sucks this show is every 3 years, i just hope that when i go to the next one, there will be some great new cranes on display, would love to see an ac1000 in person but it would be old news by then.

for everyone going, you have a simple task: take as many pics for us as possible, especially the new manitowocs Wink

DHS will be there - sharing a booth with Mammoet as we have for the last 3 shows. See you in the hallway between the Grand Lobby and the Gold Lot! Booth number 20010.

Some things to see...and order! Kobelco Crane in Mammoet Colors, Mammoet 1:87 Set, and another New Crane Model from Mammoet. If you come to the booth, you can be one of the first to order and receive the Mammoet version of the Kobelco crawler crane model! We are having a few flown in to be available at the DHS HQ to ship during the show to lucky customers! DHS will be the only dealer with this opportunity - so make sure you visit the booth!

Also to see... A brand new JCB Model from NZG, Some new Caterpillar models from Tonkin and some new models from various other companies as well! Make sure you plan to visit the booth number 20010 at this year's event in Las Vegas!

We do not make you lug your models back home in your luggage - we are prepared to ship them directly to you so they arrive when you get back home!

See you there!

Chuck


Are you suggesting that you will be displaying new models that were not seen at the Toy Fair?

Tom,
Have you checked how cheap it really is to go.
I can't believe how cheap it really is.

Hey Dan,

I could go, my parents are going the same week to the race that weekend, I was actually asked if I wanted to go. Had to turn it down, I shouldn't say I don't have the money for it because I do, but the way work is right now it's really good and I can't miss out on the money I'm bringing in now. Trying to pay off a lot of debt too!!

I can promise you I will NOT miss 2017, because I am not waiting until 2020!

Have fun fellas and take many, many pics!

I believe there is supposed to be more announcements coming, remember that Tonkin is announcing 24 more loaders-I mean CAT models this year, maybe they're unveiling a bunch at ConExpo.

What is the retail on the Kobelco crane?

Tom,
That's why I want you to go. You make me laugh all the time! (24 more loaders)
I would like to know the price of the kobelco models myself.
Chuck,
Will you have the American version for sale at the show?

Thanks for posting that. It will be interesting to see what conversion rate is used at Conexpo by both Kobelco and DHS?

My guess- link belt.
I wouldn't be surprised to see the sumitomo in a 248 link belt either.

I'd be willing to bet that the three for another manufacturer are in fact the Link-Belt models announced several months ago.

If or when a version of the Hitachi-Sumitomo comes as a Link-Belt, it will be a 238 HSL. A 248 HSL would require a different and larger undercarriage. I just hope if or when it comes that the counterweights are correct for the Link-Belt, as they are distinctly different than those used on the Hitachi Sumitomo.

It would also be interesting to see if a prototype for the "other Kobelco model" may be on display.
