Scale model or die cast collection is not a hobby that many people follow, mainly because it requires dedication, patience and a good eye for detail. Only die-hard scale model collectors with time to spare and money to spend, take up this hobby. But to whom it matters, acquiring a coveted miniature diecast collectible which they’ve been dreaming about can be quite a fulfilling experience. Hence, although scale model collection has been an unpopular hobby initially, its been picking up pace fastmainly due to emergence of new diecast manufacturers and availability of great scale model collectibles at cheaper prices.
We are avid collectors of scale models of automobiles ourselves. But what distinguishes us from others is that we are interested in diecast miniature models that are rare, exotic and not that easily available. It is quite obvious that in the diecast scale model collector’s guild, obtaining a rare miniature model is a respectable achievement. So we searched far and wide for this quest. We visited numerous malls and we scoured every website online which we could find, and although every one of them claimed to fetch us these miniature piecesof art, we couldn’t find anything that captured our hearts and instilled in us a sense of longing, a feeling that every serious scale model collector out there is familiar with.
Wherever we looked, there were only the same manufacturers, the same Chevrolets, Ferraris and Harley Davidsons. There were no Puch or Moto Guzzis bikes, or the Hotchkiss Truck or a Ford Bus. Nothing collectors like us would call “Zara Hatke” or “More than the usual”.
This disappointment and dissatisfaction with what we saw, was what inspired us to come up with the idea of our own online e-tail shop, Scale Model Cart.com. This website is for the diecast collector who is seeking miniature works of art, something that adds value, uniqueness and is quite distinctive from the rest. We aim to provide you with scale model collectibles that can be proudly displayed in your display cases, and not packed and tucked away in an attic somewhere.
With ScaleModelCart.com we aspire to change the present industry standards. With brands that were big as the Cadillac or Dodge but still remained unheard of, and with scale model sizes that the average diecast collector hasn’t heard of, we seek to bring to the Indian market, options and varieties that were unheard of before.
There is a general perception among the many scale model collectors in India that bigger is always better. At ScaleModelCart.com, we say that the opposite can be just as true as well. We provide miniature diecast models that different from the conventional 1:18 or 1:24 scales but for the overwhelmingly defiant diecast fans that have to have everything “king size”, ScaleModelCart.com has something unique for them as well.
Through ScaleModelCart.com we aim to introduce our customers to diecast collectibles that are always more than the usual. You will be introduced to iconic automobiles that played a significant role in Indian history such as the Dukker Fiat, the grand old lady Ambassador, the workhorse Matador, the sporty Standard Motors Herald and the two wheeled king and queen of the Indian roads, the Jawa and the Lambretta. Our catalog of diecast scale models extend from the pre 1900s era through post Indian independence, Y2K to concept automobiles that will arrive in the future.
Last but not least, you can be sure whatever diecast product you obtain from ScaleModelCart.com, each one of them will have its own unique legacy and history. They will definitely be remarkable possessions in your repertoire with beauty that will fill you with happiness and admiration each time you look or feel them.
What we stand for is summed up in our tagline “Diecast –Get more than the usual” or as they say “Zara Hatke!”
