CaDA’s CLAAS Dominator 370 and the Xerion 5000 Trac TS are possibly the best things to ever happen to fans of agricultural machines. But reality hits hard. Not everyone has the space or the money for such glorious building sets. This is where the CaDA CLAAS Farming Series comes in.
The series comprises three CLAAS machines: the Dominator 370 combine harvester, the Arion 660 tractor, and the Scorpion 756 telehandler (telescopic handler). CaDA continues its collaboration with CLAAS to offer brick-built models of the German agricultural machinery manufacturer’s popular agricultural machines that are more shelf- and wallet-friendly. Keep going for a brief look at each model.
CaDA CLAAS Dominator 370 C65014W
The C65014W uses 345 pieces to recreate one of CLAAS’s long-running Dominator series of agricultural machines. When completed, the 27.8 cm long, 22.7 cm wide, and 13.6 cm tall (~10.94 in × 8.94 in × 5.35 in.) brick-built Dominator 370 combine harvester is not relegated to being just a display model. Kids (or you) can imagine the harvest process with various play features, including a top grain tank that opens and closes, a functional cutterbar, a steering knob for maneuvering the majestic agricultural machine, and a deployable grain unloading auger.
CaDA CLAAS Arion 660 C65015W
The C65015W boasts 448 pieces that faithfully recreate the CLAAS Arion 660, featuring functional steering and a detachable trailer that has opening mudguards. It is scaled with the other two machines, allowing you to fulfill your desire to “operate” a proper miniature brick-built agriculture farm. Wheat—or whatever you are planning to “grow”—is not included, and neither is the land (probably it would be your shelves). When completed, the CaDA CLAAS Arion 660 stretches 35.6 cm long, is 10.4 cm wide, and 12.2 cm tall (~14.02 in × 4.09 in × 4.80 in.).
CaDA CLAAS Scorpion 756 C65016W
Like the C65014W and C65015W, the Scorpion 756 C65016W is not just nice to admire as a display unit; it also has some level of playability. It has functional four-wheel steering, a functional boom that goes up and down as well as extends, plus a functional bucket. The set has 401 pieces and measures 26.4 cm long, 12 cm wide, and 17.6 cm tall (~10.39 in × 4.72 in × 6.93 in.) when completed.
