B O R Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 i must say that having studied the pics in this current addition of model tractor of the forthcoming ih and case/ih 956 and 1056 im very much looking forward to them coming....ive been wanting one of these for some time now for display with some of my foragers...i always thought the ertl 956 was too short,more like an 856 to me,also the cab had no 45degree pillar to glaze to and i always avoided it.but now that this models coming and in both liverys,im very excited and have at least 7 period foragers to suit them...so bring them on,i dont even care if i have to modify them in any way,just good to see them coming....

griffithsbros Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 As far as Britains goes this looks good I know its a pre production model but do they realise MF chassis colours are now grey? Have a word Andy before its to late Black went out 18months ago thankfully may sound daft but that could be something to do with licencing? with UH doing a 74 with grey chassis?

PDC Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 may sound daft but that could be something to do with licencing? with UH doing a 74 with grey chassis? It will make life easier if it is black put a PDC resin bonnet on it and hey presto 6480 Dynashift 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ploughmaster Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 later in the year (December) there are 2 international tractors planned and also a case. the inters are a 956XL and a 3588. the case is a 1056XL. they also plan to have the Massey 7580 ready for release in September. According to what Andy has written in the latest 'Model Farmer', there will eventually be both 956XL and 1056XL versions of both the International and Case-IH The International 2+2 will be available in North America as a 3788 for Toy Farmer/National Farm Toy Show (and will be available from some specialist European model dealers, and as a 3588 for general release.

Andy Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 This is of the final production sample of the upcoming 7480 that Massey signed off. Decals have been tidied up and the paint work tidier too. From the last sample I posted, it was pointed out that the paintwork was incorrect. Since Britains had the item signed off from MF, they were unaware of this error so I had to deliver the bad news! It was too late to change since the first production run had been completed but it will be rolled in on the second production run. So a big thanks to those who pointed out the problem and big pat on the back for FTF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Excellent, not long to go now then. Good to know the points raised were taken on too. Well done RC2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Lubbly Jubbly... she looks like a mighty fine model to me Andy... shame about the paint... but it only means that it's not a current model I guess.... thank goodness it wasn't a 7499 though... they are all red and grey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluegreen Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Im glad one of my constructive critisisms has been well recieved for a change and the model will get a grey chassis in the future Not a bad move for Britains as collectors will want both versions wont they Well I decided I was gonna buy a couple of MFs if I could find the pennies this year and after changing my mind a dozen times it will be a limited edition red UH 8680 with the superb trelleborg tyres and one of these hugely promising 7480s As its got a black chassis it will have to be an ex hire 58 reg tractor to fit in maybe might have a 2nd one with grey chassis but that depends on whether MF release new 7600s soon? UH are sure to have a prototype on the go as I type Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 That looks brilliant, well done RC2, looks like Britains might be back! Can't wait to see the IH models now, going by this they're gonna be great. Top marks RC2, judging by the pictures you have every right to be proud of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
