Looks like someone used a rapid prototyping machine. Uses a 3-d stereolythography image file made of the real thing, and the machine uses a laser to solidify a resin media. Makes it layer by layer. When its done, you have an extremely detailed model, as you can tell.
Pretty cool. ------------- 1954 WD45 NF "Iron Tater" |

| Which-ever way you look at it, it's still going to be made of resin. |

Nice but I really need an anatomically correct 185, not a 170 with 185 decals, maybe 2012??? |

I was just saying I was hoping the show tractor was going to be a correct 185, nobody has made one yet. |

I'm in a yellow one and maybe the orange one too. Jeff you are likely right on the rapid proto type method. Our son-in-law heads that part of FlowServe in Canada. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |

Scale Models has done correct size 180 and 185 toys. They were for the Iowa FFA and recently they did a shelf model 185. Got one for christmas last year. |

| Those still are not quite right, look at the right side of the tractor, they have the early 170/ D17 IV side pump. The platform and wheels are still off and the tractor is lacking detail. It is a step up from what we had but I wish we had one like SpecCast did with the 6000 series tractors. |

I guess i never looked at them that closely. To me they were better than having a spec cast 175 with 185 decals on it. I think we have been spoiled with the newer spec cast stuff and its precision quality. Im with you I would love to see spec cast do more allis stuff. 5000, 7000, 8000 and hundred series toys would be amazing to have from them. Who know we may get them eventually. Since the orange spectacular has been great at getting us allis toys that have never been produced here are some models that i would like to see. 8095 5000 series 6040 6140 Its nice to see models that have never been produced before. Love this years IB. Great idea!!!! |

I owe you an apology, I just seen one of those models they are not the toy I thought they were. still not as good as the latest from SpecCast but much better than I had thought. |
