Just Arrived...Norscot Caterpillar EP16 Lift Truck

The Caterpillar EP16 Lift Truck is a powerful workhorse used in warehouses, where the big trucks are not allowed.  It has been nicely replicated by Norscot in 1/25 scale and has just arrived at 3000toys.com.

This Norscot model - Item #55504 - has some great features including:

• Adjustable and removable forks
• Triplex mast raises and lowers and tilts forward
• Authentic tire tread design
• Rear-wheel steering
• Detailed operator's compartment

It is really easy to adjust the forks to any width, or even remove them. However...What would you be able to accomplish with no forks???

To move the forks, all you have to do is lightly lift up on the fork and slide it to the wanted position.

The hydraulics of the triplex mast are stiff enough to display it at almost any height. WOW...it can raise to a height of 7 inches.

To explore more of the features and additional up-close photos...click here to view out "Details That Matter".

You can also watch our newly released product demo of the Caterpillar EP16 Lift Truck below...

Yeah, we have fun at work! ... a new video & behind the scenes

Last week we took an afternoon and put together a COBI construction blocks set.  It took around two hours, but a lot of that was due to the fact that the monsters kept coming around and messing up our hard work.  Yeah, what the heck, right?!  Here, meet the director, and it might make a little more sense.  Not much, but some. 

Tom examines his new monster hands in preparation for destroying some stuff.

Anyway, we have a video of it for you!  Don't worry, it's not two hours long... we sped it up!!  Good job with the editing, Tom and Darin - it made me laugh!

  

Great Gift Ideas from New-Ray

Are you looking for a birthday present?  Going away gift?  Happy back to school idea?  How about a "just because I love you" present?

I never need a reason to buy a gift.  I don't need a special occasion or special day, I just buy them regardless.  Honestly, I like to shop year-round and hide numerous gifts in my closet, because you never know when you're going to want to give one away.

In fact, just the other day I was going through my closet and found a hot pink watch that's still waiting for an owner.  I thought of my sister, who loves anything pink and who also happened to need a casual watch.  Sure enough, I gift-wrapped it and gave it to her the next time I was at her house.

Regardless of your shopping personality, we wanted to show you some great gift ideas from the New-Ray line.  We love New-Ray for many reasons.  For one, they offer such a wide variety of items from helicopters to farm toys to trucks - the list goes on.  Secondly, they're pretty affordable and who could say that's a bad thing?  I wish I could show you the entire selection, but it's too large!  So go ahead and check it out HERE.

Riding Academy Pick-Up Truck with Horse Trailer Set

Item #SS-37115 - 1/20 scale

 This might make a good gift for your little cowboy or farmer.  It comes with more than enough to fuel their imagination: 2 figurines, 2 horses, fence panels, trailer, truck, and accessories.

Volvo VN-780 Truck - "Got Dirt"

Item #SS-14203A - 1/32 scale

Seriously, what guy doesn't like trucks?  Especially when it comes in a generous 1/32 size with these awesome graphics on the side?  This truck has free-rolling wheels, opening doors, and more!

Western Rodeo Set with Pick-Up and Trailer

Item #SS-38055 - 1/32 scale

Another great gift for your cowboy!  This one comes packed with more horses and figurines and a trailer that can carry them all!

2006 Yamaha YZF-R1 Lights and Sounds Motorcycle - 2-Piece Set

Item #01923-SET - 1/12 scale

These motorcycles come with engine sounds, front lights, rear lights, and even a bottom light.  Motorcycles are great when cars, trucks, horses, and tractors just won't do.

Remote Control Forklift with Rack Accessory

Item #87865 - 11/14 scale

Not gonna lie - I kind of want one and I'm a grown woman.  This is fun and unique because it's not your normal every day remote controlled item.  It's not a car, truck, or airplane, and maybe this would be the perfect item for someone who already has all those "normal" R/C toys.

From the team here at 3000toys.com we wish you a blessed week!  Please enjoy the rest of your Monday and visit us online any time!
