Take a look at this brilliant new model from Norscot! The Caterpillar D5K2 LGP Dozer comes equipped with a Triple Shank Ripper and is cast in 1/50 scale. The item number is 55281.
This great little model is constructed of diecast metal with a few plastic parts. No assembly is required, so you can display as soon as you get it!
The blade on the front is entirely diecast and has great rivet like detailing. This little guy moves up, down and side to side. He is quite the dancer! The blade also features stiff working hydraulics that can be posed in any position.

Here you can also see the nice grill detailing and Cat logo. There are also well scaled hand rails and panels. 

Like the rest of this model, the operator's cabin features incredible details. Just check out the control panels, operator's seat and the wiper blades on several of the windows.
At the rear we find the triple shank ripper. This can also be raised and lowered and posed in any positioned.
Last but not least, we come to the moving, metal tracks. They are individually linked and, as you can see, are incredibly realistic. The sprockets are springy and the tracks move easily. I also like that these are done in CAT yellow.
Speaking of which, you know you have made it big when there is a color named after you!

This Caterpillar model is well detailed and quite realistic. It is sure to be a hit with your customers. That is, of course, if you can bear to give it up!
