The Diecast Zone · Model Car Club Since 1994
Diecast Collector Forums
Eight forums, every scale, and thirty years of shop talk — new arrivals, restorations, reviews, and the finds you won’t see posted anywhere else, with the full archive back to 2002 restored and searchable. Free to Register.
Over 1.2 million posts and replies have been added back to the forums from the original site to their respective Forums. All are searchable.
The Forums main page look is new. Colored and rounded icons added. Stats will be updated when this project is complete. Still running some checks.
These posts go back 24 years, when there was an update implemented to the old forums. There is no data older than that. Images from 20 plus years ago that were hosted by Photobucket and Snapfish do not appear, because those hosting sites are long gone, but the Flickr-hosted ones should still be there.
To resurrect an old post, simply cut and paste the text into a new post, or just post the link to the old post, and then chat about it. The old posts are for your research and tagged as “closed". So, you can not reply to one there (they are closed because it would open up a million plus pages for spammers and bots to spam on) New spam and bot protection features were added today also.
Also please note that il mio paesano Tony Perrone will be the heavy and will come down hard on any stubborn folks that say they can’t search for something, or that it should have been done like this or like that instead.
