A
collectible in its own right, Issue 4 of The Diecast
Magazine brings collectors the latest news and reviews
about scale die-cast model releases.
As
always, The Diecast Magazine features the latest
releases from die cast manufacturers around the world. The
latest model from CMC, the Audi 225 Front Roadster, is here,
as is the 1:18 Mercury Parklane Convertible from Sunstar.
We take a look at the magnificent Le Mans winning Jaguar
D-Type from Autoart in 1/12 scale and an iconic car from
the Australian arm of General Motors, the 1953 FJ Holden
from Trax. We also take a sneak peek at an upcoming 1/18
release from Kyosho, that very French sports coupe, the
Alpine Renault A110!
An
update of the Lola T70 race cars from GMP leads our racing
lineup. Fans of historic American automobiles will love
the coverage on the 1:18 Carousel 1 Indy winning Kurtis
Kraft ‘Fuel Injection Special’ as driven by
the legendary Bill Vukovich! Muscle car fans, look out for
the Mustang Mach 1 in 1/43 from Minichamps, or if you prefer
something more stylish for the road, then take your pick
from the 1/24 ’57 Chevy 210 hardtop from M2 Machines
or the 1/18 1941 Packard Darrin 180 Victoria! Want something
a little different? Our detailed coverage of the build process
of a scratch-built replica allows you to watch a resin model
of a ‘Bugeye’ Austin Healey Sprite take shape
before for your eyes!
