IMC Tadano AC 7.450-1 unboxing

[@The690ELC]

great unboxing for sure my favorite model to come out this year

[@dangandiecast]

Saw the model at their stand at bauma, lovely addition to the Fleet

[@buijs1967]

Nice model, alltough i wished they put some hydrolic hoses on the cylinder, boom and winch.

[@gtpmike2000]

It does look nice can't wait to see it all done up

[@Rosie-pc8ge]

Just bought this one. Looking forward for the Sarens to come out in March. Hopefully that one doesn't have the problems that my 11000 that just came out.

[@cranedude07]

Nice. Yea the 11000 is becoming a disappointment, I'm going to hold out for a spacex version, probably won't come but if not, I'll just repaint it I guess.

[@Lucasthecraneop]

Sup dude, i just got for 2 IMCs the AC 220-5 and the AC 700-9 both in mediaco liveries, im digging em a bunch. This 450 is 🔥 is they drop it in mediaco colors im picking it up for sureee

[@cranedude07]

Nice! The 450 is really nice, those colors look good too

[@lvdrums]

Another awesome model bro! Gotta love Tadanos livery.

[@cranedude07]

Honestly I think I like the weisbauer version of this more but since I have 3 tadano livery models, might as well stick to it. It doesn't look bad, pretty tall model though. Just barely taller than the potain mdt178. I need to get a atf400 now lol, but that will for sure be in ALL colors I think, there is a jib in blue for the tadano livery only but I think the jib looks too toy like for me and like the old ltm1500 jibs, I believe it's mostly plastic also. Well see, maybe one day. Need to save for the ltm1650 and lr11000 now

[@lvdrums]

@@cranedude07 oh yeah weisbauer is a killer livery too...can't blame you for liking it a lot. Bummer about the jib....don't know why they don't make a good one and charge us a little more for the quality. Oh well. Can't wait to see that AC you're getting....my 11000 is on the way.

[@cranedude07]

@lvdrums yea I would rather pay a little more for the quality. But I doubt we will see a jib for this, they haven't made one for the ac700s yet, so I don't see one coming anytime soon. Look forward to your 11000 videos. It looks like a huge model.

[@lvdrums]

@@cranedude07 good thing the ac700 looks killer anyway since a nice jib may not happen. I gotta stop spending all my money on crawlers and nab that 700 too. We've talked about that bad boy before and I'm sold on it. Yeah the 11000 looks pretty big. I'm liking the standard colors for now.

[@cranedude07]

@lvdrums lol yea, the sarens 700 is stunning. Some people have made the ac500 jibs fit on it but I tried and it looked like I would have to do some modification to it to make it fit and since those jibs are almost impossible to find anymore, I'm not going to try it. I think I'm at about 90 crane models now lol. I want a spacex lr11000, but I don't know if I want to hold out and see if nzg makes one or if I want to go thru the hassle of repainting one myself.

[@blood852000]

Hey mate have u puchased the ltm1650?its really a great model to own as i have gotten mine last week

[@cranedude07]

I have not yet. I want to but haven't got the money for it right now. It looks great though

[@bjmxd]

Where do you get your models from, i know wsi sells some and one other distrumibutor and then some ebay but like pristine legit sellers cus i forgot the name of the side but i wanna say diecastmasters or another website used to sell alot and then shut down or prob filed for bankrupcy and hasnt been the same since i bought my 4100 tower crane

[@cranedude07]

I get them from several different places online, just depends which one has it in stock or cheaper. But mainly dhsdiecast.com, weissbrothers.us, 3000toys.com, or even the manufacturer like liebherr, link belt, manitowoc, have online shops they sell them from. Sometimes they are also cheaper too.

[@themarvman2ut415]

I want a model crane so BADDD. Iv been starring down the LTR 1220 but ITS JUST TOO DANG EXSPENSIVE. I looked everywhere to see if i can get a better price but was unsuccesful.

[@dannestrum3277]

you are not alone in this, I want one myself but it will take a while 😥

[@royherring622]

Looks like you have 3 rail O scale in the back ground

[@cranedude07]

I do. With a few trains. Nothing special. I had them when I was a kid, before I knew crane models existed

[@gamingborger]

what do you do to get as close to cranes as you do? cuz it's awesome

[@cranedude07]

I am an oiler in the operating engineers union. I get to help assemble/disassemble them, and when setup, I stay with it to help the operator, watch swing radius, watch tracks when crawling, make sure nothing is leaking, grease and fuel the crane, all the crane op has to do is run it. Sometimes I fill in when he has to use the restroom or wants a short break. I love it

[@Brian-gw6di]

Another one to add to the never ending list of crane models I want 😁 The LR11000 in Sarens ,LTM 1650 the two new Grove cranes I still need to pick up a LTM 1250 as well and countless others. I don't even have the room any more 😁

[@Brian-gw6di]

Would love to see a review video of this model all put together as well as some of the other new cranes you have purchased

[@NiteCrawlerNYC]

Awesome!!!
