And not forgetting the Quadtrac - also very nice tracks....notice some similarities. Rear hitch detail, whilst not 100% authentic, is a nice step forward. The articulation point is fantastically detailed....but then I guess it should be for £90....

The need to re-mortgage aside, these are both lovely models. Let's hope that a blue New Holland T9 version also makes an appearance set on some nice wheels and I understand there is a wheeled version of the CR9090 to come at some point to.

Well I have the E R T L Case IH STX 450 precision,and from the pictures I've seen so far the Universal Hobbies 600 Quadtrac seem's to give it a run for it's money,mind you it is nine years old now,maybe do a comparison,once I get the 600.

I'm guessing, based on the large number of similarities and common parts that a CaseIH 9230 combine on tracks might also be possible for UH? How similar are the real machines (externally at least - I appreciate the NH has twin rotors and the Case just one)? I know the cab (but not roof), engine, track units are the same and structurally they look pretty similar (e.g. The unloading spout and mounting looks the same).

Could be a nice follow up release for 2013 for UH - and they're lovely machines in real life.

Thanks for posting the pics...both models look amazing. I will wait for the wheeled CR9090 I think although the tracked one is also very tempting! I was always reasonably satisfied with the Britains CR but since seeing the UH model I can hardly bring myself to look at the Britains one now!

There is a lot more metal in the UH v the Norev which I guess is the trade off on the trolley. The Norev is also 30 pounds more expensive. But the Schuco MF/Fendt came a trolley but I guess wheels are cheaper to make.
