i think that their better than they were, 5 yrs or so back they were shocking and siku was a far better model/toy. Now its going the other way. take the 956/1056 they would of used the same skid unit, the same wheels and so on a few years back , but thats changed. the only thing thats disapointing is their implements range. no new plough thats got to be one of the most used thing on a farm. fold up cultavator is so dated now. just by changing the colour, does it make it better NO. even children are picking up on this now which says something. Qc is something else altogether.

wheels look alot better paul, and i'm thinking a few conversions can be done with this model too

looks better with a driver in the cab.

watching this one paul as this is one of the next models i want.

they had some buildings there too . but like you said its nice to see them stocking some britains there. theres alot of the big farm stuff there too. trouble with going to trago is if her indoors finds out i'm going, the budget for models goes down and the house hold items budget goes up.

another 1056xl and a 956xl from trago £14.99 each almost picked up the mf7480 at £13 maybe next week.

1056xl .steering isn't great but can be improved. will get some more thats for sure. detail is not bad. can see why the price of the ertl one has dropped so much now.

was that newton abbot tim

i saw this mf at toytrac and for £13 its a bargin. was told this first edition will be a collectors item as the next lot will be in the new colours.

well only 2 things for me. a profarms seed drill and a case magnum 190.

i think a good MF loader is very much needed and in time will turn up but i can't see one that detaches in 1/32 , but if they did wow how good would that be. at this rate your going to need a bigger cabernet mark.

think we did this last year or maybe we didn't . but what models /parts/ and other bits will we be after. I will be looking for a protoys drill or something like it. and a grimme spud harvester to chop. what will you be looking out for.

looking forward to your display mike as well as the others.

not having enough dosh for toytrac , too much going out and not enough coming in :'(

same for me and my mate , enjoy the drive up to be honest.

a tong spud grader, think it would make a killing if it was done. And a corn drier of some sort. just would be nice to see a few on layouts with them on. thats what i like with grahams layout he takes to toytrac. makes a nice touch .

cheers for the tip mate

bought a pma32 2wd axle which is now broken with my heavy handed hands :'( :'( :'(

broken jd 8330 with duels . front axle broken will fix it up

may be have a look at last years for help to decide what to do. we had 11 tractors on the veg farm i worked on years back. it could be a small farm which has contractors in for the day. the main thing i think is keep it as real as possible and attention to detail . what ever you do i look forward to seeing it in the flesh.

those row crops look great on that, they look the right size where they look wrong on the mtx175/ttv1160. 8)

the mini toys one's just screw on the front and push together on the rear. the pma 32 ones are abit more tricky you need to make the spacers which can be done with abit of tubing but the are a better wheel all together and they offer 2 sizes like sean said he put his on a wiking john deere and they look very good its on here too somewhere. towse trading (dave) does some as well .oh and paul(PDC) had some too which were a bit wider altogether. mini toys also sell the tecnoma sprayer wheels and i think the rear wheels from the grape havester thingie which i saw on a conversion at toytrac last year on a valtra c in the layout section which looked very good too
