I just feel sorry for US mammoet collectors,we get euro models what seems like every month,the last Mammoet US model I think was the Sword KW,about 18 or 24 months ago,and the Pete before that,so I think its a little unfair to say here ya go!! for $1000
as the model will surely be impressive it will only be an option to serious Mammoet collectors and super serious HH collectors,people who can afford to drop big bucks on a single purchase,of which are few and far between compared to the average joe
Perhaps a simpler smaller US out fit will follow
Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"?

The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.

Well if Bob is correct and I'm sure he is, the US collector is not completely left out if they can't afford the complete outfit because the tractor units will also be available separately. Not a bad compromise really.

I'm just extremely glad that these new tractors are coming. It will start with the Mammoet model, but I'm sure there will be other trucks and liveries to follow. People can bitch about the price all they want but the fact is that this Mammoet set will open up a bunch of new North American HH models. And more choice is always better.

admin, Sounds like you have all the information regarding the subject model, so where is the listing so the collector can place an order? RMSmodels@aol.comrandy.m.smolenack@us.army.mil

Paul R This is good news.I would consider the complete model, but this is a great option. I do want to get the tractors for sure. Art

Chuck So why not talk them into doing more models to get the price down to where more people will/can buy it ?

WOW this will be an awsome setup to show. I go past these guys everyday for 2 weeks at a time hauling into Fort Mcmurray. Its funny PREMAY doesnt do any models. Im sure the big guys at MULLEN could pay for a bunch of tooling for trailers and loads in a few differant liverys
