Bulldozers in 4mm

[Ruston]

Evening all,

 

Does anyone know of any kits or die casts for pre-1990s bulldozers? Preferably of a similar size range to a Cat D8.

Thanks. That would be just the thing if it wasn't HO scale.

There’s potentially one listed here as well that might be 1:76 but not sure if it’s actually available yet

Thank you. Just the thing. And a choice of cable or hydraulically-controlled dozer blades too!

Have you dealt with Milicast yourself, Andrew?

I ordered and received the kit but a major part was missing. Despite 2 emails being sent I have had no part or indeed any reply to the emails.

I have used them a number of times without issue, but then I had no parts missing, so never had to test their aftersales. I'm also called Andrew!

Only at military modelling shows. I get the impression that it is essentially a one man business that could be affected by holidays or illness.
