Thanks for the heads up, will be buying both in 2021. Those walk behind/stand on skid steers are very popular around here where I am at. Can never have enough tow behind equipment in 1/50 either. Will be interesting to see what other 1/50 Vermeer models Spec-Cast has planned for the future.

Wow ! A wood chipper in 1:50 scale, never before done, a welcome model for sure.

I’ve got high hopes for the mini skid steer. It should be a great addition to any collection!

If anybody preordered these from DHS they are shipping out. Mine arrived yesterday.

BC1000Xl Tree Chipper. Great model from Speccast, the rear feed chute folds up for transport, the discharge chute rotates, and the cutter drum spins.



Paired with Sword F-250, the hitch is too low on the truck and the jack foot still touches the ground. Have not tried it on the First Gear F-250 yet.







CTX100 Stand on Skid Steer. The range of motion is not the greatest, but still have to give Speccast credit for even attempting to make a model this small in 1/50.

Very nice, thanks for the pics and info! A bunch of those choppers would be a great load for the new East step deck trailer.

Not only is the range of movement poor, the lift cylinders are mounted upside down! For $15 it would be OK but $35 makes it a big NO for me.

Yes, that last bad guy had a hard time with that leg bone! It wasn't connected to the thigh bone!

Cat938K,

Where did you acquire the plow for the Ford F250? Or did you make it?

That is a fully custom “stainless steel” blade with wings, it’s my second blade.
