Diecast Cars from the movie Redline

Price: 39.99

Now I didn’t watch the movie Redline (came out in April of 2007), but it did interest me mostly because if was a movie starring cars, bikes and hooked up trucks and SUVs.

Here are some of the cars featured in the move and can be bought as diecast vehicles.

Ladies and Gentalmen, start you diecast engines!

Introducing the only blog site I know (there are probably sites out there… but I refuse to look for them) that is about the world of diecast cars, trucks and other vehicles related to vehicular movement.

1968 Pontiac Firebird 400 from Diecast Fast

1968 Pontiac Firebird 400 – Verdoro Green (Lane Exact Detail) 1/18

From Diecast Fast.com

So if your wondering what the first paragraph means, we shall take a closer examination.

I will be blogging about what is currently for sale in diecast cars of many scales from 1/64 to 1/10. While I may focus on a few players in the diecast field (AUTO Art, Jada Toys, Ertl, Hotwheels, Muscle Machines and Lane Exact Details), I will also look at and review other diecast toy/hobbiest makers like Ricko and Highway 61.

The scales I will most focus on will be the 1/18 scale and the 1/24. They are the most popular scales for model cars and model sets. Even the cars you put together tend to be at this scale. I personally like 1/18 as it can have more detail, but I am a fan of the 1/24 for many reason you will eventually see come a year from now (yup, I’m thinking about the future).

I will also talk about what is going on in the industry (with whatever news I can get). I’ll try to get stuff that is going to come out, why it can’t come out, or why it should come out.


Yes a major focus on die-cast vehicles…. but wait there is more!!! Why not include stuff that is vehicle like? Aww heck, why not? I love Transformers (especially the alternators) and I think from time to time I will show what is new with those vehicles. Besides, some of them are made of diecast so I’m not too far off.

Also, when I am not paying attention to transforming vehicles, I will occasionally look into other types of toy vehicles. G.I. Joe is famous for its toy trucks, cars and what ever the heck you call those other vehicles. MA.S.K. ( I DO NOT REMEMBER WHAT THE INITIALS MEAN… AND YES i COULD JUST LOOK IT UP lol)  has trasforming motocycle, a truck and a car… Barbie has a car too. So does Bratz.

Come to think of it… there are allot of places I can go with this (and probably will) from diecast vehicles to video games dealing with vehicles. Man it just gets better.

Nevertheless, my over all focus is diecast cars as you will see eventually. Of course, every so often you get that feeling after reading a few back to back posts that I may have gone in some other direction… no way man DIECAST RULEZ!!!

Until next time.
