The Tractor Twitcher Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Just got back from Spalding and i'm beginning to think as I unpack, what have I done. Had an absolutely brilliant day which (as usual) went far too quickly, met up with loads of great people both familiar and new faces. Even though my parents took the appearance of pack horses for most of the afternoon they seemed to have really enjoyed themselves too and couldn't stop talking about the models they had seen or people they had met over the fish 'n' chips we were scoffing near York. Now just the small decision of what comes out of my cabinets and what goes in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tractor Twitcher Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 what did you get mate? Just had a quick count up Paul and i've come home with 32 tractors all 1/32 scale. I'll post the specifics and photographs in the Spalding purchases thread, but i've come home with more Fendts and Fergies than any other make and also treat myself to my first DBP models ( both bubble cab blues ) which I can't take my eyes off.

The Tractor Twitcher Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Thank goodness you had your parents there David - that's a lot of tractors .... we are looking forward to seeing them all! I really appreciated them being there Jo, and was also capped they took such an interest the main hobby i've chosen to pursue and had a enjoyable time in doing so, i'll have them all photographed a little later as i'm still endeavouring to carefully unpack them at the moment. good choices david,ive been driving a fendt today,look forward to the pictures Thanks Paul, the Fendts I bought look great lined up together, I ended up with examples from Wiking, Weise and Schuco. As for the Fergies I now have a nice big articulated Ertl 4900 through to a UH 35X. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
