Anyone seen any riding mowers or push mowers in O scale?

Arttista makes a man with a gas-powered push-mower...very nice detail at $7.25.

Thanks for the post. I have been looking for a long time for a John Deere ridinfg mower. All I see is farm equipment. I'm hoping to find an answer in this thread.

Chief,

Have you checked the local JD dealer for toys?  My local JD dealer has a nice farm set for about $45.00.  Not sure if the combine is in it.

Good call, Joe. Actually that was at 48...but not the 56 1/2 that I now claim. One more wisecrack like that and I'll hit the 'report abuse' button. Big Smile [:D]

I placed an order last week for a push mower with Oakridge Hobbies - www.oakridehobbies.com.  The mower is part is #055-10446.  It is without a figure; it may be a challenge to find a right sized figure to put with the mower.  The Arttista offering mentioned previously is the best bet - it has the mower and the figure.

There seems to be availability issues with Arttista.  I order a lot of my scenery supplies through Scenic Express.  When I spoke with them last they said all of the Arttista offerings were on indefinite backorder - they mentioned illness at Arttista.  I guess Artissta is pretty much a one person show. Does anybody have an additional information or a source for Arttista?
