James Martin Farm Modeller Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Once again, Marge Models have done an excellent model of the Claas 990 Jaguar harvester in both Terra Trac and the wheeled versions, The Maize header comes with both of the Jaguars, with the pickup reel being an option, so this will be at extra cost. Both types are easily fitted on either machine, and they just slip over lugs on the intake. The only real difference between the two is the Terra Trac or wheel version. The paint scheme has a high gloss finish to it. A little surprised that none of the side panels open to reveal the engine components, but the top panels are wire mesh which are see-through. The operator's cab has a high amount of detail both inside and out, but I could not find a way into the cab to fit an operator into the cab, But these models will be put straight in a glass cabinet for most collectors. I do not think anyone will wheather or but this onto a diorama. The discharge chute for the crop will lift and rotate from side to side. The maize header unfolds in two stages. It is highly detailed even on the underside, depth wheels are fitted on the rear. Plus, all the cutting crop discs rotate, which is a nice touch. The Pickup reel option again has plenty of detail with side depth wheels, and the front intake top guard will raise and lower. The Terra Trac is the same as on all the Claas machines, with good detail on the track frames and well-med rubber tracks. The rear wheels have a small amount of lock from side to side Review Comments, An excellent model and will be a must for all the collectors of this iconic farm machinery brand. Well done, Marge Models.
