Nothing Runs Like A Deere
|
The casting, paint and tampos are quite nice on this one. The painted on windshield wipers are cool. Don't care for the slammed stance, but overall a great effort from Maisto. |

It's the Lesney Generation...comin' at ya...goin' strong...

This might be the one I gave you? I never liked this one, because... 1) too large a scale for me to use. 2) too much of a pain in my minimus, medius, and maximus to alter axle depth, and to find the proper wheels for. 3) a constant reminder of how there are no stock 1500s out there, in the small scale, anywhere (I believe Corgi did it in 'O', though). I don't count the Siku V series, really, because they're so unobtainable anyway. Well, as long as other peeps like it. |

I'm sure you have some cosmic rationale... but here you are, in the ninth, two men out and three men on... nowhere to look, but inside, where we all respond to PRESSURE!!! | |

No- this one is in xddorox's collection. The one you gave me came with explicit instructions to banger it. And I did.

New casting?? Quick! Take it apart!
|
Swifty, I don't know which is more unbelieveable, SAK telling you to banger one of these, or YOU actually doing it!

Compact

I think I wound up with one of those models because it came in a Hauler/Trailer 2-pack pack. The Towing vehicle was my Avalanche so I had to buy it! Edited by markkaz, Dec 1 2009, 08:45 AM.

I couldn't help but think bangering it would be a vast improvement. |
