I have a few but the one that always surprised me was the Australia Zoo Defender 90. I got that from Australia Zoo in 1999 . And what surprised me was that 90's wern't in Aus by that time and Australia Zoo was sponsered by Toyota and did nit use Land Rover . Its the small one on the right

Not many, just the usual stuff. The only unusual one is the black RRC that I got off my nephew who is now 19 and gave his matchbox collection to my son.
