Diecast Model World

Diecast Model World is a British magazine for collectors of diecast model vehicles.
History and profile
Diecast Model World premiered in 2011. The first issue featured articles on Bristol buses by Mike Forbes, Corgi fairground models by Alistair Golding, vintage fire engines by Mike Pigott, Dinky forklifts by Roger Wynn, and Japanese models of Austin cars by Andrew Ralston. There was also a roundup of new products, a feature on classic models and their real-life counterparts by Malcolm Bates, and an article about promotional model trucks from supermarkets by Mike King. (King died just prior to the magazine's release.) The magazine is self-published by Mike Forbes, editor of Ian Allan Publishing's classic transport journal Vintage Roadscene and former editor of Diecast Collector Magazine.
Diecast Model World is published quarterly, in January, April, July and October. It is available by direct subscription and at select toy fairs and swapmeets.
