Diecast Masters 85554 - Cat D6 LGP VPAT Track Type Tractor, scale 1:50, from 14 years, in metal box, Suitable for collectors

Its reasonably detailed but i got a d71-pxi from first gear also and it was more detailed than diecast masters and the tracks werent as loose as they are on this

The price went down about $70 and the shipping was only $5.54 so I bought it. While tracking it after it was shipped I found out there would be $66 in duties and customs charges. This actually ended up being $71 at the door. No mention of duties or anything on the screen while purchasing or at any stage leading up to "Place Order". Also, the shade of yellow is slightly off from my other CAT machines. I think these things were better when Norscott was making them.

My uncle used to own a dozer and used it for many years to earn his living. He has great fondness for it and despite being retired for a couple decades, at 85, he’d jump back on it if he had the chance. A neat way to soothe his nostalgia and remind him of his younger days building roads and digging ponds was to give him the little replica for his birthday. He was impressed with the accuracy and the way parts are movable. Even though it is smaller than expected, (it was advertised correctly, I just don’t know the size of the original, so couldn’t visualize the scaled down version), it’s so precise and detailed, it was worth the money. My uncle approves! It’s on a shelf in his living room with a spotlight devoted to it. He loves it.

Well made, highly detailed accurate diecast model

I wish it was a bit bigger for the price. But it does have moving parts and very accurate detailing. I was going to buy the excavator but I think I’ll loook for a different store where they offer a bigger model
