Hey Andy,

Those are really great suggestions for possible variations of the 973, however these configurations have already been finalized. We will add these to our list of collector recommendations, and hopefully will be able to include some of them in future models!

Great suggestion, Brandon! We have been considering a track loader to add to our 1:24 scale Contractor’s Collection Series!

Great model suggestions, Keith! We will certainly keep them in mind on upcoming models, however the configurations for this model have already been finalized.

Glad you like this one, Nico! We have a few more announcements coming out soon that should be exciting as well!

The bucket option would just be icing on the cake if it could be done as an option or even as an additional bucket which could be changed as and when friend on mine has a full size machine which often changes depending loader work or excavation work can,t beat a CCM model the best !

If the smaller machines are challenging to make in 1:48, then feel free to use 1:24 scale… I for one would be buying ๐Ÿ™‚

Many popular Cat machines from the 70’s, 80’s and why not also 90’s are just waiting to get CCM’ized ๐Ÿ˜›

Any chance of getting one in 1:24? A side-dump bucket option would also be great–many of these track loaders (and old 977’s) used side-dumps so you didn’t have to spin to load trucks out of a face.
