The Mustang II is a Mustang too!
If a kitty bats one of these across the floor, would that qualify as a cat-powered CAT?

Nice! I remember MBX did a small series of well detailed CAT equipment, mostly in two packs, some of which I've not seen done again. Unfortunately, time has not been kind to the packaging on the ones I have, the blisters clouded and darkened very bad, so I had no choice but to liberate them. There is a soil compactor in that series, and a piece of harvesting equipment I'm not familiar with and don't recall the name, but those are the highlights from that set for me...one hit wonders, extremely scarce. Several models in that series were placed in more than one "action pack," and some playsets as well (I didn't find any of the playsets). This dump truck and a road roller were the two in that series that I recall were issued in more than one set or pack. I don't even recall where I have mine put away, and I don't have all of them from the series, but the first two I mentioned were the best of the bunch in my opinion...and this dump truck is no slouch either.
