What Diecast brand u like?

which brand make good quality car model?

i will choose AA and Kyosho for the budget u considered.

emp: well 600 for 2-3...not easy la if AA or Kyosho. coz average those are like 350 each.

but it really depends on what kind of car you collect. JDM, supercar/exotics, racers, f1, muscle cars, sports car, "normal" cars(i.e vios, camry, accord, civic) etc coz different brand do different types of cars.

i will go for AA & kyosho & minichamps too for general collection brands.. But as i only collect ferrari models, i mainly have Hotwheels Elite and kyosho models..

and so far, Kyosho is the best when it comes to the value-buy! cheaper than AA but better than AA, let alone comaping with elite models.

emp: well like marcus said, if ur into ferrari, hotwheels and kyosho are your best bet. BBR does ferrari as well but only limited models and expensive. rm700-800 onwards. hot wheels produce mostly all the F-cars while kyosho mainly concentrate on older F-cars like f40, testarossa, 250 gto etc.

for other supercars, well so many different brands. (budget) maisto, norev, mondo motors, motor max, welly (premium) autoart, minichamps, kyosho

Hehehee....welcome EMP!!! As for me for 1/18 scale i go for AA and Kyosho.And for 1/43 scale i will go for AutoArt,Ebbro,HPI,Kyosho,J-Collection,IXO and there is more......

is 1/18>1/43 in size? Which other brand is good and cheaper after AA and Kyosho. Thanks for the info. Will study into it. May i know what is "AA"

1/18 is bigger thn 1/43..AA is Autoart
458 Italia by HW elite...

Ok. Thanks for the information. Nice info.

Emp..here's what you need to figure out 1st.
1.What type of Cars you want to collect? (JDM, supercar/exotics, racers, f1, muscle cars, sports car)(thx geeamino)
2.Is there a theme to your collection.
3.How much you're willing to spend.
4.Can you maintain them properly(cabinets, Dusting, cleaning, waxing etc).

Next go out to your nearest toys store like the ones in KLCC, TimeSquare to see how a Kyosho AA(Autoart) Hotwheels Hotwheels Elite Minichamps Model looks like. You can then judge the quality and pricing yourself.

Try not buying directly when at these shops cos the price is a killer!!
Look through this forum and you might find that some of our brothers and sister offering you a deal you cannot resist and its value for money!!

Certain type of Car models are licensed to certain model makers only....e.g. you cant expect a ferrari from AA So you gotta live with Hotwheels(sigh)...of course there is the BBR's(grrrrrrr) which will cost you at least 1k.

Collecting Diecast Models is all abt passion and patience. You need to know exactly where and how to start....and surely you'll end up basking in the glory of finishing excelently.

This forum is here to help you do just that!!!!!

Enjoy Diecasting

Wow..ur comment can put at 1st post..useful for beginners

thanks everyone,i like this scirocco very much~

Vallex: haha,im VW's fan too,but fo me VW in white looks nicer, and yea i got the E clas coupe a couple month ago and norev really did a very good job on that e class coupe,its almost AA quality.

^^^ exactly.

it's impossible for us to tell u everything. you need to look around. go to ebay and just search for any cars u like e.g "reventon 1/18" or "lamborghini 1/18" or whatever then you will know who makes what and the price range.

but one thing u should never do....is buy diecast as an investment. it's not an investment. lol.
