Following on from Chris' great pictures and write up the other day, I received my First Gear D475A-5EO yesterday and I'm very impressed. This is the first, First Gear model that I have purchased and for the price, you get a lot of model and detail. A great addition to any collection...

Nice photos Rowan, you must be a mind reader, as i had wondered what it would look like next to the 355A. The white one is on order but if its a good model i might buy the yellow as well when i have a bit spare cash. So are you going to fit metal tracks to your 355A, DHS used to sell a metal exhaust for the 355A.

Norscot take note on how to make a excellent bulldozer model! Thanks for posting Rowan.

Thanks for posting mine are a few weeks out. What a great model. I am glad I sold my NORSCRAP D11R and D11T models. This one will be a better fit on the shelf.

No worries guys, it looks great on the shelf and I was happy with the photos from my phone.

I originally bought it as a project model and have already built a new exhaust. I also intend to purchase tracks and a cab from Nigel Paine in the future so I will do a full repaint, I've just got to setup a darn paypal account.
