MAN TGX XXL 8x4 Prime Mover with Ballast Box
|
Twin chromed exhaust stacks rise from the engine bay with the MAN logo embossed onto the silencer housing for added realism. The ballast box has crisp structural detailing cast into the surfaces with simulated tie-down brackets |
The detail behind the cab is very good with a frame containing two large tanks along with a cooling pack complete with a circular mesh guard and a silver walkway with a textured surface. |
The underside of the MAN TGX has a replicated drivetrain between the two rear axles although, due to the construction of the front two axles, the driveshaft is not modelled between the engine moulding and the driven axles. The front two axles do have working, linked steering and achieve a reasonable degree of turn and the rear axles float within the frame, simulating the suspension of the full sized truck while the tyres have a detailed tread pattern mounded into the surfaces with silver plastic wheel hubs.
The model is packaged in the familiar cardboard box with inner, foam lined insert. As expected from Conrad, the paint finish is excellent with crisp decal printing throughout. This is another good addition to the growing range of Felbermayr decorated replics.
