Here's just a sample of the great items we are offering at great prices, but don't stop here. Go take a look at the hundreds more on our website!

SNEAK PREVIEW of new 1/24 M2 '57 Bel Airs coming out this Fall

M2Machines emailed Friday morning with a sneak peek at two really nice 1/24 scale cars they are working on (pictures are PROTO-TYPES). These 1957 Chevy BelAir models are scheduled to come out THIS FALL! However, they are only expecting a "very limited amount of product for this fall." They went on to say "so please try to get your order in as soon as possible."

We are working on doing that and then getting them onto the site so you can do the same. None of us are going to want to miss out on these classics in the detailed quality that M2 does at the incredible price point we all appreciate.

They also said that once they have the final production of these 2 vehicles, they will get the final images to us. Once we get those, we'll get these sneak peak images replaced for you.

HUMONGOUS Mining Truck is the talk of the community!

Let's start out with the definition of the word:

hu-mon-gous (hyoo-muhng'-guhs) - adjective slang 1. extraordinarily large in bulk, quantity, or extent 2. of unbounded extent, scope; limitless. - Synonyms: mammoth, gigantic, colossal, vast, stupendous, huge, enormous, immense, tremendous, massive

This definition comes right out of the flyer that we received just yesterday on the new Caterpillar 797F Mining Truck Die-Cast Scale Model Replica. There is no exaggeration in using the synonyms "mammoth"and "colossal." Let's start with some background:

Just days ago at the MINExpo 2008, Caterpillar unveiled what is being called "the next generation of mining trucks." Included is the 797F mining truck which is replacing the the flagship 797B. Caterpillar prides themselves on prodiving machines for all types of terrain, as is clear with this particular machine.

So without further ado:

Introducing the 797F! Features will include:

• 1/50 scale (but remember, this thing is HUGE!)
• Truck bed that raises and lowers
• Wheels that roll with authentic tread design
• Power Edge and nomenclature deco
• Grab bars, ladders, and authentic trim detail
• Clear window with interior cab detail
• And let's be sure we're clear on this one: It's humongous!
  

I suppose you want to see it, huh? We are awaiting the image of the model itself, but here is the real thing. Get your orders in now and we will ship it to you as soon as it arrives in December!

Don't forget to click the picture!

New Norscot just announced!

Impressive. That is the word for at least one of these newCaterpillar items, just announced by Norscot. These are so exciting! The first to arrive will be a new Off-Highway truck, with a redesigned cab. This kind of truck is made specifically for mining and all-terrain purposes. It's an extremely durable machine and keeps things moving fast in the field. (Images are clickable, as always!) This detailed model will be hitting the water, on its way to us, in a matter of days, to arrive at the very start of November.

Our next model is a 988H Wheel Loader. This is an updated, 21st Century machine, and Caterpillar has added increased durability and performance, for maximum productivity. We are proud to offer a quality model of this updated machine, due to arrive in December.

I will be saving the absolute best, most exciting item for last. I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

First though, I wanted to give you update on what will be arriving on our next container, along with the Off-Highway truck. These are items that we have never seen in person, so get your orders in and be the first to get your hands on them! Here's what we've got:
