I can’t help but feel like modern American muscle cars are a bit underrepresented in the diecast world. That’s especially true among the premium brands, as the only brand that consistently prioritizes muscle is AutoWorld, whose castings have never really impressed me.

As I was growing up, it seemed like Horacio Pagani’s latest iteration of his namesake supercar was being featured every season on Top Gear. It had wild styling, an exhaust note to die for, the kind of supercar... Continue Reading →
It’s always great to see a new performance car hit the market, but it’s a rarity to see a new performance brand. Hyundai’s N division has been taking the world by storm since it’s debut a few years ago, but there has been a startling lack of N representation in the world of diecast. I’ve... Continue Reading →
