The things you must know about diecast vehicles
I am a diecast vehicles collector who has been in this field for nearly three years, and I would love the share what I have learned from three years of experience here. They are some basis knowledge you must master for collecting and appreciating car models.
The first is the size. Generally speaking, the trunk, engine hood, scuttle and doors of diecast 1/18 models can be opened just as the real cars, and you can turn the steering wheel and tires freely too. On the contrast, 1/43 diecast car models are totally closed in most cast.
The second is the brand. It is same with the real car simply. The product style of different diecast manufactures are very different. So we must learn its style and process feature if you want to appreaciate a brand. The brand that domestic ordinary collectors are familiar with is KYOSHO. It is a janpanese brand, and it is specialized in 1/18 diecast car models, and the price of its products is mainly above $150. Relatively, the Thailand's brand maisto is much cheaper, and the quality is also good. It fixes the price around $40, so it has a large market share in China. Besides, there are Hong Kong's ANSON, Thailand's UT, French EAGLE and German AUTOart etc.
Additionally, diecast vehicles are the scaled down versions of the real cars in the real life. The car toys produced by some gift factories are not the so-called diecast vehicles indeed. Each diecast car has intellectual property, and the manufacture must get the license of the original car maker. Some diecast car models of top grade even have a unified product code.
