Beautifully rendered model. Very realistic. Those ballon tyres are perfect
for this application. And it has steering! Excellent. I am a little
concerned about the ground clearance to the ladder though.
Does anyone know why TLC has never produced a farming theme? The playability
potential is quite high, and it's a nice peacable pastime. The toy ailses
are otherwise laden with farm playsets in cheap chinese plastic, but none in
Lego. I for one would like to see Lego sheep and cows and pigs. Apologies
for the thread drift (and if this has been done to death already).
Cheers,
Allister
