The X 325 scale model was introduced in the winter of 1994.
Bobcat X 325

It's new design gave this model a distinctly different look from its predecessor the X 225.
The X 325 was also manufactured by Clover and again scale 1/25 was selected.

The model features included: 360° rotation, operational cylinders, rubber tracks.
For the first time in the bobcat scale model history something completely new was introduced:

an opening rear hood, witch contained a replica Kubota /D-1402 engine.

On this engine hood the Melroe logo was present, only to be replaced later on.

Operator seat, joystick handles and steering levers where nice details added to the operator canopy.

By now the box color had changed from red & gold to green & gold.
The Fortune Magazine logo was still printed on the box, because this honor was again received in 1991
