I just stumbled across this item on ebay. It looks like it could be useful to somebody, and all things considered, the price doesn't look bad. Wibau Asphalt Plant - 1/200 - NZG #243 - MIB - eBay (item 140385937137 end time May-24-10 20:19:42 PDT) Just thought that I would give a heads up. Dan S.
The same seller also has these: Haulpak 4000 Loader - 1/215 - Pewter - Mint - eBay (item 380162442457 end time May-24-10 12:38:54 PDT) Haulpak 830E Dump Truck - 1/215 - Pewter - Mint - eBay (item 140397791724 end time Jun-06-10 18:41:26 PDT) But they are a bit pricy for what they are. Dan S.
Dan, I went looking at the other construction items on his site and my mouth drooled at the imaginary thought that someday those very items would be available in injection cast plastic, just like ordinary models now available. If the Japanese ever figure out that 220 is the scale to do, then we can expect to see a lot of nice items coming down the pike, er, I mean rails......
