New Model Release: Steiger STX 535


In order to celebrate Steigers 50th year producing 4wd tractors Ertl has produced a 1/64th scale STX 535. This latest version is similar to the STX 530 that was previously released with a few interesting additions. The cab top has been redesigned with a square white and black GPS beacon. It seems to be well done and looks nice on the cab. Another addition is the “50 years of Steiger” decal directly below the new “Red I” Case IH logo.
As far as value outlook I don’t see it increasing for a while, although Ertl could come back and say that it was a very limited production piece (seems unlikely). I have seen this model for sale for anywhere from $7.50-$11.00 from online dealers and implement dealers, so shop around for a good price. Also recently released is a tracked version of the STX535, I’ll post some pictures if that as soon as I get my paws on one.
