Tractorman810 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 so more than likely we'll get the new NH and Case balers later this year in the britains boxes \ course we will, can't blame them can you, 1 model sells world wide, just swap the box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FNHIR Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 The NH one will be yellow over here. When are they going to pull their fingers out and bring out CNH round balers though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Second that but not if it's anything like the JD one from years past. A nice BR would definately come my way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ploughmaster Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 That does actually look quite good . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FNHIR Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 The yellow and blue decals look out of place on the red baler though, the yellow one looks far nicer. Looks to be same body as the BB960A? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ploughmaster Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Agreed, I like the yellow better, but they still use red across the ditch. Looks to be same body as the BB960A? Have another look at a BB960A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi6920 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 To mee it looks like the same chassis but has updated body work.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FB Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 mmm is it just be or has that gone backwards from the first ones?? it looks a bit sand box finish to me ?? not sure Sean, i remember someone saying they were big models anyway when the 1st ones were released, slightly oversized and not quite 1:32?? Can someone confirm that? anyway its Ertl....has the swing hitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 it may well be slightly oversize, like the jd's with removable loaders they did,but if thats going to get swapped box wise and sold in the uk, its pretty naff compaired to the old ones, not to much detail, very poor looking finish to?? itacky looking, looks the sort of toy i would find in a pound shop almost,unlike the last ones, which actually looked pretty good to me, even though i dont own one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathan Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 is there a case version ? would say a yellow version would look better and alot cheaper than the UH balers would say its a good kids toy really and i think a round baler would of been a better route Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ploughmaster Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 is there a case version ? Yes, there will be. would say a yellow version would look better and alot cheaper than the UH balers This is the Ertl (US) version. These balers are still sold in red in the US. There will probably be a European release later in the year which will be yellow. would say its a good kids toy really Errr, yes. A toy is exactly what it is designed to be. That is why it is less detailed and less expensive than Universal Hobbies. and i think a round baler would of been a better route I would say that large square balers are more common (particularly in the US), and to a great extent, the toys produced are governed by what the OEMs want. Obviously NH wanted this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ploughmaster Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 To mee it looks like the same chassis but has updated body work.... That is not unusual, and as the real thing is mainly based on the old model, I don't see why it should need a new chassis I think you hit the nail bang on the head there From the pics I have seen, there isn't a lot of 'detail' on the real thing.

Tractorman810 Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 i really hope rc2 dont just use that as a new latest version for us euro buyers, that would do them no good what so ever, the current ones are very nice compaired to that ,we all know what they are like for reboxing a us model and selling it over here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ploughmaster Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 TM810 - here's a pic of the real thing. Would you mind explaining exactly what is wrong with the toy in comparison? Ertl will obviously produce toys that are geared towards the US . That is their biggest market. These balers are available in Europe too, albeit in a different colour scheme. The toy will be released in yellow when/if it comes to Europe. I cannot see the problem here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 well clearly i seem to have rubbed your back up with my comments ?? do you work for rc2 or something ??? every time somebody expresses a negative or slightly negative view on a rc2 model you go all defensive to me, its not as good as the previous nh or case baler, they look far more finished in apperance, a bit more thought has gone into the finish,the extra detaling on them, this looks more shinny and plastic than them??the additive tank looks lumpy ?? although they are on real ones, it seems to be a victim of the credit crunch in its finish. its hard to explain from just pics, but its a very US looking toy,prehaps its just the camera flash on the plastic? put the old and new together side by side and i bet you the older one is better finished we all know rc2 are capable of far better than this at the end of the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FNHIR Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 I have to agree with ploughmaster, this is a prototype after all, there often seems to be a tendency to write off an RC2 model immediately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ploughmaster Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 well clearly i seem to have rubbed your back up with my comments ?? do you work for rc2 or something ??? every time somebody expresses a negative or slightly negative view on a rc2 model you go all defensive I have no connection with RC2 whatsoever. It just rattles my cage that every time a pic of a new Ertl or Britains release is posted on this site, certain people immediately rip it to bits, when much of the criticism is unjustified, and could in any case, be expressed in rather less antagonistic terms. We used to get regular previews of upcoming models from Bill Walters, and the same sort of aggressive criticism tended to surface each time. Some time ago he posted a pic of something new and it attracted what amounted to little short of a tirade of abuse from some posters, and from his subsequent post, I felt Bill was clearly taken aback and certainly offended (he was after all only trying to help us by giving a preview of what was at the time a prototype). He certainly still looks at the forum from time to time, but we don't get the input from him that we used to, which is to the detriment of the forum IMO. Constructive criticism is useful, but I have to say that I can't really see that this baler looks poor by comparison with the old one.

Lord Ferguson Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 and could in any case, be expressed in rather less antagonistic terms. I think that's a two-way street that you are also driving up at times Ploughmaster... I agree with your comments regarding Bill Waters, however.. I think you need to remember that we are not all literary geniuses and to this end, some people find it more difficult to express themselves and their thoughts on models than others here. All this sniping is not good for the general 'peace and harmony' of FTF - lets keep it calm and try to respect others views however much you disagree with them at times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 i certainly have not slated the thing ploughmaster, i just expresend my views on the item, this afterall a free country,i just feel going by that pic that it looks tacky to me, orehaps its just the way the pics taken, but going by that pic its not as good as the old one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Well to me it good to see some fresh air blowning through the forum......may have a little stink to it but we been through it before always moved past it........In the end we each will make our own decision regardless of what some of you say...........I just dont see a problem with air something out....hardly out of hand.......
