Chuck Most Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Relieved to see this- I thought Heller was in receivership?
Luc Janssens Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Relieved to see this- I thought Heller was in receivership? The company was bought by a company specializing in stationery and crafts especially for schools IIRCIf you can read French..
Art Anderson Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 I have a badly warped original of this tractor....been wanting a couple for some time now...I dig tractor kits.The "original" that keeps being mentioned was by Airfix, back a good 60 years ago, and was molded in acetate plastic, which warped like crazy over time. In addition, it was nowhere NEAR as detailed as the new Heller kit appears to be.Art

Rob Hall Posted October 22, 2016 Posted October 22, 2016 Rob, it is Friday almost 6 ..............waiting somewhat patiently for the pictures. It has been the weekend for almost an hour. LOL Four trees of gray parts in the bag. 6 tires--4 small and two large. Small sheet of decals, and an instruction booklet.

Bennyg Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 I've got one coming from England to Australia, $40.95 Australian dollars. I got the last of the 25 they had. Pretty happy.Ben
Mike Chernecki Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 I wish the canadian dollar would get better, these prices are too much. Good thing I have the real one in the garage to play with.
Bennyg Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 I wish the canadian dollar would get better, these prices are too much. Good thing I have the real one in the garage to play with.The Australian dollar is terrible. Also, we get ripped off on imports such as cars, even when our dollar was equal to the US dollar.

modelercarl Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 Just got my 2 kits today (one for me, one for a friend who owns one), and was really impressed with the package until I opened one of the kits and realized that you can easily place 4 complete kits in one box. Is this a heller thing or what?
