Question – Do You Diecast?
December 19, 2008 – 5:14 amDo You Diecast?
When you visit the local Wal Mart or K Mart, or pretty much any store for that matter, do you find yourself in the toy section searching for that one diecast car that is the “Mini Me” to your ride? Going through the Hot Wheels, Muscle Machines, and Johnny Lightnings, one by one hoping to strike the mother load.
I mean, it doesn’t matter if it’s 1/64 scale or 1/18 scale, by the time you have made it to the far end of the aisle, your hands have touched every card and box that has a diecast or model car in it. And what is really sweet is when they have just put a new shipment out, WOW! Tell the spouse to go to the clothes section, because you’re gonna be there a while.
Well I find that I spend as much or more time in the toy section of the store as a little kid.
What is or would be your ultimate find?
Are you like me where you have to buy more than one of the same car?

Over the years I have colected quite few die cast cars and truck’s…..1/18 scale American Muscle are good but my favourite’s seem to be the 1/24 scale Franklin Mint and Danbury Mint cars..There are many 1/43 scale cars of different makers that are quite colectible and give pleasure to the beholder…Some are just a couple of dollars and many others can get expensive..Old tin toys can be a lot of fun colecting also….If you are away from the mainstream E Bay is a good source for Diecast and old tin toys….It is addictive…Hugh…

My ultimate find, an inexpensive, regular production run model of my 1976 Trans Am, and my 1960 Plymouth Savoy 4-Dr.
