Finally a new Gleaner from Ertl!!!! I do wish it was an R series instead of an A but i wont complain atleast its kind of a Gleaner. The extension isn't too big, thats actually how big they are on the A8 series combines. The A7 and A6's are much smaller then that though.

Those New Agco Combines are Pretty Sweet!! Ertl has far exceeded my expectation as to the detail level on these new combines! I love the fact it has an actual Clear cab interior handrails and Mirrors. My biggest surprise is that both the MF and Gleaner will have the raiseable feederhouse like on the 64th CIH 9120's. I am definately impressed.
I ordered 2 1/64th Gleaner A86's through Bossen Implements as well as 1 MF 9895. I may get a 2nd MF 9895, but like the fact they changed the tire configurations between the 2 versions.
Definately one of the Best 64th announcements of 2010 so far.
As for the A67 and A66, they do have the option of the 350 bushel extentions, same as the MF 9795 and 9695 . I have seen a 9795 with the bigger extentions and sales rep I talk to said those extentions were an option on the smaller machines.

Those are not quite the finished product. I was there and Bill Walters was talking to another guy and mentioned and showed that the auger doesn't quite clear a grain cart and that they were still working on it. On the MF there also is a spacer in between the frame and tire that will probably be removed.

Even if they left it as in the pictures it would work. He showed it next to the Frontier grain cart and it just barely cleared it. |
