COWBOY Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 your right parmiter the knobs are ruining god models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGU Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Yes but they are not models, they are toys. Being able to steer them via the knob is important for kids!! That is not an inuendo either! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDC Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Not a great pic I know but the camera battery's are flat so I had to use the phone : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FW Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Not a great pic I know but the camera battery's are flat so I had to use the phone : Smart looking model but they seem to be copying Britains with the wheels rims unfortunatley which is a shame as they got the wheels spot-on on the 6920 farmer+. :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluegreen Posted July 16, 2007 Author Share Posted July 16, 2007 Thats a much nicer model than my 6920 and i will tell you why! The front wheels & tyres are correct in proportion to the rest of the 7530 whereas the 6920 tyres were way oversize I liked the width of them but height wise they are above the front lights when they should have been well below As for back wheels I think they are about right as well, they just need a few coats of bright yellow no12 revell enamel paint and some detailing of the wheel nuts with silver paint to finish makes a big difference to tractors appearance (especially JDs) then remove that silly knob of roof finito Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatepoundland Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 i do think that the yellow plastic on these looks a bit "flat", the same as the axion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi6920 Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 She looks like a decent model, i noticed it has rear wheel weights cast in also, nice touch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmernick06 Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I'll be having one of those .... in time Bit of work will hopefully having that looking perfect. Really want it but just wondering how it will compare with say a Valtra T or McCormick ZTX on my layout Still desperate for it ... hate the knob \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDC Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 so what do you think to it? Personally I REALLY like it :o you just have to look past the knob on the roof and the front linkage to see Siku have really captured the shape and size of the real tractor ;) You have to ask your self this, if there was no Universal Hobbies would this be the best thing since sliced bread ? I think Siku and Britains get better all the time and remember this these ARE toys suitable for children over three :o I think tractor collectors and converters worldwide will be turning these 'toys' into cracking 'models' and I for one look forward to the challenge (which is why I bought 6) ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluegreen Posted July 17, 2007 Author Share Posted July 17, 2007 Hmm thats an interesting shot. You can see what I mean about the 6920s daft front tyres there as big as the new 7530s ALSO anyone else notice how the new Siku JD has a different hitch on its rear end It doesnt stick out any where near as far as 6920!! I hated that so much I removed hitch of mine It looks spot on now with my blue marston trailer behind it (instead of 10ft behind with hitch in situ Steering column on 7530 looks far to big \ I think with a bit of modifcation it could still be a cracking model though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
