International Harvester TD25 Bulldozer "Fire Service" version

I.H TD25 "Fire Service" bulldozer

This is the International TD25 bulldozer in 1:87th scale from First Gear. The level of detail on this model is fantastic considering it is 1:87th scale. The colour scheme is that of the US "Fire Service" red and the model is marked with the number 1 on the sides, roof, front grill and rear body.

The individually linked metal tracks are supperbly detailed and are a nice replication of the tracks on the real machine. As 1:87th scale models go, they are the best I have seen at this scale.

The detail provided in the operators cabin is impressive. Even the foot controls have been replicated, along with the levers and the dials on the instrument panel. The open engine compartment shows off a detailed engine block. The blade can be raised, lowered and the rear ripper is functional.

This is without doubt one of the most detailed models available for the price, costing around £30. It is worthy of adding to any collection.
