Has the company rebounded or have their casting been leased/sold out to another company? Diecast Direct has new releases for the company in the early part of this year in both 1/18 and 1/43. Any info? https://www.diecastdirect.com/asp_modules/catalogs.asp?RChar=S&Mfg=YM |

I'm not sure about other parts in the world, but in Europe they sell 1/18 and 1/43 scale model from Yat-ming under the name Lucky Diecast now. |

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!

When I look at that Bentley, and I see the price is a mere $15, I stand on that slippery slope that is collecting 1/43. If I was just getting into diecast collecting, it's the scale I'd choose to focus on since the sheer variety available is unmatched in 1/64, which focuses mainly on muscle cars. Unfortunately, I'm too vested in 1/64 at this point, and all I can hope for is that Yat Ming/Lucky decides to release it in 1/64 too. |

Muscle Car

It is an interesting question. I know the 1/43rd Edsel has been around for quite a while as have some of the other 1/43rd castings - my guess would be someone bought the molds for these or even the name. But one can also hope maybe for a "rebirth" like JL and see some new 1/64th models.
