Not just for kids…
By Steve Mitchell
Popular party items include flags and pennants, cups and plates, even lollipops and balloons, and the latest die-cast model toys from Ertl feature a new HPX 4x4 Gator and 7820 tractor.
The two seater electric ride-on Gator has been a firm favourite for the last couple of years, and is now joined by a new off-road 4x4 - both vehicles use a tough 12V battery pack for hours of playtime fun.
For something a little different, there's also a stunning range of tin toys made in the Czech Republic - three models of Lanz and John Deere tractors, all complete with a clockwork motor, gearbox with three forward gears, neutral and reverse, a handbrake and full steering, plus a range of trailers and implements.
But if you think it's all just kids' stuff, you'd be wrong - check out the wide range of hard-wearing work clothes and stylish leisure wear for men and women, and the usual vast array of caps, plus an attractive selection of gifts and other practical items.
Treat yourself - free copies of the fourth John Deere Collection catalogue are available now from your local John Deere dealer.
