Frequently Asked Questions

Expert answers about scale models, collecting, and worldwide shipping

What is diecast and why are diecast model cars so popular?

Diecast refers to a metal casting process where molten alloys (zinc, aluminum, magnesium) are injected into molds under high pressure. Diecast model cars are popular because they offer exceptional durability (metal construction lasts decades), authentic weight and feel, precise reproductions with opening parts, and collectible value that appreciates over time.

What are the best scales for diecast model cars - 1:18, 1:43, or 1:12?

Each scale serves different collectors: 1:18 scale (25-30cm) is the most popular with perfect balance of size, detail, and price. 1:43 scale (10cm) is compact and affordable for large collections. 1:12 scale (40cm) offers premium museum-quality detail. 1:24 scale is a budget-friendly entry point. We recommend starting with 1:18 - it's the sweet spot for serious collectors.

Which 1:18 diecast brands do you recommend - Norev, GT Spirit, or Minichamps?

Each brand has its specialty: Norev offers best value with excellent Mercedes and Porsche models. GT Spirit specializes in resin supercars with limited editions (1,500-3,000 pcs). Minichamps delivers German precision for Formula 1 and Le Mans. AUTOart provides top-tier diecast with fully opening parts. CMC creates ultra-premium hand-assembled classics. For beginners, we recommend Norev - unbeatable quality-to-price ratio.

How should I display my diecast car collection to protect it?

Proper display protects your investment. Essential requirements: UV-protected glass to prevent paint fading, dust-proof seals, adjustable shelves for different scales, and optional LED lighting without heat damage. Placement tips: avoid direct sunlight, keep away from heat sources, maintain stable temperature, and clean with soft microfiber monthly. For 1:18 scale, allocate 35cm depth per shelf.

What's the difference between diecast and resin model cars?

Diecast models are made from metal alloys - heavier, more durable, often with opening parts, mass-produced and affordable. Best for beginners and handling. Resin models are hand-poured polyurethane - lighter, more fragile, with finer surface details, limited editions (500-3,000 pieces). Best for serious collectors and display-only. Our recommendation: start with diecast for durability, add resin for exclusive limited editions.

Are diecast cars a good investment? Do collectible model cars increase in value?

Yes, but not all models. What appreciates: limited editions under 1,000 pieces, discontinued Minichamps and CMC models, Le Mans winners and F1 championship replicas, first editions vs. re-issues, and mint condition with original box. What doesn't appreciate: mass-produced models (50,000+ units), items without original packaging, and damaged pieces. Key insight: buy what you love first - investment value is a bonus.

How do you ship diecast cars safely? Will my model arrive undamaged?

We use a double-box system: inner box contains original manufacturer packaging with foam inserts and bubble wrap; outer box is heavy-duty cardboard with FRAGILE markings and tracked shipping with insurance. Our damage rate: under 0.1% (industry average: 2-3%). If your model arrives damaged, contact us within 48 hours with photos - we replace or refund immediately, no questions asked.

How long does shipping take for model cars?

Orders placed before 2 PM (CET) ship same day. Delivery times: EU 2-5 business days (Express 1-2 days), UK 3-7 days (Express 2-3 days), USA/Canada 5-10 days (Express 3-5 days), Rest of World 7-14 days (Express 5-7 days). Carriers: DHL Express, UPS, DPD. All shipments include tracking and insurance up to €500.

Do you ship diecast models internationally? Which countries?

Yes! We ship to 100+ countries worldwide. Free shipping thresholds: EU over €79, UK over £99, USA over $149. Import duties: EU destinations have no additional duties (we're EU-based). Non-EU may have import duties - we provide all customs documentation. DDP option available for USA/UK: pay one price with no surprises at delivery.

What is your return policy for collectible models?

14-Day Satisfaction Guarantee: return unused items in original packaging for full refund or exchange. We cover return shipping for defective items. Damaged in transit: contact within 48 hours with photos for free replacement or full refund - no need to return the damaged item. Not returnable: opened limited editions (seal broken) and items marked Final Sale.

How do pre-orders work for upcoming diecast models?

Pre-order process: 1) Reserve with small deposit (usually 20%) to secure your model. 2) Wait - we notify you when manufacturer releases. 3) Pay balance when model arrives at our warehouse. 4) Ship within 24 hours of arrival. Benefits: guaranteed allocation (limited editions sell out fast), price lock (no increases), and cancel anytime before dispatch for full refund.

Do you offer wholesale pricing for diecast cars? How to become a reseller?

Yes! We supply retailers across Europe. Requirements: valid business registration (VAT number for EU), minimum first order €500, physical or online store selling collectibles. Benefits: 20-40% discount depending on volume, priority allocation for limited editions, dedicated account manager, NET 30 payment terms (after approval), and dropshipping available.

Ferrari Maranello's Legends in Scale

Ferrari model cars embody the passion and engineering precision that made the Prancing Horse the most recognized emblem in automotive history.

Our Ferrari scale model collection spans six decades of iconic design, from the F40 — the last car personally approved by Enzo — to the hybrid 296 GTB. The 250 GTO, valued at over $40 million at auction, is equally prized in 1:18 and 1:43 scale reproductions. Modern collector favorites include the LaFerrari, SF90 Stradale, 488 Pista, and F12 TDF.

Volkswagen The People's Car, Collector's Icon

Solido also excels in European market classics that others overlook — French cars like the Peugeot 205 GTi, German touring cars, and American muscle — filling gaps rather than duplicating what every other producer covers.

IXO also produces select 1:18 scale models for collectors who want larger format motorsport replicas. What makes IXO the go-to manufacturer for motorsport collectors? Catalog depth that no competitor matches — if a car raced in WRC, Le Mans, or DTM, IXO has likely produced it. At EUR 15-30 per 1:43 model, building a comprehensive motorsport collection is within reach. Discover our selection of 210+ IXO models spanning decades of racing history.

MCG Everyday Classics Nobody Else Makes

MCG diecast models fill the gap that established manufacturers ignore — the everyday classics that defined European streets from the 1960s through the 1990s. MCG, short for Model Car Group, is a German-based manufacturer specializing in affordable 1:18 and 1:43 scale diecast replicas of cars that shaped daily life across the continent but rarely receive the collector model treatment. The MCG catalog reads like a European parking lot time capsule — where other producers chase supercars and race winners, MCG reproduces the Mercedes W123 sedan your family drove to vacation, the Ford Granada that sat in every other driveway, and the Opel Kadett C your neighbor polished on Sundays. Their range includes the Volvo 240, Citroen CX, Peugeot 604, Saab 900, and Fiat 131. MCG also covers American classics like the Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, Lincoln Continental, and Dodge Monaco alongside Eastern European models — the Skoda 120, Wartburg 353, and Lada 2106. This breadth of catalog is unmatched at EUR 30-50 for a 1:18 diecast model. What sets MCG models apart for collectors? They produce cars that simply do not exist from any other manufacturer in this scale. MCG models are sealed — no opening parts — which allows sharp body lines and consistent pricing. New releases arrive monthly, steadily expanding into categories that mainstream producers overlook. For collectors of European automotive history beyond the sports car spotlight, discover our selection of 120+ MCG models in 1:18 and 1:43 scale.
