New 1/32nd Case IH 9120 Tracked Combine

We've just received in the new 1/32nd Case IH 9120 Tracked Combine. This combine comes with a 16-row corn-head along with our existing grain head. I received quite a few questions at the National Farm Toy Show about why we didn't tool a bigger grain head. All I can tell you is that we are waiting to hear from our contacts at Case IH about this same subject.

As you can see from the pictures, I also want to highlight the new 1/32nd diecast grain cart we're tooling. Don't mistake this grain cart for the "mostly" plastic model we've had in the past. The entire frame and cart body of this unit is diecast and now features the "hole" hitch that works with the pins on our newer 1/32nd tractors.

If you want to do some serious combining, be sure to take a look at this great model.

New 1/64th Items being introduced today

Today we are announcing additional new 1/64th items.

#1. 1/64th Case IH and NH Big Square Balers. We've received many requests to produce a big square baler in 1/64th. We've had 1/32nd models in our line for a few years. We're finally able to announce the 1/64th versions as well. These will come out in the April/May 2010 timeframe.

#2. 1/64th Case IH Authentics 6088 combine. We've updated our 7088 combine to a 6088 model and also tooled a 8-row corn head for this unit.

Stop by the Ertl booth to see these new units.

We're ready for the Show

We hope you'll have time to stop by our showroom and see all of the new product we have.

We have over 120 items on display that are new for 2009, and many other "new" 2010 items on display. We'll also have some special announcements on Saturday, so continue to check back for more exciting news.

It's "Show" Time

We're closing in on the National Farm Toy Show, and I'll be putting up some "sneak peeks" all week. I've already posted one out on toy talk, (1/64th JD 7130 w/2WD and mower). Now here's another new item.

1/64th JD 4760 w/rear duals and MFWD. Since we introduced the 3-pc set last year, I saw some complaints that those tractors only had single rear tires. We aim to fix that with some individual releases, this being the first. These workhorses are still in wide-spread use today, and I know there are some farm toy collectors waiting for a 4760.
