John Deere 450D Tracked ExcavatorPresented here is the 1:50th scale John Deere 450D LC tracked excavator from ERTL. The model is from their "High Detail" series and follows the trend of producing models with good detailing and opening compartments. Being a high detail model, there is a detailed engine block situated under the lift up opening engine cover, The cab is detailed inside and the boom is fully functional with hydraulic pipework visible. The plastic safety railings look good if a little overscaled and the rear view mirrors are a nice touch. The main body casting looks great with side and top textured panel detailing and simulated anti-slip panels painted on for a little extra realism.
The individually linked metal tracks are a very nice addition to the model and are highly detailed with grouser and bolt detailing on each pad. The paint finish is excellent with accurate Deere markings and logos. The detail on this model is very good for the price and is another great addition to the John Deere model series. The model is pictured below alongside the Deere 400D ADT. |
