1/32 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 1 hour ago, chris.watson said: Here’s a few of mine mate, pics to correspond with your questions. No opening lid. I love the model. That’s quite nice indeed, I don’t understand why UH is pumping out combine models with out opening grain bin extensions. I would think that’s hurting the desirability for them.

Paul Palmer Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 nice looking combine Chris,yes 1/32 and no header trailers which is a shame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 It is a great looking combine, and UH have done a decent job of it. Its a shame the grain bin doesn't open as with their other combine models as 1/32 says. They included a header trailer with their Tucano, but I think that was the only combine they've done with one. Although the USK Deutz doesn't have an opening tank, it does have interchangeable parts so it can be shown in road/work modes which is';t a bad compromise. I don't think the Ros Ideal has a trailer either? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Amazone pantera sprayer arrived last week for my collection aswell........stunning model, flawless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do get a lot of stick Chris, you're right, but they have made some excellent models over the years. I really liked the Tecnoma sprayer to name but one. The Pantera sprayer is a stunner too, from what I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegreen Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 I agree Chris, UH have made some outstandingly good models, the 620 Quadtrac for example...…………………...and having seen the Axial Flow 2188 in Pecks country store yesterday I have to agree its a superb model. And its no where near as bright red as the early promo pictures suggest...……………..I hadn't intended to buy one but was very impressed by what I saw.

GPS Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 This turned up Friday.... MF 2635. The real machine is produced by TAFE in India, in both MF and TAFE models. I've no idea who the model maker is, but it's well done, nice detail and mainly diecast, it's quite heavy for it's size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GPS Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Took a chance and picked it up on ebay from a China seller. Had no problems, came quickly and well packed in a strong box. You can also get the TAFE version. I think Martyn at Martyns Farm Models had some of these a while ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluegreen Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Well I couldn't help myself after Chris put his Axial Flow pictures up and returned to Pecks this afternoon and bought myself an CASE 2188 So pleased UH didn't c*ck it up, in fact they've surpassed my expectations and I agree with Chris, its one of UHs best models todate. Just in time for wheat harvest too...………...for a change!! Thinking about it today imo there were 5 combines that defined the 90s...………………. The Claas 228 Commander, Lexion 480, Massey 40RS, New Holland TX66 or 68 and the CASE AF2188...………. with the 228 and 2188 being my favourites.

Agree with you totally about your list of classic combines.....we need a Lexion 480 to be done. Thought someone would have done it by now, although going back 5 years we hadn’t got many claas combines to choose from, and now we are spoilt for choice. Top of my wish list though, and always will be is the Massey 400 and 500 series combines from the 60s and 70s, just can’t believe they haven’t been done yet.
