Bill Walters Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 There is so much out there to collect. If you look at your collection today, is there more vintage or modern? Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 for me bill it's more vintage up till early / mid 90's,mainly due to this being my farm years so to speak,and also because the brand seemed to loose its way a bit in quallity ect then ,which i'm glad to say is slowly getting better hence me buying some new stuff again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEBRITFARMER Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Hi Bill, Mine is nearly all new. Like to keep up with the times. Plus alot of the older Britains sell for crazy money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FB Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 most of mine is upto around 1996 era, have a few of the newer models, (Mf combine, MF 6290's, SPFH's, irrigator, trailers) but like TM810 said "the brand seemed to loose its way a bit in quallity", but i'm not keen on NH's as i'm a MF fan. Have collected older items off of ebay. i do have both SPFH though you will be pleased to know and allot of potato boxes/dumpy bays!! ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IH885XLMAN Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 anything from vintage to 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, as long as it is something i have interacted with or can relate to in my area but nothing like the big buds or prairie monsters although the new IHC snoopy looks fantastic I'm very tempted to break a habit of a life time ,the detail is just awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCF Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 For my 16th scale collection, It is mostly vintage, but i am starting to get more moderm tractors. For my 32nd scale collection, it is all modern, and for my 64th collection 98% is modern i believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatepoundland Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Mainly 1980s to now, but apart from the recent Siku historical releases and of course the JD 4020 and David Brown from RC2, there hasn't been a lot of vintage to collect over the last few years in 1:32 unless you bought a kit such as SCALEdown or paid a load of money, if I could afford it, my collection would be a lot more vintage than it is now. I read in the diecast collectors supplement (thanks Dave T) that the vintage outsells the modern in 1:16, I would like to see an increase in the 1:32 vintage market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texas Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 My collection is most new (90%) and a few britains 70s and 80s and case ih (1:32) from ertl. Texas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-classic-collector Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 hi, mt collection is about 80% modern wise (although the idea of implements is old) and about 20% old its all modern siku and a little modern britains (aswell as my modern ertl peices) but i do have some 60s 70s and 80s peices. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civilpek Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 mie is made up of 50% modern and 50% classic stuff 95% britains or britains conversions basically the stuff i wud have seen in real life woking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 The majority of my tractors & implements date from 70s uptill the late 80s ,early90s although there are a few modern tractors starting to creep in .95% are britains built with a token offering from ertl. But the main collection are tractors i was familliar with as i was either growing up or have actually used. It would be good to release some retro models of some that wern`t available .I personally would like a few David Brown 90-Case 94 series models to become available . thank you for your time.
