1/24 cale die-cast's?

hi

i model mainly in 1/24 scale plastic but wondering are there any die-cast models in 1/24 scale? apart from bburago, most i can find are 1/18 scale which is too big for me, so i can get certain favourite models that isnt available in plastic kits

cheers
michael

Bburago, Maisto, Motormax, RBI, junk stuff at walmart, HotWorks Racing. There are many diecast companies that make stuff in 1:24-1:25th. Most of the maisto ones are just like..made to fit in the box. They are not always the right scale.

Miatso and motor max are reely easy to model with , plus they' re quite cheap
you can find them at tesco and woolworths and other shops like that!!

Re: 1/24 cale die-cast's?

it's true that maisto's models aren't an exact scale but still, they are pretty fine,i wouldn't say that they are easy to modify...I've just customized a Subaru Impreza( 1:30)...it's more difficult but definately more fun to customize smaller models...c'mon..everyone can customize 1:18 for example...but the beauty is in the details...smaller car- smaller details= more efforts..more precious result
