jmd Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Yeah i saw that one on facebook Sean, They are real i remember seeing something about them when they first announced them but i don't know who were getting them but there is only 10 made and the guy on facebook was the guy who won the britains biggest collection competition so he probably got his given to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 interesting, don't recall anything on silver ones when they first announced the run , just blue. i get the “biggest” collector getting one, but how are the others sold then ?

Tractorman810 Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Well that isn't gold thats for sure, had anyone seen a pic if a gold one yet for reference ? . Call me cynical but i don't think i would touch that , one due to its price , two as its a bit suspect maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how he did it but the editor is who sold the one on ebay and now he's giving one away so he's had two of the ten Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I thought I'd bid on this as pay day looms, thankfully I noticed the postage cost before I did! It's a heavy model but not that heavy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand why people stockpile UH models at the moment, just seams a false economy. If they do rerelease the same model for £50 later this year then you would feel a little hard done by. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
