Here at long last are the snowplough blade pics, Bill.  Light has been so scarce here recently that I eventually decided to take them using flash.

Excellent! Thank you Gordon! I'm going to get one to see if I can temporarily adapt it to the bulldozer! I hope the new part numbers duckman gave me are still available too!

Hi  :elf:

It really is too bad Playmobil did not make this part similar to the old ones . We could mount the blade on any vehicle with the front mount. I would have put it on my parts list and added it to a few other vehicles and snow cats.  It really is something that made playmobil stand out for me how so many parts were interchangeable. I bought this new UNI-mog truck and did not know how the blade mounted untill now . I really like the little guide wheels it has. I have yet to open it and now that I want to I have to remember where I hid it.

I am surprised the white dozer parts are still available . I had never tried to order any thinking there was no way there would be anything left. I have always wanted a white dozer. The blue rims are a bit weird but I sure like the white .



   Thanks for the pics Gordon  :wow:

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Hi Ras,
Don't bother trying to order the white bulldozer parts from USA DS, they told me they were all discontinued except for the 30040330 black pins, & handles, & H/L's. I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news  :(!

BTW, Where did you find the picture of the 30043920 snow cat plow blade?

Hi Bill  :elf:

   I really did not get my hopes up. I was quite surprised to hear they may be in. I have been looking for the dozer for years. They rarely show up on auction sites in the US. With my patience I figure Playmobil will introduce a new larger one w/ROPS  that will be better.

The picture came from Heather's DB under the theme "Winter Fun" set # 3469 . When I looked again I noticed another version with out teeth that has the guide wheels.

Okay, I see what you're talking about! I currently have the retired 3454 snowplow set, but not the new 4046 set yet!

The blade you showed with the teeth, Ras, is from the snow grader, used to level the snow on the piste at ski resorts.  The set with the yellow Unimog (3454) I've just bought on eBay.co.uk.  Not complete, it lacks a flag and one of the guide posts, but these are available for the 4046 snowplough.  I've also adapted the snowplough blade from the 4046 to fit the construction Unimog, http://collectobil.com/catalogue/items/3755.htm.  I'll try and post some pics to show how I did it today.
