Title: #7723 question.
Post by: Jrodmobil on March 23, 2016, 14:47:48

Sorry, no custom pics yet. But I have a question for a project. In the set #7723 tractor equipment, there is a yellow "trailer" with a dark gray or black spiral (drill). Anyway, anyone have one or happen to know the dimensions of that spiral part.. or know if any other set came with something like that. Thanks for the info.

The spiral piece that you are referring to is the discs used to till the ground. The only other set that I know contains this part is 7314 (another old set) and I'm unsure if customer service even has the parts for these anymore.  And unfortunately, I don't even know of any suitable replacement part for it.

Most Playmobil matches G scale in model railroad, so you might look to the model railroads for a suitable replacement.  Or even the Farm Toy collectors might have the replacement discs as there are many implements there.

Thanks for the reply on the till discs. I will buy a couple 7723's for that part for my project. Waiting on some ebay buys. Thanks again.

I've updated 7723 - Tractor Equipment (http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showinv.pl?setnum=7723) and 7314 - Tractor Accessories (http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showinv.pl?set=7314) in PlaymoDB - it's by guesswork, but it's pretty straightforward. The good news is, that the harrow was used in 4055 - Farm Mega-Set (http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showinv.pl?setnum=4055) in 2008, and the discs are still available!

HARROW DISKS (http://www.playmobil.us/harrow-disks/30030710.html)
(That's in the US, and I'm assuming available since they're order-able. A good sign though.)

Show up as available in the UK too.

Is there someone on the website that shows which parts are order-able? If so this is news to me and I wonder what else I missed.  :-[

The US site doesn't tell us, but I've found that sometimes if you go to the German site and search if they are available there then they are sometimes (not always) available in the US too

You can also check on the UK site, which may be easier.
