My wife and I just got back from are local wal-mart. In an earlier post ,someone wrote that you could get the HO heavy equipment from good ole wally-world,didn’t believe them. Well they were right…went and bought all they had. Bought three Cat D5 dozers,two Cat pan scrapers,four Cat loaders,two Cat graders, three Cat track-hoe’s and a Cat klein water truck.
Would have bought more but the wife …gave me that look. You know the look…{like don’t you have enough}
So to whoever posted wal-mart has norscot HO…thanks for the info.
Your welcome! There not bad detail for $5. I’ve seen them on die cast sites for $15-$18 each. I’m lucky enough to have the head of the toy dept. call me when she gets 1/87 stuff in.
Thanks again Loather . Come to think of it ,I have a conection at wal-mart too. I’ll have to talk to him and see if he can hook me up when they get more.
You guys are lucky My walmart only has the cars picked up 17 of them today. I wasnt the Norscot heavy equipment. myabe its time I talk to the toy manager. I wonder if other members of this forum would pick them up for us unlucky guys hmmm.
FRITSCHSR-I got the same ones you did. I’m going to do the same thing with mine.
MR had a good article on making tie downs and wheel chocks for this same equipment in the June 05 issue.(chains,chocks and shackles)
Does Norscot make 2 different levels of detail on these? Mine where in Norscot 1/87 scale packages.
The Wal-Mart ones come in a package similar to Matchbox & hot Wheels
cars, they say Built To Play on the package. The ones in hobby shops come
in a box shaped package and seem better detailed to me. Correct me if
I am wrong.
