Diecast Car Collection of the Year 2019

It’s about time to look back and see what I achieved this year! This year went well and I ended up picking fewer 1:18 diecast cars(just one more than last year) but this year’s collection is not about quantity but about the quality! I picked five cars but the variety is diverse! In terms of brands Lamborghini took the top spot in Cars eating up 3 respectable spaces!

Bburago - Ferrari FXXK Evo

Lets start with my favorite 1:18 scale cars… The first in this list is Bburago Signature series Ferrari FXXK Evo in red. This was announced early this year(news coverage here) and I managed to get my hands on this around September. To be frank I don’t like Bburago Ferraris as much Mattels, but this Ferrari FXXK Evo changed my perception all together and made a Fan of this red beauty.

Motormax - 1961 Chevrolet Corvette Mako Shark

Next up is this sexy 1961 Chevrolet Corvette in Mako Shark livery by Motormax. I have been in look out for this Chevrolet Mako Shark since I this in AUTOart’s website agues back but cannot get my hands on that due to lack of stock, import difficulty etc. so when I saw this in the display rack I grabbed it without thinking twice! Though no where near the build of AUTOart but a worthy alternative(on a budget) for sure.

Motormax - Lamborghini Gallardo LP560 - 4 Super Trofeo

Next come the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Super Trofeo in black by Motormax… If I have to be called a fanboy of one single brand that would be Lamborghini, I like everything about these cars and wanted to have a entire collection(if possible) so picking this Gallardo LP560-4 Super Trofeo is not a big surprise! I picked it from Hamleys, Bangalore the very next week after the Mako Shark over shooting my diecast hobby budget but I still went for it.

Maisto - Lamborghini Centenario

Then comes a subtle yet super sexy Lamborghini Centenario by Maisto! Yeah, not the exclusive but the base variant because I wanted this carbon fiber variant! I been waiting for Maisto to release a exclusive version in carbon-fiber but that dint happened so settled for this and loving it very much!

Maisto - Lamborghini Huracan Performante

Finally my favorite color Lamborghini in their entire lineup… yeah its the green AKA Verde Mantis Lamborghini Huracan Performante by Maisto. I already have a same shade Lamborghini Huracan LP610-4(review here) by Bburago, and I love it like hell so when I saw this Performante variant in Modelart (hobby store in Bangalore) I couldn’t resist the urge and billed it almost immediately! I would have loved the gold wheels like the AUTOart variant but these black do look good on this car!

Year 2019's collection is not about quantity but about the quality!
