Is that a Landy in the background?

I checked back against wider shot from the footage..... it isn’t a Landy  :'(

My LAF Gallery is HERE
Minis (foot & mounted) finished in 2024 = 0
(2023 = 151; 2022 = 204; 2021 = 123; 2020 = ???)

You guys are in luck - Same episode, just a little later:



Now that is a Landy for sure!


EDIT:

You can't make this up - I am currently reading "Fire in the streets" by Eric Hammel during my commutes. Just now on the way home I discovered this:



That sure does look like a Landy in the background as well. :D

Couple of great shots there; I can see this thread devolving into Landy porn... I just hope no Land Rovers were harmed during the hostilities.

Excellent observations - which mean I can add a Landy to my civilian fleet for hot-wiring by the Marines  :D

Not sure about Landy porn, but possibly Landy Pantomime.

In an attempt to get back on track, this pink flashlight appears soon after. I don’t recall if any of the minis have a flashlight but if not, then please do add to ‘the list ’  ;)

Landy schmandy! After discovering that the old New Ray ‘City Cruiser’ line of diecasts are actually 1/48 not the advertised 1/43, I purchased a 1957 Pontiac Bonneville for the staggering price of $12.50 there are ‘66 model Pontiac and Fords out there too.

@Silent Invader:

I noticed that pink flashlight as well. Would love a chance to paint that! :D

@Carlos:

Thanks for the heads up concerning New Ray. That might come in handy.
