Introducing the next model in our 1:48 scale die-cast lineup is the 988B Wheel Loader. Produced by CCM in two configurations, the 988B will be available equipped with standard tires and general purpose bucket or Beadless tires and heavy duty rock bucket. Standing at just over 3.4″ tall to the top of the cab, 3″ wide, and approximately 8.5″ long, the 988B features realistic center point articulation as well as positionable lift arms and bucket movement, allowing for multiple display positions.
Other details and functionality that demand attention include the sound-suppressed ROPS cab with complete instrumentation, which can be viewed through the opening cab door. The 3408 diesel engine is visible through open engine bays on the standard version, while the Beadless version will come equipped with engine covers.
Both variations of the Cat 988B Wheel Loader will be packaged in a collector quality box with an individually signed and serial-numbered Certificate of Authenticity. Progress photos, production quantities, pricing and delivery information will be updated at the respective links below for each model.

Hi Dean!
The new 988 wheel loader would also be a great candidate for 1:24 scale diecast. Any chance you can persuade Grant and Gary to consider this and/or the 657 scraper?
great model, and good news, I buy both versions it would be great a dumper cat 769c or cat 773B in 1/48 scale
Awesome! Now that you’ve done all the leg work, please come out with a 1:24 version!
Do you deliver to the England U. K. Or do you have a outlet in England. Thank you
I’d also like to jump in here and say that I’d also like to own this model in both 1:48 and 1:24 scales. What a great machine to offer as a miniature.
Great to hear! Question, will the 988B model be equipped with metal / diecast wheels like CCM offered in the past (i.e. 992C), or plastic? Thanks in advance for answerring.
