Welcome to the Hong Kong Disciplined Services Collectibles Newsletter

Are you interested in either Resin Models, Land Rovers or EOD Vehicles?

As mentioned in the last newsletter, your webmaster was recently introduced by member Ephraem P.W. Tsui to a new area of collectables known as "resin models". I had known of "diecast" models but these "resins" were very new to me. Since that newsletter went out Ephraem has been kind enough to provide us with a set of outstanding photos of the Hong Kong Police Explosive Ordinance Disposal (EOD) Land Rover Vehicle. He has also provided us some photos of a HK Police Land Rover Patrol Vehicles, a HKP Traffic Van as well as a model of a HKP Marine Bureau unit. These are all available for view on the Hong Kong Police Models page. Click here to access that page and then click thru to the 21 excellent photos of the EOD vehicle. Ephraem has also provided us with pictures of the actual vehicles in use today by the HK Police Force EOD unit. Below are just two samples of the many photos you'll find by clicking inside.

Don't forget the free patch offer below for new members.
