Happy Fourth of July

Happy Birthday, United States of America!

Welcome to all those persons of good will who visit Bunker Talk.

I am proud to be an American and served in the US Army Reserve for many years.

I was also a reserve police officer for many years as well.

Still, I recognize all nations have contributed to the mosaic that is humanity and I welcome readers from all over the world!

 Here I write mostly about toy soldiers and toy tanks.

I pray for peace, security, freedom, and prosperity for all.

Have a happy Independence Day.

Toy Car

This is a very old toy.

I got it on eBay years ago.

It was pretty ratty when I got it.

I stripped off the old paint.

And fixed the dents.

Then primer painted it and painted it up.

I printed out a few building fronts to use for buildings in photos.

Lamborghini Countach

Lamborghini  Countach is a high end Italian sports car.

They would go from 150 to 200 miles per hour.

They were in production in the 1970s to the 1980s.

About 2,000 were made.

Some  ended up in police custody.

Sometimes they were used by criminals and ended up getting seized by police.

Some agencies take confiscated cars and use them as police vehicles, often for anti-drug displays.

Of course, they also work as high speed pursuit vehicles.

Per Mr. G, Dubai uses them as real police cars.

Robin and Batman

Hot Wheels Robinmobile.

It's a very nice model car.

It's also a good size compared to the 1966 Batmobile.

A nice pair of cars.

Batman and Robin and their cars.
