The 300 units of the Valentini Hercules 7200 rotary tiller represent an exclusive offering, a limited edition from Agringegno. These are high-quality reproductions, characterized by an almost obsessive attention to detail
Agringegno is a small Lombardy-based company that is establishing itself in the world of agricultural modeling as a manufacturer of high-quality replicas sold in limited runs. In this specific case, it’s a batch of 300 Valentini rotary tillers, 130 of which are offered in green with a packer roller, 130 in green with a cage roller, 20 in gray with a packer roller, and another 20 in gray with a cage roller.
The reference scale, the classic 1:32, and the attention to detail, almost obsessive, are all common. Suffice it to say that the hydraulic cylinders and cardan shafts are functional, the lighting system is entirely reproduced using custom plastics, and the tool is foldable like the original.
The rollers, both the packer and the cage, are also spectacular, and the paintwork is practically perfect. Any enthusiast looking to add a valuable piece to their collection is therefore on the safe side, although they must be willing to shell out 169 euros. Quality, even in modeling, does indeed come at a price.
The only flaw, though easily remedied with a pair of scissors, is that to facilitate a possible connection to a tractor’s outlets, the manufacturer has provided generous amounts of hydraulic hoses.
But that’s not a problem, as once everything is connected, you simply cut off the ones you don’t need.
