Hey guys, am new here.
I kinda start collecting diecast and Hot Wheels again since last year after a looong hault (I'm becoming obsessed )
Blame it all on my ex-classmate jay8393 lol.
Anyways, I just bought a light tent for shooting my diecast, not for pro-photography purposes, but just to have nice photos for my blog.
Do you think this photo is good? It's my first time taking photos like this, using my father's Galaxy Note.

Hmmmm, I'll try to take a photo my whole collection one day. It's not more than 20 so far, but it's growing.
Now I'm waiting for 3 cars to be shipped from overseas >< BMW M3 E46 CSL grey, BMW M3 E46 Cabrio silver, and BMW M6 White.
And thanks, will def take more photos after I get my lightings.

Haha because almost all is from Maisto and Bburago ma, plus I can consider myself a collector since I was as young as probably 5?
But well, now am starting higher-end, gonna have to go slow ><

sp6068 : Owh, what's the big boss poison?

blu3hamm3r : Haha thanks

Anyways guys, what is the reason(s) and criteria for collecting diecast?

For me I love cars since I was a toddler, and I collect cars that have impacted my life be it my dream cars, cars I see in movies, games, and super beautiful cars.

sp6068 : Ah, I see. I love the bulls too. ;D
I'm interested in collecting all types actually. From exotics, to classics/vintage, and also modern day sedans. But of course, based on whether it impacts me or not la haha. I just finished creating a full list.

Wow all your spam cars are awesome! Will spam mine as soon as I'm ready with my stuffs ;D

Hey hey guys my 3 BMW finally arrived on the same day! :DDD

The thing is, my BMW M3 Cabrio the right front light came off
Anyone can tell me how to properly glue it back? Scared got glue stains all over lol.

Hey, I decided to join in the forum haha. Can learn much more about high end diecast here.
Yes I'm still in loooove with the LFA, but sad la the engine hood, the corner got paint chip

LazyKurosaki : Yeah :/ But I guess it should be fine la, quite troublesome is send back for replacement.

cslimf1 : Oh okay I'll try that. I should be fine la because I blinged my phone with swarovski crystals one by one haha.

geeamino : Oh okay, what white colour glue is that?

geeamino : Oh alright. I have a glue though, called the E6000, like the thick clear sticky UHU type.

derrick_cls : Hey as soon as I get the last material for the photoshoot, you can start seeing my photo spams

LazyKurosaki : I "squared" out the part, not too clear but hope you can see it.

YES, that I feel lucky. I've read feedbacks on eBay, broken spoiler, bumper fall out, door broken, gosh even one die-caster here also had his racing GTR spoiler off ><

Wow, didn't know AA allow defects to happen ><
Welly is on the lower-end right? I haven't "experience" their GTAutos and FX yet.
So far my Kyoshos are amazing.
And I read a lot that people say Minichamps is just overpriced and lousy. :/

Owh, what's wrong with this one?

Do tell if *touch wood* you're required to settle with the customs ya ><
I'm quite scared to purchase more than 1 cuz of that.

Yeah, I kena the very first time I bought two 1:18 cars from overseas
The seller put in one biiiig box. So kastam suspect it's expensive lo.
My total was RM511, but they let me go since it was for my own collection.
