Looks like to be a competitor to premacon so i suppose about the same. Maybe various prices on various models - base, base + pack 1 etc.


no doubt he will judge reactions from the show and determine demand and price. of course he already knows of a price, its just about how much more you can get


when i saw it earlier today i was meh, but now it is growing on me

Another nice machine from Frank. It's good to see him release something a little smaller then his first excavators. A little more practical for smaller operations! How come we haven't seen or heard much about his Komatsu WA500-6? It's been released, and you can buy it now, but there seems to be very little information (no builds) or video footage of it on the web.

Frank told me the reach was 1100mm (300mm less than JD/Hitachi) and 44 lbs is certainly more reasonable to cart around.

Thanks for posting, Its great to finally see after hearing all about it from Joe. And its half the weight of the Vario, which Joe complains about is so heavy... Maybe this is more your size Joe. Easier to carry up and down those stairs?

Id like to see a picture of it next to a 1/14 Truck to get a feel for the size. I wonder how powerful the arm is? Id like to get an excavator that is a tad smaller than the Vario, which im still seriously considering, just for the ability to load a dump truck and be able to move dirt around in the box without destroying the truck like Godzilla... Godzilla=Vario.

CDM, you crack me up, Damitz " we might sell you one, eventually....." lol. You are not kidding.
The 490 looks nice and I'm sure it will be strong, I just hope it's gonna be offered with some more scale and detail add ons, as of now it looks like diet food in my opinion.

I noticed that now Fank decided on metal tracks for the komatsu. The model looks beautiful and I wondering what kind drive system he put on it. Would be nice see it with some hydraulic motors.
