new toy from Kyosho

[59burst]

I don't even know the exact name of this. we do have totally different name here
anyway this infrared 6 channel digger is very funny. not so strong nor heavy enough for digging the dirt. but works fine with beans

Thats pretty neat and different. I saw one on eBay a few days ago. Here they're called excavators.

KYOSHO 1/50 KOMATSU PC1250-8 Hydraulic Excavator 66002
But $300 for a 1/50 is a little steep for me

[GJW]

have you learnt to balance it on the bucket yet? ive seen real operators doing that.its wild.

Good price, only one on ebay is $300 posted, they brought them out in 2007/2008 at $139 but a limited run apparently.

I think this batch is a kind of reissue. and it's still pretty cheap

That's the first thing I thought of too! LOL

Know how they got it back down? They backed the crawlers off the back legs of the tower ...

I'm a D11 fan myself, but really all construction equipment is pretty cool. If money were no object I'd buy out Wedico's supply because you can actually dig and play with them, unlike the plastic Tyko, Nikko, etc., toys that are more common.

On a similar note, I've got some 'fly by wire' Tonka's that are pretty cool, not able to do anymore than push beans around, but still fun.
