The term die-cast toy here refers to any toy or collectible model produced by using the die casting method. The toys are made of metal and plastic, the metal used commonly is zamak (or Mazak), an alloy of zinc and aluminum. Zamak is also referred to as white metal or pot metal. The most common die-cast toys are scale models of automobiles, aircraft, construction equipment and trains, although almost anything can be produced by this method.

Die-Cast Truck Replica - Kenworth W900 Log Carrier, 1:32 Scale, Model# 13743ReviewsI bought this online hoping for better quality than the cheap plastic trucks at Toys R Us. I assumed (wrongfully) that since is was expensive and 'metal' it would be good. It turns out the cab and crane arm are metal, but everthing else is plastic and very cheap. If you want to pay a lot for a truck to sit on a shelf it will work. If your child actually wants to play with the truck don't buy it. Very cheap, broke almost immediately, thrown out soon thereafter. I was a little disappointed with the Kenworth log truck. It looks good and there are a lot of nice features, but it is not very sturdy. The hitch for the trailer is very short and as a result the trailer doesn't stay connected when my son goes to pull it. We had to attach some weight to the bar where the trailer connects to the hitch. Also, the seat that is attached at the top of the truck, by the crane, fell off as we were removing it from the box. I only give this item a generous 2 stars because the delivery and packaging of this item was quick, efficient and attractive. Yes, it looks nice even in person when it's all pacakged up but this truck was so poorly made. I bought this truck and another one by the same company for my 2 sons for Christmas (ages 3 & 6) and it's now January 4th, and both of the trucks are basically trashed and have been as of December 27th. My boys were not rough with these trucks and pieces have been snapping off left and right. The cabs of the trucks are metal but absolutely everything else on them is cheap and very breakable plastic. If you are buying this ONLY to look at it from afar - then it would be fine but any sort of movement will be sure to break something! Average Rating: |

Bruder Caterpillar Excavator - 1:16 Scale, Model# 02439ReviewsThis was a Christmas gift for my grandson. The Excavator looks great but in my opinion is not worth the money. The shovel locks up and requires an adult to put it back together again. After this happening several times my grandson became frustrated with the toy and interest was lost. He liked how the Excavator rotates around and the tracks are well built. Average Rating: |

Johnny Reb Pistol & Holster SetReviewsThis is a great play gun -- the nicest one I've seen for kids! It appears to be very well-made (it's actually kind of heavy!) and the design is clean with complementary details. The holster included is a fun addition, however, we have noticed that the gun sometimes slips out the back when the kids are playing around. We have not put caps in it, so I can't comment on how those work, but my son loves playing with it and was *ecstatic* to receive it for Christmas. Kind of expensive but it is the type I wanted. It is higher quality than the caps available for it. my seven year old loved the gun along with his cowboy attire for holloween. It is durable and works great with the caps suggested. I say spend a little more and you will definelty be pleased. i bought this cap pistol for my grandson, it is a good size for small hands, i think he has enjoyed playing with it i got this gun today and it is so fun i am almost out of caps so get ALOT. it is very durable and it feels real. Nothing about it is bad. It is probably the best thing i have bought off amazon. And the price is great. Average Rating: |

Camouflage Double Barrel Shotgun, Wood & Steel, Diecast Doubl Hammer, Fires Roll CapsReviewsMy 6 year old LOVES it!!! I was worried because it was more expensive than some of the other pieces I looked at. It was well worth it!! It is a solid, weighted, and realistic shotgun that will last forever! The double hammers do require a bit of thumb muscle to pull but he manages it with no problems. Now his soldier 'suit' is complete. This is perfect!! We bought this gun for our son who loves the military and anything camo. He loves this gun and wants to take it with him everywhere he goes. It is very durable and well made. He actually sleeps with this gun every night, so it was worth the money for us:+) Average Rating: |

Liberty Classics Chevy Street Rod Engine Replica, 1/6th Scale Die CastReviewsOne problem with buying on line is relying on words rather than touch. I wanted a model to assemble not an assembled model. I got a nice assembled model engine, my bad. I am supremely pleased with the quality and accuracy of this model. I needed to inspire my son to finish his project engine in the garage and this gave him the spark to do just that. Yeah!! Thanks so much. P.S. The movable parts are a nice bonus. I bought this replicia of a Chev. hot rod engine for a friend of mine that is building a motor like this for his truck. I was amazed by the detail and the workmanship. He loved it and I think it inspired him to finish his project. Well worth the money and shipped quickly!! Job well done, Ralph This replica of a Chevy 350 Hot Rod Engine is so exquisitly detailed even all the way to the brass Carb return spring. The detailing is so it`s un-believeable.

Standard Catalog Of Die-Cast Vehicles: Identification And Values, Revised Edition (Standard Catalog of Die-Cast Vehicles)ReviewsFirst of all, I HATE the BIG UGLY picture of American Car Racer...do not know his name, on the cover of the book.

The Big Book of Superfast Matchbox Toys: 1969-2004: Product Lines and Indexes (Schiffer Book for Collectors)ReviewsI have purchased both of Mack's MBSF books. This one sat there for a while pretty much unused, whereas Vol 1 got opened every day. However, as I get more into what this volume actually contains, I am finding in it a wealth of additional MBSF reference material e.g. on model number and name indexes, variation themes & product lines, etc, etc. This is making it a very valuable guide and companion supplement to Vol 1, especially given the wealth of MB issues since the 1990's. I consider it well worth the asking price for the serious MB collector. Give it time and it will prove its worth. Helpful guide, however, it is part of a two volume set and you really need both volumes to effectively use this guide. Listed above is Volume 2 and it is loaded with pictures. The information that gives relavence to the pictures is contained in Volume 1. (Volume 1 has a blue title block and several red squares on the cover.) The 4 star rating is for the pair, this book by itself would only get 2 stars from this user. Average Rating: |

When Mattel's Hotwheels toy cars exploded onto the market in 1968, venerable Matchbox Toys met the challenge with its Superfast line. The successful result is now presented in the largest book on Matchbox Toys ever produced - so big it is two volumes that celebrate 35 years of Matchbox Superfast production with over 7000 color photos and over 10,000 listed variations! The detailed, beautiful photographs are a great assistance to collectors for identification and color reference... |
