New Kids on the Die-Cast Block

Better known as one of the top radio-controlled hobby manufacturers in the world HPI (Hobby Products International) have now branched out into the diecast field. Earlier this year (2008) they announced a new line of models for the popular precision die-cast market. Fully licensed and crafted from detailed drawings supplied by the car manufacturers, HPI die-cast cars are painstaking recreations of modern classics and vintage road race and rally cars.

HPI have opted to release their line in the 1:43 scale but despite the small size, incredible attention to detail has been paid to make the shape of the cars as true to scale as possible. Fine exterior details like radiators, brake discs and calipers, door mirrors, wings, cooling ducts, exhaust, headlights and tail lights, tow hooks, radio attenae and colou-matched paint and sponsor logos combine to make these models extremely realistic and worthy of any serious collectors attention.

In addition to the exterior details, each car has a fully painted and detailed interior, complete with every detail seen on the original car, including padded roll cage, racing seats, fire extinguisher, steering wheel, dashboard, switches and even defroster lines in the rear window. Particular attention has been taken toflush-mount the window sections for extra realism. Many models even include a removable engine cover to show the engine detail.

Each HPI die-cast car model come mounted on a plastic plinth with clear plastic protective case, and the cars can be removed from the plinth for use in diorama displays. As an extra measure of attention to detail, even the bottom of each car features details such as aerodynamic undertrays, full exhaust system, transmission components, swaybars and more, even though the car may never be removed from the plinth.

Every HPI die-cast car model is a strictly limited production run, so when they're gone, they are reaaly GONE!. So collect them while you can.
