I like the way you made the bucket instead of using the standard lego bucket piece, which I don't think comes in dark green. Job well done, the only things I might add are changing the colours of the mirrors, and doing all the tiling in light grey or light bley, other then that your golden.

very nice!

It's such a clean design and very true to life! Love the colours and the details you have packed in like the spare tire, transmission, and rear stabilizers.

As mentioned already, that brick built hopper/dumpster is great!

AWESOME just simply AWESOME 'de-marco' - especially the skip bin and loading mechanism - very clever very detailed too ! :grin:

Underbody and front end work are also very good !

Great work 'de-marco' and I'm a conformist! ! :sweet:

One question: How is the spare tire attached?

It looks like de marco has used the good old friction to achieve the effect - it's just this part:

that holds the wheel/tire in place.

I've tried - it holds the whell!

Yeah I've noticed it aswell when I saw the underside, that's neat!

Also, what piece is the light on the roof? Is it one of the older sirenes? I used to have a fire engine and police car which had a battery box and a buttom on the top creating light and sound as a sirene. If I recall right you could place a colored shell over those lights. I had red and blue ones, is this the same part?

edit: spelling..

That's great! :thumbup: I really like your creation de-marco! The bucket mechanism looks very nice and pretty functional.

It's about time we had one of these vehicles in our layouts as an official set. :wub:
