Artitec Restock at MBK

Page 16 in this topic mentions the restock of the Artitec Abrams tank at MB Klein (ModelTrainStuff).  https://www.therailwire.net/forum/index.php?topic=45583.225   

However, there are a number of other Artitec models that were previously sold out, and are now available.  https://www.modeltrainstuff.com/search?search_query_adv#/filter:custom_scale:N/sort:sortable_date_created:desc/filter:brand:Artitec

The model I was the most interested in is the Massey Ferguson 830 combine shown below.



The prototype is small as far as combines go.  But, I have a neighbor that still has one that is in relatively good shape, even though I have not observed him using it in the last 25 years.   :D

The length and width of the machine is approximately the same as a full size pickup, but it is taller than a pickup.  This combine is probably most useful for those modeling the 1950s through mid to late 1960s.  However, one could always park one in the weeds behind the barn on a more modern layout.   ;)
