The Caterpillar d11T "Big Blue"Dozer in 1:50th scale was released by Custom Originals Australia in 2024 with #85565B.
Custom Originals Australia, based in Mandurah, Australia is specialized Caterpillar diecast metal scale models made by Diecast Masters, Caterpillar plastic toys, Caterpillar ride on toys and Caterpillar assembly type toys. They are very proud and excited to be releasing the first of many Limited Models that Custom Originals Australia will be introducing to the market over the next years!!
This Caterpillar D11T Dozer does exsist in 1:1 and was delivered by WesTrac to BHP. The impressive Caterpillar D11T 105,000 tonnes Dozer, nicknamed "Big Blue", has been delivered to BHP to operate in a mine site in the Pilbara.
Why painted BLUE? Good question: to support the Beyond Blue organisation! The Beyond Blue Support Service gives every person in Australia the opportunity to talk through their concerns with a trained mental health professional. People who access the service can receive a brief one-on-one counselling session to address an immediate concern, as well as receive information and advice on continuing to seek support. Catmodels.com donated AU $10,- from the purchase of every Caterpillar D11T BLUE model to Beyond Blue!
So a MUST HAVE and you will support Beyond Blue!
