From an international perspective, you mustn’t miss the pictorial review of the Auto e Moto d’Epoca recently held in Padova, Italy. There’s also a wonderful article titled ‘From Russia with Love’, which concentrates on a few 1/43 scale die cast replicas from behind the ‘iron curtain’; and we also take a look at EMC Models’ hand-made 1/43 scale 1961 Cadillac ‘Jaqueline’ coupe, and Minichamps’ sensuous 1/18 scale Dubonnet Hispano-Suiza H6C ‘Xenia’ produced in resin.

There’s plenty more variety in Issue 29 of The Diecast Magazine. Whether it be this issue’s review of the Hot Wheels Elite 1/18 scale 1959 Ferrari 410 Superamerica, or the combined article on the CMC 1969 Ferrari 312P #25 and the AUTOart 1/18 scale Alfa Romeo 33TT 12, or the compilation of 2013 catalogues that you may have missed, there is definitely something for everyone in this issue of The Diecast Magazine.

Die cast delights continue in Issue 29 of The Diecast Magazine, with our ‘Shop Talk’ section packed with news and new-release diecast model information from a variety of model manufacturers around the world. ‘What’s Hot Online’ has extensive listings of notable die cast model cars traded via online auction websites, while collectors have their say in the ‘Readers’ Page’ and share their collections with us in ‘Collectors’ Post’. Of course, it’s all in the only diecast collector magazine with the diecast X-factor: The Diecast Magazine.
