1:10 Scale articulated Dump truck Plastic.

[SteinHDan]

I'm quite interested in an articulated hauler body parts model too. I'm thinking of doing one as my next project.

But this model looks a bit small. If the length of the model is 40 cm, then at 1:10 scale, the original would be 40*10 = 400cm = 4m. I don't think an articulated hauler with that appearance could be as short as 4m. The smallest CAT, the CAT 725C2, has a length of close to 11m.

So maybe a scale of 1:20 or 1:25 is more accurate for this model?

I also found this, which looks like the same one, but this one is listed as 1:28 scale.

Good find! That 1:28 is the same as that so called "1:10 scale", which is why I was also questioning the length 40cm.
Too good to be true. It would have been a fun project indeed if it was 1:10 or better yet closer to 1:14
