Mercedes Benz Actros 4x4 Truck with CranePresented here is the limited edition version of the 1:50th scale Mercedes Benz Actros 4x4 truck with tipper body and Palfinger crane in the Alfred Arbogast company colours from Conrad. The chromed exhaust silencer box has the Mercedes logo embossed on the front with accurately shaped plastic guards fitted above the rear wheels which have fixing detail cast into them with good detailing of the rear suspension system visible from the underside of the model. The drivetrain is complete, from the gearbox through to the distribution box, where driveshafts travel to the front and rear axles. The tilting cab provides access to the Mercedes powerplant moulding at the heart of the chassis. The front axle features functional steering with a good degree of turn, complete with authentically treaded rubber tyres and highly detailed silver wheel hubs. The cab casting has several holes where the supplied parts need to be fitted, these include a radio aerial which is made of a flexible plastic material and the rear view mirrors. The contoured front grill has an integrated Mercedes logo with amber beacons mounted to the roof. The tipping body features fold down sides which is a nice touch on the model with a grey painted chassis frame and chromed fuel tank. A protective bar is integrated into the rear end of the chassis with light panels, complete with painted lenses also added.
The outriggers can be extended with screw down pads providing added stability for lifting poses and the tipping body has a good amount of movement with pivoting tailgate. The model is packaged in the familiar foam lined inner cardboard wrap with Conrad branded outer printed box, decorated in the familiar Arbogast green paint scheme with printed logos. |
