CX820Joe Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 I managed to pick up a 2009 catalogue in a shop yesterday - I was surprised to see that in it, there is only 1 combine now (The JD S690) and while there is only a photo of an actual FW-60 it says next to it 'All new tooling for actual model' but doesn't say the same for the MF7485 strangely.

FNHIR Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 CX880 and CR980 gone? Not even replaced with CX8080 or CR9080? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 So they are on public release now are they ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ploughmaster Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 This has already been discussed on another thread! Andy posted a pic of the prototype FW60 from the London toyfair, which confirmed that the casting is new. With regard to the combines, the NH CR9080 redecal is out in the US as a dealer edition, so it is probable it will come out here on a 6 month dealer only issue to start with. If that is the case, it won't be in the general toy catalogue until later in the year. The CX880 may well be redecalled as an 8080, we will have to wait and see. A redecal on the Case Axial Flow is a question mark, as the panel work has been altered on the new 'real ones'. I think, in all honesty, the number of combines in the catalogue last year was a bit too much, and most of them had been superseded in reality.

CX820Joe Posted March 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 What I was getting at was that I thought it odd that they stated the FW-60 was a new tooling but didn't for the MF, though its obvious that it will be. Apologies for any confusion caused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robl12 Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 If you look in the April issue of classic tractor there is a write up on the 2009 britians releases. In there it says that they didnt have the prototypes of the MF ready for the london toyfair. But yes in there it say that they are completely new models.

Tellarian Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Nothing of substance, ie proper pictures of the 7230 Fastrac Model as opposed to the real machine, likewise the Farmmaster. Revised 'New' logos on the NH 7060, FW 60 and one or two others that have finally caught up with th program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 well i been a member here since sept 2005 & even then members were banging on about how poor the britains hitches were & all we get to hear is 'it takes time to get things like that sorted' sorted ? should have been left alone in the first place or at least a siku type linkage fitted . Well i hope we won't have to end up butchering our long awaited masseys to fit siku hitches , come on britains RC2 i think 4 years shoud have been enough time , to get a decent hitch / linkage sorted failing that reinstate the older type hitch & i don't mean the awfull centre mounted lift lever , i mean the side mounted one that can be changed if it broke with a simple wheel removal , not a chassis splitting job come on RC2 britains , we've waited long enough regards Mr barrett , SOMERSET (address withheld by request) oh new Massey coming out , ? really ? looking forward to that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
