Caterpillar 980K Wheeled LoaderPresented here is the 1:50th scale Caterpillar 980K wheel loader which has been produced by Norscot. It is an upgrade to the previously released 980G and looks much better than the former.
The rear engine casting has been captured well with textured grille panels incorporated into the casting and an angled rear engine grille with inset rear facing lights and centrally located Cat logo. The upper surface of the walkways has an anti-slip textured surface which looks good.
The bucket fitted to the model has good detailing of the teeth with an upper simulated rock guard and good underside structural detailing. All the connecting pins have painted heads which improves the appearance and realism of the replica. The model is a very nice upgrade to the previously released 980G and has been produced in two versions. The "Rock Configuration" version shown here is complimented by a material handling version which has a different bucket fitted along with an alternate style of treaded tyres. The paint finish is of a high quality with good printing of the Caterpillar graphics and a high metal content although there are several areas on the model which are produced of plastic and have a slightly different colour.
