Hello all,
Just recovering from the Open House madness around here. We are just about cleaned up and now our landlord has ripped up the cement behind our warehouse blocking both of our delivery dock doors. Of course, this was without warning us! Oh well...
Just heard that our HET Model delivery will be here this week! Get your orders in for this model as it is certain to sell out quickly as it did last time! Order Your HET Model
Some info we just received from TWH that you should know about regarding delivery of models:
- Manitowoc 31000 -
TWH Collectibles, in cooperation with Manitowoc Cranes, is finalizing the
design of the Manitowoc 31000 concurrent with real machine testing. In
addition, TWH has transitioned the 31000 project over to the factory partner
that has produced all of the Manitowoc crawler cranes for TWH
previously.....also the same factory as the Mammoet PTC model. We are
confident that this decision will yield a more quality product once
complete, consistent with the detail and accuracy of the tooling model which
debuted in March of this year. Current ship date is Q1 of 2012 and further
updates will be released if this date will change.
- P&H 4100XPC -
The next batch of XPC models is scheduled to leave Hong Kong August 15, for
arrival in the US in mid-September. Each factory shipment will include
150-300 pieces and be proportionally distributed to P&H and TWH Tier 1
distributors by preorder timing and quantity. TWH expects all XPC orders to
be filled by the end of the year.
- Pierce Velocity HAL - Frisco -
Priority shipping is currently underway for the Pierce Velocity HAL - Frisco
model. Pierce Mfg and Frisco Fire Department will receive their units first,
with shipments to follow to satisfy all preorders. The first Pierce Ladder
truck by TWH has been receiving excellent reviews and will assuredly be
worth the wait.
- Pierce Velocity PUC - Miami Dade and DFW -
TWH Collectibles regrets the current delay of the much anticipated Miami
Dade and DFW pumpers. Significant tooling complications during the tooling
modification stage has necessitated retooling for both projects. A revised
ship date is forthcoming.
- Grove GMK 4 and 5 axle Hydraulic Cranes -
TWH has received approvals from all companies regarding their respective
model decoration. TWH anticipates production beginning early next month with
all units shipping in the month of November...just in time for holiday
delivery.
That's it for now. Will get some pics up from Open House soon. Also - watch this space for new specials for blog readers!!
Thanks!
Chuck
