Am looking forward to this release. It wasnt in the recent catalogue but it does appear to be due at some point. (Photo pinched from Farm Models NL) -

I loved the feature with the Valtras from the same area too, I love landmarks like that and power station cooling towers. -

Whilst it's nice to see the rarer makes, that top photo with Emley Moor in the background is fabulous David, great to see, keep them coming. -
It was in the local WH Smith's (Shrewsbury)

I've seen some photos of one compared to a Wiking 770, massive thing! -

What's your latest farm/Construction buy in 2021
CX820Joe replied to robbo's topic in General Hobby Discussion
Last 2 purchases for a while, thanks to Andy B. Weise Fendt 308 for the mixed farm, and 514C for the arable side. -
I was deliberating over the gen 2 716, but got the Gen 1 instead, and thought it plus the 415 and 818 were a decent line up. I've got a Ros 720 but one of the mirrors sheared off so its in the scrap line now. I'm not keen on the UH model so given up bothering about a current 700 series now. I've seen the Weise 816 might be reappearing shortly but as I am always chopping and changing my stuff I'm going to keep what I have with no new addition for 3 months now. The 2 I am waiting for should finish the fleets off nicely.

I'm going to fit part of the arable farm on top of this small chest of drawers but I'll get a piece of board and hopefully have the buildings on it, depending how much room they take up. Most of the tractor fleet is here, you could call it overkill farm as they are all 240hp+, though am waiting for a couple more tractors, one for each farm to finish them off. There are still some other tractors squirreled away, mainly Valtras, the big Fendt 1000 doesnt have a place at the moment but that may change as I've some changes in mind for it.

No Phil, from left to right is an 818, 716 gen 1 with hedge cutter and 415 on the feeder wagon

Have the use of this small space for displaying a few models, this is the livestock/mixed farm fleet, with contractors Fendt 942 and Joskin tanker visiting. Early days...will set something up with the arable kit too at some stage.

All these posts are fabulous David but I particularly like that pairing, and I'm not a huge JD fan. Liked those though, and I really would love to see a 750 drill in model form. -
Well it was nothing spectacular but a New Holland with an accord drill about to start some evening drilling and there was a pivot steer Manitou standing by with the seed bags. Nice to see some field work again.

I think that catalogue has been hastily put together somehow - there is an Imants spading machine due from UH and that isn't in the catalogue either. -

This also arrived today, I did have one before but sold it, but nothing else attaches as well to my Joskin Volumetra tanker so got another. -

Never seen any 900s except the 2007 type around my way. Have the 926 TMS (02-07 model), I think that is my favourite style of the 900 series. -

I did, and sold it without removing it from the box. Stupid thing to do really! -

They are the best manufacturer I think. Its the 2nd version - earlier one was a 926. -

Some good offers there to be had! How does it work then, do you still get the list price, seller pays discounted price and ebay pays the rest?

Good find there mate, must keep an eye out for one. There was one which I nearly bought but looked to be quite rough condition.
