Not Just a Toys

Diecast, are miniature or toys that make the smaller scale size from the real one. There is so many type of Diecast, like from scale type until car type like JDM, supercar, or classic car. Diecast is not just about cars, but diecast also contain mini scale airplane, trucks, bus, train. But there is some people too, that like make a town that all type of diecast included in miniature town.

There is so many type scale of diecast, but basicly that collector find is scale between 1:64, 1:32, 1:24, 1:18 the smaller one (1:64) is used by Hotwheels, Matchbox, Majorette and other else but not for 1:32 scale. 1:32 Scale is pretty big diecast, diecast with this scale have an interesting detail from the interior until the body of the cars.

1:24 and 1:18 scale of diecast cars that very big, the positive side about this scale because is different from other else start from the detail. Scale with this big are made super extra detail, because are much easier work in bigger scale then 1:64, so we cannot see the high detail in smaller scale.Bigger scale ussualy they added engine of the cars, this make the car so fabulous, sexy and elegant. Not just added more engine, but from the factory they add more detail in the dashboard from the tape (radio), speedometer, steering wheels. Not just for collecting, but this scale for diecast photography or just put it and show off.

So, diecast have so many scale so people turn out and found an idea again for use diecast. People use it diecast photography, so in here we use our collection for took a photo just like real cars, some of people too they make some diorama for make there diecast look like a real size. But not many people can make some diorama that look like a real, make diorama for scale 1:64 need more some challenge in there, because diorama become nice if the have a highly detail, with 1:64 scale we need make some furniture that small and detail. I have a friend, check out his facebook (Boll Kapol Opat-opat). He really good in make diorama for every scale diecast, and other then that he really patient make some little things.

Diorama is a 3D miniature, that can make nice beautifull view for our collection. Its just like took a photo without background, so diorama help to make our collection better to see. Make a diorama its very difficult, not so many hand can make a diorama that contain highly detail and natty. But from my friend, we could use something that around us my friend make diorama garage from hardboard and the result its really perfect, he just only added some stickers so make them just like real. Look at the picture on the bottom, its really small… smaller then our little finger, but if the work be done in patient, the result will be perfect, but need so many practice.

What was the Best Hot Wheels Super Treasure Hunt of 2015?

Ford mustang boss 302
Now, Hotwheels are move on to 2016…. One year back, they made some pretty nice threasure hunts (rubber tire) and like the lamley group said.. they will nominate the best and worst threasure hunt every year. Now, 2015  Hotwheels is not very bad for me.. because they make it just so detail like the real size.


Ferrari 599xx
Kool Kombi
Hhmmm… for me, the best Threasure Hunts is whichis kool kombi/Ford mustang 302 or Ferrari 599xx. I want both of them here in my showcase but the price is to damn high bro, hahaha… Why 599xx? Because for me this is the last threasure hunt from Ferrari, the bad side start from next year Ferrari not allow contract with Hotwheels anymore, so.. there is no Ferrari in HW anymore. So for me, they made it really nice and sexy… if you look the color and the stripe on the wheels, that’s make the car become sexy. Why Kool Kombi or Ford Mustang 302? Because both of them have the  very high detail, like the ford mustang.. there is detail on the wheels that’s make that car cooler than other, or if you look the Kool Kombi, Hotwheels are success full to make it up the detail for the head lamp and the wheels that’s make this car so classic! And the wood sticker, make the car so detail and very comfortable for anyone look..

BMW 1M

First time, when I start to collected some toys I collect matchbox because for me matchbox was nice from the detail. But from this year, maybe about from march I start to collect Hotwheels because for me Hotwheels are more fun to collect and the fans of hotwheels is pretty lot then matchbox.. also if I collect Hotwheels, is rather easier to sell it  but if Matchbox is rather difficult to sell it but if the price of pisces is high then the price of Hotwheels / pcs.


But Now!! Bmw 1M, are ready to introduce to the world… Bmw 1M from Matchbox, are really nice, and very sexy from the paint until the detail. The design of Bmw 1M, was done by Miquel lopez, check out the Instargam (@devilminer). The new dark color, new type of wheels, and new carbon fiber sticker up on the hood made the Bmw 1M so sexy, and make our eyes fresh !! But Matchbox, not just released one type of Bmw 1m the black one, they already released the blue and orange one, not very cool and sporty but not bad for the detail, but good for collection. 

Look, The carbon fiber !!

sexy

Usually, Hotwheels only Rp 15.000 ,- / pcs in Indonesia, but now in 2015 increase 2 times of it become Rp 30.000 ,- / pcs and the most bad part of it, there are so many mafia in every store that’s make some of Hotwheels items are bad in some store.




But, because of in store so many mafia, people usually just get to online shop to buy some Hotwheels… the price to its relative high they sell it usually from Rp 30.000 until Rp 1.500.000,- for Threasure hunt.

Land Rover Defender 110

Land Rover Defender 110, now its gonna shake the world again! From the lamely blog, mbx now (matchbox) will make a new Land Rover Defender 110. The new 110 from Matchbox is really nice for me, and the decal they use it is very compatible for the car. From the detail, I like the front lamp and also the wheels, is really elegant and of become sporty.



Land Rover Defender 110, the decal for the new variation is become ambulance car, before this version out Mbx make a expedition car with the Landy but now with the red stripe and new wheels make the Landy sporty and elegant. There are lots of defender 110 too, but for me this casting is the very best model...

reading race #SEP3

My opinion about reading race is very nice, because for me reading race can make us become gumption to read more about English artictle and English books. But for me, maybe I only read some of English blog artictle like the Lamley Group blog. Other then that, I really don’t like read, I only read just with my favorit topics.

Its little bit bring my benefit, first it can make me gumption to read English artictle “not book because I don’t like reading books and I don’t have it hihihi…” but this program can make us become read more about English word, and become expert in English.
