Leigh’s Diecast Diary

Today we had a massive delivery from Universal Hobbies, headlined by their new 1:16 tractor, the Ford 5000 6X (J2705). Also on the delivery were the second version of the Massey Ferguson 135, this one with a cab (J2697), and the first ever Bamford trailer (J2712).

Thanks to everyone who came to the diecast warehouse sale on Saturday; there was a good crowd and no-one seemed to leave empty handed! There’s a bit of footage from it at the end of the latest webcast, which you can view from the post beneath this one.
