Anyone else collect the Kubota Toys?

Ive got a couple of the more "precision" toys I still need to get the ZD28

I've got a number of diecast toys, but no Kubota. If they made my model (L4400) then I'd get it in a minute.....but maybe I need to shoot higher and get the toy for the tractor I want in the future...do they make an M5040 or 7040?

I am not a fan of Kubota making their models in 1/24 scale. It does not line up with any of the other scales for farm and such (1/64 and 1/16 in North America, 1/32 in Europe, 1/50 for construction).

If they made them in other scales I probably would have some but the only way I buy off scale models is if they have some significance to me.

I did have a little pull back B series Kubota I gave to Frank F_15. It fit in your hand nicely and it gave his real Kubota a big brother

I have the bx backhoe I bought when I got my BX24. I do have a lot of small race bikes

I got mine from the dealer but here is a great site:
Kubota toys - Jennings Equipment Online Store

I know what ya mean about them being the odd ball 1/24th scale. Ive got a few 1/16 tractors from when I was a kid but Id really like to get the precision Case backhoe but its quite a bit of money!

Here is a 1/16 I got for my buddy for Xmas:

That precision case backhoe is amazing. They put in some amazing detail and most of it you won't see with it sitting on a shelf. I like to occasionally turn it over to see the hydraulic lines they ran underneath. It is an amazing model as is the John Deere dozer. I want to get the Deere loader and will do so someday.

Now put one of our engines in that thing and we can get a LITTLE work done.

I have dealt with Binkley and Hurst for a long time. I am partial to Your farm toys dealer, construction equipment models Kate Bossen has been great to deal with and I try to give her as much business as I can.

I bought my Case backhoe up at the Geneseo toy show a couple years ago (at a discount

). After that I just "had" to get the Deere dozer

so the only thing left right now is the Deere loader http://shop.bossenimp.com/16_JD_Wheel_Loader_544J_Precis_P6657C155.cfm
