Tractorman810 Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 well mine arrived today, out of the box in 2 mins from getting in the front door :D very impressive work by ros superb detail all round, cant see any paint defects or glue splodges on mine anywhere, cabs all black inside pretty detailed, although a bit of colour wouldnt have gone a miss, in true uh style i guess, prehaps i have been spoilt??? by uh good alll round metal construction to, even the cabs metal framed so no probs with carpet farming for the heavy handed amoungst us steps all slatted nice attachment in the plastic shell which attaches to the rear hicth to allow trailer to fit with a hook, otherwise standard pin and hitch fitted on it(attachment in hole on bottom section of polly shell) was a bit dubious about the hitch style at first, although very detailed it didnt look like it would take any implements, but it does, although a little fiddley to fit this siku plough on?? not sure about britains stuff although it should if the plough does stays up well to given its a heavy implement top link is a ram style so extendable to fit stuff if you want, lots of prominse for scratch build implements there overall from me a nice model, no major probs so well worthy of a 9.5 / 10 from me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted November 6, 2007 Author Share Posted November 6, 2007 Great review Mr P... and what a gem... lovely build quality... what a shame it's not a Massey \ it is mate, very well put together, actually nice to get hold of a model with no makers defects for a change, unlike all the britains problems we have seen yes it would be nice as a massey, but we will have our day sometime eh mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Jokes aside, I was drawn to it after seeing the prototype pix a few months ago, mainly because one of the first Tractors I can remember having was a Britains Fiat, and later on I had one of the half track ones, though I took the tracks off it! Looks like its going to be a popular model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nashmach Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 now wouldent it be nice if a half tracked version turned up at some time in the future Wel'll take that as a hint Q :D Will look even nicer as a smaller model in the range :-X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 looks to be a worthwhile investment , will certianly be on a list at some time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDFord Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 That looks like a very nicely finished model Like Tris says, no reason for me to want one, but I might just get one of those. I reckon this is another reason for Britains/Ertl to raise their game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
