The Bachmann Duck Thread

[Eman627]

I found this. http://www.bachmanntrains.com/NMRA_2012.pdf No sign of Duck, however.

Yeah that's on the front page, don't worry though. Although its odd he is not in there I have good reason to believe he will be seen at te convention.

So, when are we gonna see a photo of Duck?

We don't know.

I was wondering. I know everyone says that Donald and Douglas' chassis could be used for Duck's model, but are Duck's and Donald/Douglas' chassises really 100% identical, or are there some minor differences?

[Cheeky_ULP]

The real lives prototypes are different, but for the TV show they're the same length/wheel spacing, likely for cost cutting reasons.

Every time a see a post in this thread I get excited.

Me too. Every day I keep expecting someone to upload video of Duck, partially finished, on display. It's nerve-wracking sometimes.

I hope he gets a proper face.. like the closed smile with the half-moon eyes. That was one of my favorite Duck faces back in the day.

Same thing with me, and I hope we get to see a photo of Duck soon.

We're ALL starting to get impatient! We already saw Large Emily.

Don't we all get excited... we've been waiting a long time to see NWR's No. 8 get the accurate Bachmann treatment...

I want a hornby one really.  Don't kick me off the forum for that!  . I feel the said has more nostalgia value.

I want a h****y one really.  Don't kick me off the forum for that!  I feel the said has more nostalgia value.

Well, if you want one so bad, why don't you look for one on Ebay or something?

Putting h****y for HORNBY just brings more attention to the fact that you are mentioning another brand. It's no big deal just put the actual name, no one really cares you won't get banned. This is a forum for trains so as long as it is train related we can talk about it all we want, wether we are buying it from BACHMANN or not. BACHMANN is my personal favorite company. I feel they make the best products with the most detail and value, however I still recognize, as I'm sure BACHMANN does, that there are other companies, like HORNBY, with good products as well. So mentioning other brands is not some sort of betrayal it's just natural, because other brands exist.

Thanks for that.  I'll modify my post.

Well... A hornby spencer is going to cost me $200,  and I JUST have enough for that!  So my wallet needs to recover before I can get one.
