This model is a Scania Streamline 6x4 + 3
axle Semi Low Loader + Wooden Box. It is in the colours
of the Dutch lifting and haulage specialist, Mammoet.
Packaging
The box has some Mammoet branding and photos of some
Mammoet equipment. Inside, the model is contained
within folded cardboard.
The review model had no defects or missing parts.
The only assembly to do is to fit door mirrors and add
the load.
Detail
The underside of the
Scania has reasonable detailing in
the plastic parts. The tyres have a tread pattern.
The cab is metal and nicely decorated in Mammoet colours
and a fleet number is included. There are beacon
lights on the roof, and the front grille is very good
for the scale.
The semi trailer is mainly a metal part with simple
detailing underneath. The gooseneck has a spare
tyre, and the storage box sides are a plastic part.
There are textured surfaces on the deck including
plastic replica timber sections. It has a yellow stripe
and excellent detailed graphics
down the deck edges and the rear of the trailer has nice
details.
The
wooden box is a plastic part.
Features
The
Scania rolls well. It does not have steering.
The trailer deck is extendible.
The wooden box load can be added or left off.
Quality
The quality is good for an inexpensive model.
The paintwork has a good finish and the graphics are
very sharp.
Price
It is good value.
Overall
This is
a good looking and detailed model in 1:87 scale, and it
would also pair well with the Liebherr LTM 1500 in the
same scale. It would also be a good fit on a an HO
scale model railway.
Footnotes
The Mammoet model number is 900035.
