This is an incredible model from ERTL it is a MUST have to any collector! What
you get for your money is unbelievable, crisp paint, hydraulic lines, cab detail,
and metal tracks for under $30 thats insane! The only flaws with this model are
very minor and can be easily fixed, one would be the large rivits and the other
the excavators digging depth capability... I highly recommened this model
along with its twin the Hitachi 450 model to anyone and everyone you
won't be disappointed!
