Annual model awards, De Tomaso story and jet aircraft by de Havilland.

It’s awards time! Our annual appreciation of the models that we’ve reviewed over the previous 12 issues – the deserving winners are revealed and detailed. The rise and fall of De Tomaso is charted, and de Havilland’s jet aircraft are investigated in model form as we conclude our celebrations of the pioneering company’s centenary. Hard-to-find fire engines that were given away with Reader’s Digest books are looked at too. In the news, there is a real blast from the past with the launch of Raleigh’s Chopper in diecast form.

All your regular favourites are there too, of course, including Desert Island Diecasts, collecting Matchbox Superfast by number, vintage Dinky of the month, our monthly glimpse into the editor’s collection, and over 50 brand new model releases detailed and reviewed. There’s also the latest industry news, plus auction news and price guides, and readers’ letters – it’s another bumper issue packed with all manner of things new and old in the world of diecast.
