Thanks for the pics. They are beautiful models.
Who made them? What are they made of?
Happy New Year,

Brings back memories of playing with Britains models, mine were either red or blue

, but most of the new (plastic) stuff is of the, ahem, green variety

.

I still have a Britains Power Farm set in the loft boxed but played with that has a TW35 (I think) a Howard muck spreader and a mower, possily another implement too. All fully functioning - well typical farmer like "was working when I put it away"

. Apparently I've been told it might be worth a bob-or-two.

Hi Bensdexta,

most of the 1/32 Scale models are from Britains. Some are from Ertl. Most of the 1/16 Scale models are from UH-Models and some are from Ertl. The big 1/12 Scale Models are all from Ertl. All models are made off metal. Some built in parts are made off plastic.

Best regards,
Gerhard Hafeneder

Ah! My mother gave me a Britains Dexta I think in about 1961. Still have it somewhere. That started my interest in Dextas!
