Nicolas TR 8x8 Tractomas Prime MoverThe Tractomas is considered the most powerful prime mover in the world with a towing capacity of up to 1000 ton and holds the world record for the largest semi-truck. Nicolas, a member of the TII Group has over 35 years experience in designing and producing a remarkable truck for the toughest conditions throughout the world, be it desert, arctic, military or mining, the Tractomas is perfectly suited for the most demanding applications. Tonkin Replicas has released a stunning 1:50th scale replica of the latest TR 8x8 series truck which is packed with detail including the fully modelled chassis with underside replication of the drivetrain to all four driven axles.
The front axles have linked steering which achieves a fairly good degree of rotation.
The rear housing contains the cooling systems with fan blade detailing visible through the mesh panels and twin exhaust stacks hidden behind more etched grills. A platform wraps around the chassis with a curved stairway giving easy access while steps are integrated into the front body panel on each side. Metal safety railings are fitted throughout with an access ladder leading to the top of the rear module.
The model is packaged in a new type of box with a stiff foam insert keeping the model secure. Also included is a mini brochure highlighting the history of the development along with details of the model options. |
