Does mammoet even own one yet....tired of seeing mammoet this, mammoet that lol. Let some other companies get a chance
Know weldex, Dufour, aertssen, neeb, and steil have one

All I can say is, it's about time, them old tracks are what, 13 years old or so, if not more! They were fine on the 8800, but nothing else

They own at least one. It was in one of there quarterly magazines. I heard a rumour of that they own around 10ish around the world. With 1 ,as far as I know in Canada


Yes, I have some photos of a Mammoet one from when it was working here.

It does look very smart and I would be very surprised if a Mammoet version wasn't made.

Scania V8. The best sounding truck in the world.

Did any body else notice that the Franz Bracht model number is 2744/04 ? The Baumann is 2744/01. Factory version is 2744/00. Is Mammoet 2744/02 or 2744/03. Is there another one that I'm missing ? But I like the Franz Bracht better than the factory or Baumann.


Could be 2744/03 could be a revised version in factory liveryAnxious

Nice looking new style tracks....now if they can create some Conrad Extra 3800 Boom and Jib sections!


I sent an Email off to Conrad 2 weeks ago asking this question and the response I got was "Right now we have no plans for boom/extension kits for Terex CC3800"


So we could be in for a wait. =>:-<

Regards,

Shane



Ahhhh....thanks for the info Shane.

All,
I found this post on the Hansebube forum of the Franz Bracht CC 3800 with updated tracks:

How much better do those new tracks look? I have to be honest and say I am very happy not to have bought an earlier one or I would be very disappointed. I might now actually by one of these when the right livery comes out!

The tracks look magnificent. If Conrad was able to use the CC8800 tracks on CC8800, LR1750, and CC3800, it will be interesting to see if the CC3800 tracks can be used on the LR1750.

Looking very good with the new track pads... but c'mon Conrad, it really was an insult to release the model as you did without changing the existing tooling.

Too little, too late for me I think. Plus there's still a lot of plastic on that model compared to the LR-1600. Looks great, but is it good enough? Hmm.

Also looks like they came up with new boom pins as well..
I have talked to conrad about factory grey replacements, they said they are making those but didn't say if they would cost extra or what. Hoping to hear back soon about it for mine. They do look alot better and I'm glad to know conrad listened to collector opinions. It is a nice model but overpriced in my opinion, I'd say it's about a 600 to 650$ model at most. If it had more boom, I could see maybe another 100 bucks or so but that's just me

Can't wait to see what toy fair brings....

Do you mean that they have the flat face to them? I had not initially noticed this but they do look better and will be easier to paint if one wishes to do so.

As for the Toy Fair, I am dreaming of the LTM 1750-9.1 Smile

New tracks look way better, can't wait til they start dishing out the replacements for us guys who bought the original first run. The new pins look better as well, too bad it took them letting a first run slip out before going back to the drawing board and correcting deficiencies, it would of been better for them to wait to release the updated tracks and boom pins. Atleast we are seeing progress from them after alot of people complained and were disappointed with the model from the beginning. Maybe this will be a turning point for them to improve and catch up to their competitors like NZG, YCC, WSI, etc.
