New finds and old favourites from of my somewhat random collection of military and antiquey things

Comments

  1. Interesting thing. It's got to be European hasn't it? Mediterranean perhaps. It has that look about it. Probably not very old but I still like it.
  2. Cool idea. I've never seen something like that before
  3. In theory you should be able to date it from those two letters on the base but silver plate is notoriously hard to date because there are no set rules like for sterling silver so manufactures use thei...
  4. Thats one of the best one of those I have seen. A great find. Could be from a museum.
  5. Definitely a dog, mate!
  6. Very nice. I need to get one for my beetle collection
  7. The dragon looks like he wants to play with Superdog
  8. I like the colour too but it doesn't seem like a period colour. I imagine it would be more of a French army blue.
  9. The vinyl roof makes all the difference here. If it was entirely pink I don't think I would like it as much
  10. Looks great. Might be my favourite out of the service stations I've seen
  11. Pretty cool. Looks like he could have come runner up in the auditions to play The Terminator.
  12. Lovely elephant
  13. Good set. I like the way they are displayed in the box. You must have enough soldiers for a full scale invasion by now!
  14. Central terminal looks like a cool building. I googled it - what a shame it is no longer used
  15. great old car
  16. Superb! Don't often see models of the old horse drawn buses. I've not seen very many London tram models either over the years, come to think of it.
  17. A lot of unusual stuff in those sets
  18. Striking looking car. Pretty sure Batman would feel at home in one of those.
  19. Merry Christmas
  20. It's done well to survive this long at all considering how fragile it is. Merry Christmas Fort
  21. That is an interesting car, Deja Vu2. I like the colour. I wonder if the owner has ever taken in the water? There is only really one king of the amphibious car though..... https://www.007.com/wp-conte...
  22. Looks very impressive. You would need a very big layout to run that properly.
  23. Wow that is a big beastie when you compare it to the mammoth.
  24. I had a few problems posting this and still cant get picture 4 to stick but will try again later
  25. Look great. I like how the feet of the mirror have been made part of the design
  26. Wow never seen anything like that before. Does the Strange Change Machine still work?
  27. The Foot lockers are one of my favourite Joe accessories.
  28. The flag is a great touch
  29. Love this one. I have some bugs I need to post. Most make myself get around to it
  30. Love the black and gold
  31. Not seen one like that before. Looks impressive. Fun fact - The first half track was invented in Russia for the Tzar so he could get around in the snow. It had skis on the front and the halftrack ...
  32. They look good. You were lucky to get the terminator's shotgun still with him if they came loose.
  33. I love these. I would use one to keep my hen's eggs in in my kitchen.
  34. Its a nice one. I hope the lights don't go out for good. There is a huge archive of interesting stuff here and still a small community that visits regularly.
  35. Another nice old racer
  36. Very unusual. Good addition to the collection
  37. Being made in that translucent plastic gives it rather a magical quality
  38. The hilt of the swords is different for Meissen. I don't know what it is but I don't think it is Meissen. Or trying to be.
  39. I love that colour
  40. I really like that and all the detail and I think you are right to keep it in its box. Already looks like it is set as a display piece as it is. And also hello. Feel like I haven't spoken to you i...
  41. Awww. Terrible beast isn't a very nice name for him. He looks lovely.
  42. Is he not the wrong colour? I thought Dumbo was bluish grey.
  43. What a lovely, quirky little dog
  44. Looks like a good one for an unbranded Chinese product
  45. I think they have more gold than Fort Knox
  46. All looking good. Happy Easter Fort.
  47. Turning into a table is an excellent feature
  48. That's pretty special. I think there is a Battle of Iwo Jima version similar to this too.
  49. Never seen this before. Looks great
  50. Looks good. I like the artwork on the front
  51. See more
