Not those ones ya pervert, the LANDROVER ones (no ladies, they are not toys!!!!)

To get the ball rolling, here are some of mine

My first from the early 70's, a wee bit worse for wear

Got this one a bit later, so a bit less damage

Burago,1/47th scale

"Speedy power" brand, 1/32 scale Disco and horse float

The Disco has that "big wheel" look

Plastic kit approx 1/47th scale (I was young, dont look too close!)

Lanard toys, pull cord powered, 2 wheel drive approx 1/25th scale

New Ray 1/32nd scale, friction powered, 4WD

New Ray 90 and float, 1/32nd scale, no drive

Without float

Britain's, approx 1/32nd scale

Also Britain's, same scale

This bit you won't believe, I bought this before I knew what Camel Trophy was! yes, It was a Camel Rangie, I stripped and re-sprayed it 'cause I didn't like the colour, what a dumbass!!!! Now I want a Camel one.

Now lots of wee ones

Now the bigger stuff, unbranded radio controled, approx 1/20th scale

Burago 1/24th scale Freelander

Burago 1/26th scale landrover experience P38A, do the wheels look familiar? bloody british leyland parts bin

Universal Hobbies 1/18 scale 90, these are the best made models I have seen

Road legends 1/24th scale Rangie

Motor max 1/18th scale series 2 Disco, good but not as good as Universal Hobbies

My all time favourite (will be comming in the coffin with me) Universal Hobbies 1/18th scale Defender 110

And the best toy is this one, from banatoys.com 1/18th scale, bump'n'go, flashing lights, power opening doors and a real rattley sounding diesel noise, with air horns!

...and I thought this thread was about Megan Gale and Jennifer Hawkins

Seriously though, nice collection. Mine are all 1 to 1 scale

nice collection, would be cool to see some in poser action shots in the backyard or something.

After I bought my 1:1 Deefer I came to realise that I had been inadvertantly collecting them since I was a kid, I haven't got that many but I do have some different ones. I'll have to try and find them, they're still in a box from when we mooved in 2004. I'll se if I can post them shortly. There is one I'm doing as a project at the moment, 1/8th 90 r/c. I've got plenty of pics of it so I'll post soon.

Wow, I had no idea you could buy so many "Model Land Rovers".

I have a collection of 1/24 to 1/6 models, plastic and metal, but they are cars. Around 55 of them.

Maaaaaate, it would cost more than a real one to buy half of these:

Bet no-one else has one like this handmade by a black african tribesman supplementing a no doubt meagre income

It's great to know you have something no one else has and to know you probably fed the guy and his family for a week

Found them. The last pic is the entire collection

The short wheelbase in the centre of the next pic is a corgi Falklands War edition

The next shows a larger Brittans military Land Rover, windscreen broken off and an orange shorty that looks like it was found under a tree in a farmers paddock. Made by Dinky toys

The next shows a 1/18 disco and the 1/8 deefer project

These ar nice models of my two favourite cars of all time, sorry not LR

This is my D90 RC project. I am scratch building it and trying to get it mechanically close to the real thing but I am having to make some concessions.

This is the wooden prototype chassis with some nice expensive hardware

Some of the nicest models are the IXO 1:43 models. I have several like this:
