Claaspower Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Excellent idea alright but am I right in thinking they would have to have the machine in front of them to check it, as in it's not like a tracking device? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leakeyvale Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Sadly a lot of logos etc are now copyrighted and subject to licence. A classic case is the Ferrari badge. There is a model collectors club for Ferrari fanatics that has a magazine for members, They always had the Ferrari logo on the front page - what else? They were told by Ferrari (after many years) that they had to buy a licence to use it. Very short-sighted of Ferrari but guess how much... ...£50,000! (Yes that is fifty thousand) RAF roundels are now also subject to licence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Ferguson Posted February 11, 2012 Author Share Posted February 11, 2012 This is a huge issue, Sue. I notice a lot of sellers putting JD, MF etc decals on eBay and one Dutch company sells the whole range. If anyone from those manufacturers spots them at best they'll get a warning, at worst a huge fine. This is one of the reasons we stopped putting tractor manufacturer decals on our stuff (like most people, I couldn't see why it would be a problem when it was only a small quantity). We were warned by a couple of people that a little while back a guy who made JD conversions was fined and had to cease trading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Ferguson Posted February 14, 2012 Author Share Posted February 14, 2012 Just an update. The electrics pack, aluminium ladder and oil tank will be available in approx 2 weeks' time. My regular sculptor has now started the rest of the wild animals set (he'd already made the fox), so we should be able to incorporate birds, rabbits and foxes into our dios Alan Caton (our ex Britains sculptor and the guy who made the foxhounds), is now working on this year's new figures and they should be available by the end of April.

Lady Ferguson Posted February 14, 2012 Author Share Posted February 14, 2012 This was the first thing that came into my head too but will they be suitable? They crows will be suitable for sitting on top of the telegraph poles, but there wasn't any way I could think of to make small, lightweight sparrows that could sit on the lines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catkom3 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 How about Pheasant's and Lesser Black backed Gull's,you can't go near a field being ploughed without seeing loads of them,preferably with a pin hole through the Gull's,so you could suspend them from thin fishing line, Regards Joe.
