I guess I'll start this show. The mailman actually came to my house today! to deliver this.
This is WAY nicer then I thought it would be. If anyone is on the fence about getting this,
I say don't hesitate. If the rumors are true about a link belt version, it will be awesome!

Never seen this version before.. Where did you get it? Or it is a custom paint?

I'm still on the fence, the thing looks great. The only reason being is I would like a longer boom. Other than that the model is perfect in my eyes.

catman15, The pictures do not do this model justice. I would not be surprised if they come out with boom sections, especially if there is going to be a link belt.
Just my opinion.

So far, got a couple CD's and I bought myself a couple models! NZG D9R, Komatsu HM400-3, HD605-7, Liebherr LR634 and a P&H 4100 coming next year.

Oh, and a 3 week vacation back home!

steelman thank you very much for posting those. your right I will pull the trigger on the Hutte rig and wait a little bit for the 300/360. Do you know the difference between the 300 and 360 models? The pictures online look the same other than the decals on it.
