Les Miniatures du Faubourg (MDF) is maker from series of exclusive range of small construction equipment, civilian trucks and army vehicles. They strive passionately to develop and produce models for enthusiasts and collectors of this unique scale models.

Their latest creation, and for me a pleasant surprise, at the very end of 2011, the DJB D550 Articulated Dump Truck in 1:50 scale.

NZG intended to release this model in their next series DJB D275 and DJB D300 Articulated Dump Trucks. There came only a handbuild model, which as you see on this rare photograph, helps David Brown in discussion with its engineer behind the drawingboard, but finally it was unfortunately never put into production. The reason I have so far not been able to trace. Do you know more? Then I hope to hear more from you

Now more than 25 years later, the largest Articulated Dump Truck from DJB finally made it ??as a scale model! The scale model made by Les Miniatures du Faubourg is mostly made ??of resin and is built available for the price of 240,- Euros.

A must have for every collector. Curious?
