Meet the Makers launches in May’s Diecast Collector
The May issue of Diecast Collector celebrates the people, models and stories that keep the hobby thriving. This month sees the launch of our
brand-new Meet the Makers series, as Keith D’Souza sits down with the founders of Impact Model Cars to discuss how the company began and
where it’s heading next.
Elsewhere, Ian McDermott’s Restoration Series reaches a satisfying stage as paint is applied to the Dinky Alfa Romeo project car, while our designer
Mike takes on a restoration challenge of his own with a battered Superfast Londoner bus. From restoration to rare models, Jarrod Cotter examines a striking Corgi 1:48 Bristol F.2b Fighter, Steve Coles explores a wartime Daimler bus, and Alex Winson reports from the 75th anniversary Spielwarenmesse in
Nuremberg.
