Hitachi Construction Equipment
QUESTION:I am considering a new direction in modeling and have been looking for
kits of construction equipment. They seem to be very few and far
between, with most models of construction equipment being preassembled
diecast (toys or otherwise). I have no particular bias against diecast,
but I want to assemble the kits myself instead of purchasing completed
models. Could someone please provide information about
manufacturers/sources for kits, plastic, multimedia and/or diecast?
ANSWER: That, as you are discovering, is a pretty dry hole.
UPC made a small Hitachi power shovel and Cat(?) bulldozer.
Ediagrip(sp?) made a Mitsu power shovel. Then you are down
to the old Ertl equipment.
