the other green Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Well now..... went to a toy show which was a bit of a bust, only bought a Britains Case Magnum 305 with the gold hood, used to be in a set with an articulated 4WD too but the 4WD was sold. The 305 was a fiver. Can't go wrong. The day before, I bought from a mate who is downsizing his collection, the following Britains models, all unboxed : Alfa Laval slurry tanker Lely hay turner Blue transport box Muledozer Kverneland 8 furrow plough County 1884 Yellow version The County and the plough are mint and the rest are gently played with. To even find these models in Canada is a rarity, never mind in such good condition. Prices agreed upon were fair but leaning to a good deal for me, he may have done better on eBay but he wanted to sell them to someone who he knew who was going to add to his collection, not to sell them on. He thinks he might even have the box for the County and will send it to me if he finds it. A very decent chap I'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FordTractorCrazy Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 thank you Erik, still missing a couple of the 1:16 Versatiles, but those sure make a big hole in my wallet. I got this from the Dutch "marketplace" for a steal as they normally go for over 250 dollars on ebay and i payed half your TTT model looks quite stunning. And it definately fits very well with your main collection too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbo Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Cool Mike, have you got any pictures? Oh alright then you have persuaded me ;) ;) First off the outer box, I wouldn't normally post pictures of the box but this was quite interesting as it has the details of the initial dealer that it was supplied to There is then an inner box, front and back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Then on to the model itself, it is quite heavy for such a small model, about the size of the UH MF135 or Fordson Major but heavier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Well Mark in my opinion the box is the best bit. The tractor is too chuncky in places and not one for me I'm afraid..each to ones own though ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tractor Twitcher Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 An unusual one just arrived from the USA. Ertl International Farmall 300 in 1/32 scale, collectors edition and stamped 1 of 7500 Very nice find Mike, especially stamped number one of a run. I quite like the chunky vintage models Ertl have produced in the past. I might just have to keep a beady eye out for one of those to keep this 350 I have company. I found it lurking on a second hand stall at Pickering Steam Rally a few years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I was leaving a guy walked in and said to Graham "One of everything that's new in"....I reckon that will be the best part of 7-800 quids worth!
