BRITAINSMAD

Can anyone give me some info on this model? Looks like its a repo box from early 80s and the cow doesn't resemble Britains livestock from that era. All seems a bit suspicious to me. And then theres the price.... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Britains-Farm-9568-Animal-Transporter-w-Early-Plastic-Cow-Mint-Boxed-Vintage-/281713117711?&_trksid=p2056016.l4276

Yes Neil, the Shawnee Poole dumper set can reach well over £1000. I have seen sets similar to this have sold on eBay in recent years for £1200 - £1300

Just wondering if anyone has applied the Fuller Car System to 1:32 scale and if it was a success? Any pointers you could give me would be gratefully received. Heres what i hope to achieve in a farm scene -

Heres a few of my models, showing the way I like to display them, both boxed and unboxed.

is this not the same seller as the £12,500 lot that was on a few weeks ago??

I have lots of stuff in that condition Ben! If you have something in particular in mind, just drop me a message and hopefully ill be able to help you out. Thanks for checking out the page guys

More models added today. Thanks for the support guys

Im selling this same trade case for £60! £175 seems a bit excessive to me. Id happy if i got it though!

Perhaps im wrong here but to me, the older examples were marketed as 'toys' and the newer examples are 'models'. Britains were always regarded as a play thing whereas the newer tractors shown above are really shelf models and as such, have much more detail are are finished to a much higher standard. The comparative cost of these examples too would a reflection of this. A modern tractor such as the Fendt, Mercedes, Valtra would have a much higher price because of this also, compared to the more affordable Britains model offered for a few pounds upon its release, back in the day. Just my 2c!

Just updated this page today with more items. Please check it out if you are interested in Britains models ;D

Thanks for that Sue! All fixed now
