Default For the week of May 7, 2006

This week I'll focus on very affordable items you can pick up to stick your toe into the water and get your collection started, or just to see if collecting any of these die cast things are of any interest to you.

The first two items are 1/87 scale German cats--the Panther and Tiger that is. They are both from Schuco and are available from German Aircooled at only $5.65 a pop. The links are:

Next we have a 1/48 SpecCast New Zealand F4-U Corsair offered by Pete's at only $15.00. You can view it here:

Or you can opt for a 1/72 Corgi Corsair in US livery from Pete's for just $12.99. See it here:

Our last item for you die cast beginners (and others looking to pick up an item at a good and low price) is a 1/72 Dragon Tiger I (Early Production), 8/2. PzGrenDiv. "Das Reich", Russia 1943 offered by 3000 Toys at only $10.95. You can check it out here:
