Scale model for collectors

The DieCast Masters CAT M316D Wheel Excavator is a 1/50 scale diecast replica aimed at adult collectors of construction vehicle models. It features a detailed interior and exterior, a 360-degree rotating superstructure, movable boom and outriggers, and includes a detailed operator figure seated in the cab. The model is constructed primarily from diecast metal with some small plastic parts. It arrives brand new in distinctive Core Classics Series packaging with a window box and protective PVC blister inside a cardboard outer box.

Check display space and handling needs

Before ordering, verify that your display area can accommodate the model's approximate dimensions of 6 inches in length, 2.25 inches in width, and 3.125 inches in height. The moving boom, outriggers and rotating chassis require enough clearance to operate without contacting adjacent items. Because the model contains small plastic parts and articulated components, it is intended for adult collectors rather than rough play. Ensure the unbleached cardboard window box and moulded PVC blister packaging style suits your storage or display preferences.

Materials and durability in normal use

The diecast metal construction provides a substantial feel and durable finish for shelf display, while the small plastic parts allow finer detailing on moving elements. In normal display conditions the model generates no noise, draws no power and produces no heat. The articulated boom, outriggers and 360-degree rotation are designed for occasional manual operation; frequent handling may loosen joints over time. The Core Classics Series window box and outer cardboard box offer protection during storage and transport.

Questions about this item

Does the box include the operator figure or must it be purchased separately?

The model comes with a detailed operator already seated in the cab, so no separate figure is required.

Is the Core Classics Series the only version of this M316D wheel excavator available in 1/50 scale?

This listing is for the Core Classics Series edition, which replaces the earlier Norscot item 55171 and features the distinctive unbleached cardboard window box.

How much does the boom actually move once the model is on a shelf?

The boom raises and lowers, the outriggers raise and lower, and the superstructure rotates a full 360 degrees on the chassis.
