Matchbox Real Working Rig Pierce Velocity Tower Ladder

Hands down best RWR to date--and quite a heavy metal model!! For 5 bucks, AMAZING DETAIL, but has anyone scaled it out? To me, it looks like the bucket is too small.....am I imagining things? In any event, I LOVE IT and will collect this model in every livery it is issued!! Maybe my favorite MB car ever.......It's definitely a top 3! Crisp graphics too!

I don't know how to properly scale out a model, but if anyone does (and I know you guys here do!), can you post the results.

Buy this model when you find it, it will quickly become a favorite.....

You are right that the basket/platform is too small. But I agree with your other comments it's a very good truck model

Just found my first one at a local Target. Excellent looking model! Have to agree this is one of the best. Also found the all white top mount Pierce Dash in the normal Matchbox line-up.

It is a great piece....the RWR series has some nice pieces in it--emergency and construction particularly....
