justy 46 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Hope ye lot dont end up with a scale 1-87 or a Siku !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegreen Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I bought one a few days ago and kept quiet until I received it just in case it was a siku, but its a wiking 7430 alright, hence me buying another today! They must have bought a job lot that they couldn't shift at £50 and decided to sell them quick, cheap as chips ...........or the Saturday part timer priced them all up wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Replicagri Fiat 550 and 550 DT and the new Britains/Tomy Case IH Magnum 380 CVX. Is that the long delayed wheeled version, Niels? Who is selling it, I haven't seen it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 A Valtra N143 Unlimited from the Valtra shop, they have turned some up it seems - reduced to £43ish plus P&P. Seem to remember them going for £70+......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Is that the long delayed wheeled version, Niels? Who is selling it, I haven't seen it yet. Yes wheeled Joe, I haven't seen the tracked one yet. I bought mine from Tractor Connection as it's on my doorstep: http://www.tractorconnection.nl/productinformatie/C1C3801/Tractor-Connection/Trekkers/Case-IH-Magnum-380-CVX. he didn't knew when the tracked one will arrive. It is much nicer than the previous Magnums that Britains did. Roof all metal now as well not plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the tracked one is an Ertl special? That was the most recent one I had seen on G&M's site. I am planning to get the Siku 340 but think this will have to go on the list as well. Wonder when it will be out here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be right there Joe. The Rowtrac version is listed in the US as the '2015 Farm Show' and has the text printed on the roof. Sadly the row spacing is very wide so you'd need to narrow it down. Row crops on the front as well. I compared the 380 to the Siku 340 but didn't like the Siku tyres or the chunky front hitch. You'd need to remove that to do it justice. Saying that, the Magnum 380's tyres are far from wonderful and I am planning to replace them as soon as I have found out HOW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I've got a front weight for the SIku Magnum - the wheel rims could do with some paint too. The Spalding 290 is much better than the 340, but hard to find now. The 380 does look nicely detailed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your right there Niels,those row crops are a helluva width,not keen on cab top logo's either, Regards Joe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Palmer Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 a pair of siku front axion tyres and bring in the rear track width should sort it out,and some nail varnish remover to take the lettering off the roof,unless they are going to do a uk version? also you have the yank rear lights,yuk, a uk version would be much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valley Axe Man Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 After a call with Andy at Classic over weekend, I've purchased a Quickfencer to accompany my recently arrived Parmiter post knocker, and discussed the possibility of the supply of a pair of 16.9 x 30's for a project I have in mind No pic of the 16th scale Quickfencer yet but here a link to the OEM website.... built and designed only 15 mins away from me http://www.quickfencer.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or replace the front axle with one from the normal Magnum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
