Issue
6 of The Diecast Magazine contains die cast model
cars, trucks and aircraft and is the diecast collector magazine
for die-cast model collectors.
This
issue of The Diecast Magazine is packed with news,
new release information and features of some of the best
diecast models available. The cover story, American Muscle’s
1/18 Oldsmobile 442 W-32, is a budget-priced diecast model
car within everyone’s reach. For the price, the bang-for-buck
factor is extremely high and is well complemented by its
fantastic visual appeal.
Also
in this issue collectors of military models will rejoice
with the release of the all American diecast model of Hobby
Masters 1/72 scale M8 Armored Vehicle. This exclusive article
takes us on a ride in the 1/1 version with the 1/72 die
cast model in hand. Brian Daly also shows us his development
of a scratch-built 1/18 car hauler. The making of this custom
car hauler is simple and easy and we show you how with some
‘know how’ and simple ‘how to’ for
you to enhance any displayed racing collection in your die
cast car room.
Raffi Minasian is a familiar name to readers of The
Diecast Magazine. In this issue Raffi spills the beans
on some of the tips and tricks he employs when developing
a die-cast model for production. This in-depth article reveals
some of the secrets involved in the die cast model development
process and I am sure you will be surprised as well as more
understanding of just what does go into the making of any
quality replica.
With
Precision Miniatures’ indefinite hiatus, The Diecast
Magazine takes a look a range of diecast models that
placed this company on the map. Our Funeral Fleet article
proves the content of collections can be as diverse as the
collectors who own them! Whether you love them or just are
creeped out by them, the range of 1/18 die-cast professional
vehicles includes some fantastic funeral cars, as our detailed
story shows. If this is a little too far from your spectrum
of collectibles, but are looking for something different,
and big Fords are your thing. Then don’t miss the
1/8 diecast model car of the Ford Falcon GT and 351 Cleveland
V8 from Australian manufacturer Icon Models.
Issue
6 of The Diecast Magazine also explores American
Excellence, a newcomer to the 1/43 resin market. Manufactured

manufacturers have ever produced. First releases include
the 1976 Cadillac Seville and featured in this edition of
The Diecast Magazine is the magnificent replica
