JCB 190 Robot Skid Steer

Presented here is the 1:35th scale JCB 190 Robot wheeled skid steer loader from Joal. The model has some nice detailing with crisply cast rubber tyres that have an authentic tractor style tread pattern and printed black dots on the wheel hubs simulating the fixing bolts.

The boom can be raised to an impressive height, simulating the full range of movement found on the full sized machine however, the bucket tip is very limited and large silver headed rivets are used on the linkage and don't look particularly realistic, although these can be touched up with a little black paint.

The rear body and grill casting is crisp and well formed with accurate printing of the JCB logos whilst the cab interior has been captured well with the seat sporting the JCB logo and the joystick controls and display panel all highlighted. The model, along with the tracked 190T make a good addition to the growing range of 1:35th scale JCB models.
