JC Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 I've just been looking at some bruder toys on ebay, does anyone have any? Some of the implements look good, are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest quangova Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Yeah i wonder what they are like, tempted to dabble but never seen em in the flesh, only at online stores! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEBRITFARMER Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 I've never seen them in the flesh.....I think they are a bit bigger that Britains 1:16 scale although I could be wrong. I think fadinghairline has bought some for his kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewHolland2 Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Hi. I have the Bruder New Holland TG285. It is a good model with opening doors and bonnet. The hitch is funny though, it's like a screw which moves up and down to lower/raise implements. It is in 1/16 scale. Haven't got any implememts for it yey but some of the cultivators and planters look good in the catalogues. Hope this helps. Cheers NewHolland2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ford/nh fan Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 hi my son has some bruder stuff most if it is very well built strong plastic a lot of thought has gone in to them becauce you can buy spares for most of the implements .they are ok for what they are intended for little boys who test them to destruction .im trying to educate him into looking after his tractors. theres time yet as he's only four ha ha!.

Tractorman810 Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 hi i've seen these while on holiday ,pretty big in italy,seem well built and in 1/16 scale,seem to do most things as well,saw a good selection of implements over there,bailers,tipping trailers and ground working kit, and several good combines,havn't seen much over here though.i think they are really aimed at younger kids,as they seem very stronglly built sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted March 29, 2005 Author Share Posted March 29, 2005 Thanks for your replies, the scale has put me off though. I hoped they would be the same as Britains so i could use them as a base for conversions due to the cheap prices! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCF Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Whell, I have heard things about them before. They are considered fair detail and are very durable, but they are indeed for kids. It seems that they mainy manufacture 16th scale in the usa, but i don't know what their specalty is in Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCC Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Does anyone know if there 1/25 Claas Dominator combine would fit in with britains and siku etc. Seen one at my local CWG and it didn't look that big, maybe a tad bigger than the lexion. Anyone have any pics of one stood next to something 1/32. I daren't buy it just in case it's wrong ha ha!. Cheers Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fendt pwr Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 You can use the bruder cambridge rollers as heavy grass land rollers in 1/32 and they look fine.The roller has no roller rings like a true cambridge roller just flat steel plat hence they look like a true heavy grass land roller all you need to do is change the draw bar so it will fit up the back of a 1/32 tractor.I've seen these rollers made in light orange are like others have said they are as cheap as chips.
