Wow, thats a great looking crane. Its like a miniture ltm11200! Its very interesting to see the superlift arms made from lattice work as opposed to the usual solid construction. It'd make a great model

@ DeWoc19
I believe all cranes are painted in Grey Primer Color until after Testing, which then they get painted into customer colors

Interesting looking crane. I do wonder if there will be a model made.
As Mammoet says "SIZE DOES MATTER". Slowly collecting Mammoet 1:50 scale stuff. Mainly cranes!

i know it gets primed gray, but those rims, outriggers and superlift pieces definitely look painted black

Do you think the superlift arms will stay like that or they will be covered?

A very interesting and great looking crane. The lattice superlift arms are also very unusual but I can't decide if I prefer the usual "solid" versions - I think I maybe prefer the traditional ones though. Oh I hope there are a few surprises at the Nuremberg Toy Fair 29 days to go....

Just remember gents, Lattice is alot stronger than solid, then agian they may be going to give an option of Lattice or solid Superlift arms. Just a thought.

Im sure by going to a lattice design they saved a lot of weight on that piece. Looking to drop weight where they can. Good looking crane, Can't wait to see it painted.

Really a beautiful crane! I like the SL lattice work myself. It will be interesting to see how these sell, as Terex has about 100% of the market in this class crane until now. I do hope there is a model a some point, but please don't overlap the ltm1350(s?)

NZG did a pretty good job with the LTM11200-9.1, but the first thing we all did was buy new boom cylinders and counterweights from YCC. Also, I know I am not the only one that had to file down the upperstructure to get the boom to fit. I would not expect those types of mistakes from WSI.
