Exciting Expansions at Diecast Model Centre: New Brands, Better Stock
We're thrilled to share some major developments happening at Diecast Model Centre as we continue to grow and enhance our offerings for collectors, enthusiasts, and gift buyers alike. Whether you're a seasoned collector hunting for that perfect addition to your display, a parent looking for quality toys that will last, or someone seeking the ideal gift for a model enthusiast, these exciting changes are designed with you in mind.

Expanding Our Horizons

The biggest news? We're expanding significantly! Not only are we increasing the number of items within our existing ranges, but we're also welcoming several exciting new brands to our collection. This expansion reflects our commitment to providing collectors with more choice, better value, and access to premium quality models across every price point and interest area.
Our growth means more variety, more scales, more brands, and ultimately more opportunities to find exactly what you're looking for – whether that's a budget-friendly starter model or a premium collector's piece.

A Note on Our Core Brands

Before we dive into our exciting new additions, we want to address availability of our beloved core brands – Bburago, Maisto, and Welly. Stock availability has been proving challenging with these popular manufacturers recently. We've had a small delivery of Bburago and Maisto arrive, but demand remains incredibly strong. The Street Fire cars and all motorcycle models are selling out particularly fast, so if you've been eyeing something specific from these ranges, we'd recommend acting quickly.

Welcome Back, Britains Farm Toys

After careful consideration, we've reintroduced the legendary Britains farm toys to our lineup. For generations, Britains has been synonymous with exceptional quality and remarkable durability in the farming toy sector. These aren't just toys – they're investments that can withstand years of play while maintaining their collector appeal. With Christmas approaching, we anticipate strong demand for these trusted classics that have delighted children and collectors for decades.

Expanding the Farming Range: From Budget to Premium

To complement Britains, we're creating a comprehensive farming collection that caters to every budget and preference:
SIKU will soon join our range as the perfect budget-conscious alternative to Britains. Known for their solid construction and attention to detail at accessible price points, SIKU models offer excellent value without compromising on quality – ideal for gift buyers looking for something special without breaking the bank.
At the premium end, we're introducing Wiking and ROS – two brands renowned for their exceptional detail and collector-grade quality. These models represent the pinnacle of farming model craftsmanship, perfect for serious collectors who demand the finest details and gift buyers seeking something truly impressive.
We're also reintroducing Universal Hobbies, a brand that bridges the gap between affordability and premium quality, offering collectors beautifully detailed farming models with excellent build quality.

Scalextric Returns in a Big Way

While we stocked a few Scalextric cars many years ago, we're now proud to offer a comprehensive Scalextric experience. Our new range includes complete sets, individual cars, and essential spares – everything needed to build and maintain the perfect racing circuit. With Christmas on the horizon, we expect these to be incredibly popular gifts for racing enthusiasts of all ages, from children getting their first taste of slot car racing to adults rekindling childhood memories.

Introducing CMJ - Exceptional Value at Entry Level

At the entry-level sector, we're excited to introduce CMJ - Jian Feng Juan Toys. Don't let the modest selection fool you – these models represent extraordinary value, particularly in 1:43 scale. What makes them special? They feature opening doors – a feature almost unheard of at this price point and scale. Even their packaging rivals that of much more expensive models, showing the manufacturer's attention to detail and quality presentation. For gift buyers, these offer premium features at budget-friendly prices.

Website Improvements for Better Shopping

We've made subtle but important changes to our website design, focusing on creating a cleaner, more user-friendly experience. The most significant improvement is our new stock availability system. Gone are the basic "in stock" or "out of stock" notifications. Now you'll see actual stock counters, giving you clear visibility of whether we have plenty of a particular model or if you should act quickly before we sell out – particularly helpful during busy periods like the Christmas shopping season.

Looking Ahead

These expansions represent our ongoing commitment to serving collectors, enthusiasts, and gift buyers at every level – from children receiving their first model to serious collectors seeking premium pieces. With Christmas approaching and these exciting new ranges arriving, we're confident there's something special waiting for everyone.
Keep an eye on our website as we continue to add new arrivals from these fantastic brands, with many more exciting brands to come in the coming months. Whether you're planning ahead for Christmas gifts or simply can't wait to explore our expanding collection, there's never been a more exciting time to be part of the Diecast Model Centre community.
