Hello all, a couple of my recent purchases I can not find my old post so here is a new one. Sorry the picture quality is not that great, can't get outside due to the weather.

Besemer Scania sand tipper, this is an awesome piece of diecast:


van den BRINK Volvo with 3 axle Nooteboom, really happy with this one:

First Gear Peterbilt 367, a great truck and a really good bargin too!



Northern LTM1300 with alot of details, more to come on this one:


With the Schmidbauer AC500 I just got:


NZG Terex RT130, I really like this one, very nice crane especially for the dollar


Many more to come, thanks for having a look!

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.

Thanks guys, I will try to get some pictures of both the RT130 and the 1300 rigged this week. I am Mr. Mom for the weekend, I was surprised both by the size and the detail on the RT130 the best RT diecast I have owned.

I just the First Gear Peterbilts today at a toy show. I bought the red/white 3 axle and the white/red dump truck. I am a little disappointed with how far the hood opens and the lack of steerable front wheels. Overall though it is a nice model I'd recommend it. Nice purchase Bigcranes.

Here is the LTM1300 Northern with a completely repainted YCC luffer kit, enjoyTeeth
Mark






The YCC kit is quite nice and a fair price when you see what is included, especially if you leave it yellow!

I did not have any problems with the luffer kit, YCC did a nice job with it. You get everything in the box that you need, nice walkways for the jib (even a walkway for the base of the Conrad fly jib), metal pendants, extra cw, liebherr hook ball, etc. I need more cw, so I will probably pick up a second set.

That LTM1300 does look the dogs wotsits. Nice job indeed.

van den Brink is a nice model and I have both on order at the moment. I am hoping to receive a few models here in the next couple of weeks or so.
