People have a right to say whatever they want about an item. I understand your comment, but how does saying a tire is on backwards improve the product? The photo we are discussing was taken from another website and put onto this website. Should I have complained about someone using my image without approval? So anyone can say negative things about our product... I guess I'm only supposed to have a positive attitude... Double standard? I'm done.

I will accept any constructive criticism. I don't feel a comment about a tire being on backwards to be constructive criticism. This happens to be the first shots from the tooling. There are going to be issues and things that need to be fixed. We'll get it fixed. Bill

I guess I won't post pictures of new items on any website if all anyone can do is moan about a tire being put on backwards. Bill Walters

Yes, the Allis Chalmers deal was dropped. Never produced. Bill

This should be moved to the "Scale Models" section. Ertl is not producing this unit. Bill

I have asked Ebay to remove it. Bill

We have just posted our 2011 John Deere catalog on our website (www.ertl.com). This shows all our new items for the first six months of 2011. Bill

What is the difference in the SG cab vs. the U.S. cab? I'm sorry, we haven't announced what our new Precision line will be yet. Bill

The tractor should start shipping in early December. It has all the normal Precision detail including opening cab door, opening engine side panels, separate front weights, 3-point hitch detail, diecast rims, etc... Bill

What do you want to know?

How are you getting your models? I am not aware of anyone in China who had these models. Bill

I've looked around the offices and haven't found one yet. I'll keep looking. Bill

Going forward we are using the "pin" on the hitch to make it compatible with all the other 1/32nd tractors. The 9430T has the pin where our 9630T had an "authentic" looking hitch. Bill

Tell me again why I should answer this question? You know how us Americans like our secrets.... Bill

I don't recall anyone commenting that we were coming out with new AGCO toys in late 2009? Are you sure you're not thinking about Scale Models? Bill
