Can’t believe I’ve never heard of yaxon. I’ve definitely seen the odd unboxed one but didn’t realise they were yaxon. Are they very rare or valuable ? Sure we have the same buffalo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbo Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I do like the Yaxon models, the Same versions were also available in dealer boxes although I confess that I hadn't seen the Same Galaxy in the box that Andy has posted above. Is that for sale Andy or is in your Dad's collection? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure we have the same buffalo The Same Buffalo is probably the most common one, a boxed example tends to make around £25. The Galaxy 170 is rarer and I have seen these make upwards of £75. There is also a Same Trident 130 which is basically the Buffalo with different decals although it comes that way from the manufacturer and is not a conversion. That one again is quite rare and can make close to £100 for a boxed version. There is also the Same Tiger 100 and that usually goes over £100. There are then 2 versions of the Buffalo with a front loader. One with a metal loader and another with a blue plastic loader. Sean and David will tell you that I have been scouring the shows with their help for the last few years to get the loader versions and finally managed to get the metal one, so far the blue plastic version has eluded me 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 Mike, they're from a collection that just came in so destined for auction. The model unfortunately is not great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There actually nice looking models. I take it there a few years old. I know the buffalo we have isn’t bad at all and I’ve always thought of detailing one further. Not seen anything like the one with the loader though ! I’ll keep my eyes peeled for the one with plastic loader if it’s of interest to you bud 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yaxon tend to be a smaller scale, most people seem to say they are 1/41 so not much different that a 1/43 really. They are also quite basic and neither the steering nor the linkage moves but even so, I like them 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m at a few shows this year, travelling up to Spaulding from Chester is a good drive so I would like to make it worth while and bring back some stuff aswel as flog abit. Hopefully I’ll see one ! As i say yaxon are a new one on me not seen any of the above before apart from the buffalo. I don’t know what scale it is now you’ve said that. I can’t really remember was last year when I last saw it. The buffalo 130 that artisan do is very nice ! Thinking of buying a few for shows I really like them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ford/nh fan Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Did Ros take over yaxon ? As the early ros tractors are very similar build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbo Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I do like these Yaxon models and I will probably try to get as many of them as I can, especially now that I have seen that there are a number of variants. I have got 2 different Lamborghini versions, one with blue decals and one with black decals 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I mentioned the Same Trident a few days ago, this is a factory conversion using the Buffalo casting and was only done for a short time, hence they are quite rare 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I know there is a photo of this model earlier in this topic but it is the latest addition for me to my Yaxon collection, unfortunately no box but it good condition. I will have to keep an eye out for the 12500 version to make up the pair now 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
