and close,also a bit of a pity these are 1/43rd,never knew such a thing existed a Brabus six wheeled G Wagen, Regards Joe, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPN Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 You just made my heart skip a beat there Joe. I thought the G Wagens were 1:32. There's a couple of videos on the YouTube of 6x6 AMG G Wagens playing in the sand in some Arabian desert. Top of my shopping list if I ever win the Lotto, just ahead of an AMG ML55 for doing the shopping. Edit: Found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 This one seems to have slipped in under the radar, Schuco Holder in 1/32 limited to 1000 models. I quite like it as I have a thing for old and unusual models but it is quite expensive, I found it for £79.99 on ebay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 And they are doing a Deutz-Fahr 9340 TTV: http://www.schuco.de/en/models/new_releases_i_2014/edition_132/deutz_fahr_9340_ttv.1837.html Wish they (or someone) would do the DF C9206 combine...

CX820Joe Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Not sure Mike - not available in their shop yet, and as its only a photo at the minute, I am guessing its a little way away still? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
