I'm always looking for new PoweredbyCat scale models to add to my collection. The Oshkosh HEMTT variants have also been on my wish list for a number of years because these trucks are powered 1:1 by a Caterpillar C15 ACERT Diesel engine.

• Oshkosh M1142 8x8 Tactical Fire Fighting Truck (TFFT)

I recently discovered a number of different Oshkosh HEMTT variants in scale 1:144; 1:87 and 1:72th on eBay at 3D Hobby Master (seller dunax_5087) from China. They are printed as 3D Kits under the name ZEUS MODEL. When I asked the seller whether these 3D kits could also be printed in scale 1:48th, the answer was positive! Interested? You can choose from different scales and different HEMTT variants and order them directly on eBay with free shipping from China.       

I have just ordered the 3D kit of the Oshkosh M1142 8x8 Tactical Fire Fighting Truck (TFFT) in 1:48th scale. #EXCITING
