LEGO Volvo FMX Tipper Truck - a photo on Flickriver

ReBrickable

I tried my hand at Volvo's construction truck, the FMX. This time I went for a smaller scale, 1:45 which should be around minifigure scale.

The model features articulated suspension, allowing for some excellent posing and the bucket can be raised. For the rest it is really a display model. Note the detailed exhaust aftertreatment system closely resembling the real thing.
I'm considering building some other Volvo models in this scale though I anticipate an FH to be quite the challenge.

I've uploaded building instructions at ReBrickable.
