Manitowoc, Wisconsin, USA - TWH Collectibles, in partnership with Manitowoc Model Shop, introduced today the Manitowoc 16000 Executive Edition 1:50 scale model. With the limited edition model 555 now sold out, this is the most compact 1:50 scale lattice-boom crawler crane in the current Manitowoc fleet.

“The Executive Edition 16000 was developed in order to accommodate desk top display of an already exceptional museum-class model,” said Nicholas Neumann, Vice President of Sales and Marketing with TWH Collectibles. “At 34 inches in height, it is the perfect size for showcasing Manitowoc in any environment.”

Functions and features of the Manitowoc 16000 include key-operated working boom, rotating carbody, functioning tracks, removable counterweights, photoetch catwalk and stairs, and swing guards with caution tape.

The Manitowoc 16000 Executive Edition includes a real machine product guide, tool kit and Manitowoc branded box.
