At first i thought that this is some kind of an amphibious vehicle. But when i read the Wikipedia article about them, i realized that this is a Russian all terrain vehicle. It's build this way because of the harsh conditions in the Russian forests.

There's a wrecked car like that in Williams Lake, BC. It's pretty much a twisted hunk of metal and the sign beside it says something like "160 to 0 in 4 seconds... Don't Drink and Drive". It was installed by the family of the deceased.

I own a 1" scale Streamline Art Deco house. see here http://www.oceanboulevard.co.uk/2.html
Until I started furnishing it, I had no idea how much it would cost me to furnish it accurately. For instance, if you look in the dining room, there's a circular display cabinet, which cost me £80!

Kalos, you're absolutely correct. It also takes months if not years to finish a dollhouse or roombox with this kind of attention to detail. We've built a few dollhouses, and although not museum quality, they do take patience and craft.
Cheers,
Nonnie

It's not true that 'true' dollhouses are for children to play with.

This is, in fact, a fantastic world!...The island was first sighted in 1506 by a Portuguese sailor, Tristão da Cunha, but he didn´t land due to high clifs all arround the island. I just can imagine what these explorers, such as Livingstone and Magellan (Magalhães), may wonder when they discover places like this. Imagine you start hearing some distant but intense noise in middle of inexplored jungle in Central Africa and finally get a first sight of the Victoria Falls... Feel so envy!

Mysterious objest is one of US bomblets, not sure about this type, but it seems to be scaterable anti-personel mine. When hitting ground, holder (five star-like objects held together) falls off releasing spring-fired tripwires. After shord delay needed to settle down, mine is ready, so hitting tripwire mahes it BOOM

Its a cluster bomb unit "bomblet". But I'm not sure whose it is -- It doesn't look like the US ones, and might be a Russian or Eastern Bloc unit CBUs were manufactuered by 34 different countries, and have been used by a number of countries and non-state organizations (such as Hezbollah in Lebanon in 2006).
