*HINT* CONRAD *HINT* Very nice model! Would be nice if Conrad made one in 1:50 to go with the 996!

to be honest, i would wonder when Liebherr would NOT have his new mining flagship made as a promo model...
they have always treated us with a good flow of new models

I'd much rather see the model (if anyone ever does it) come from NZG, who has really impressed everyone lately with their attention to detail. I've said it once, I'll say it a thousand times more: Conrad needs to increase their detail level on their models. Even the new excavator models lack the hosing work. If Conrad expects people to pay the high prices for their models, they better show better attention to detail work like NZG has. Cool model! Realy gives you an idea of the size of that beast! Who built it anyway?

The 1:25 scale model was made by Peter Kiem in Germany especially for Liebherr to use at the show.
Peter built a 1:25 model of the RH-400 for the 2004 MINEXPO.
He is a very skilled modeler.

iswgg1,
Do you have any pics of that 1:25 scale RH 400 that was displayed at Minexpo 2004? Would really love to see that one-Peter is certainly one of those model makers who's work is in high demand.
Thanks

What are the specs on the R9800 compared to EX 8000 in terms of bucket volume and op weight?
Are any spec brochures out yet?

Both are 800 ton class machines with 40m buckets but various site material can have that bucket size swing a couple of cubic metres either way along with operating weight also moving a few tons either way depending on options and customer spec add ons.
The RH400 is in the next class up from these 2 (plus the PC8000) and so far is all on its own as the title holder.

Cool model! Realy gives you an idea of the size of that beast! Who built it anyway? The reason for that is that Conrad builds their models in Germany, NZG dont. That is the reason why the Conrad models cost more and has less detail.

Looks great to me but I don't know a lot about the machine. But I still think it looks great.

Also, the Vermeer stand had some stunning models in 1:50 of the trencher and miner. Apparently, these are made in China. I've no idea how much they cost but the detail was very impressive.

Just to add like most others I'd like to see this model produced I'm sure there would be a market for it amongst collectors.It should, like has been comented on be well detailed put simply we work hard for our money to buy our models with so we expect our models to be detailed this helps us part with the money easier,they can good detailing on the smaller models.
