Lord Ferguson Posted September 24, 2008 Author Share Posted September 24, 2008 Have you bought anything new lately Mark ? Only the new stuff mate... the white MF... got the others on order... missed some nice construction stuff on ebay a few weeks ago as well :'( Oh... not forgetting my PDC 5445 Don't worry mate not getting closer the next few months (or i must build a lot of MF models ) My collection is near some 125/130 MF models and then the rest off the other brands i have. Bought a house Mark and then i can't buy a lot of mf models this year :'( I reckon you have more than me already then Johnny... I think I have about 100 models mate \ still an awesome collection. have started with collecting brochures also, but no way near as many as you have.. amazing thanks buddy... good on you for starting a brochure collection too - I'm in to them really more than I am the models... lots more to collect now as well - not blooming cheap mind you :'( - so it's a slow old process collecting paper :'( - How many do you have now in your collection - is it all Fords Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FordTractorCrazy Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 got 550 since i started collecting 4 months ago.. from all over the world. I only collect Ford, New Holland and Versatile brochures. It is sure expensive.. but as i have just started, i am starting with the cheaper ones.. but this month i have bought for over 400 euro's of brochures \ i am putting them on my website..but am a bit behind (100 to go).. and meanwhile trying to get an as complete collection of miniatures as you have..

FordTractorCrazy Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Scanning would take ages.. i cheated a bit.. took pictures with my digital camera and use photoshop to resize and crop the pictures.. is much faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johny mf Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Don't worry mate not getting closer the next few months (or i must build a lot of MF models ) My collection is near some 125/130 MF models and then the rest off the other brands i have. Bought a house Mark and then i can't buy a lot of mf models this year :'( I reckon you have more than me already then Johnny... I think I have about 100 models mate \ I think you have more then 100 mate because the size of youre cabinet! it has to be more then 100! I must be honest my MF colection is getting bigger and bigger after i begon to make my own massey's! I think that i have made 10/11 massey's my self and if i'm wright there are 9 on there way that i will finish this year or in the begining of next year. (including the 8480) Just did a small count off the models from you and i stopped rufley taken by 110! so think youve got about 130 also!
