About Diecastry
Built by a collector, for collectors. A proper catalogue, a real marketplace, and reviews written by people who actually own the models — not by anonymous strangers chasing affiliate fees.

Every model card has brand, manufacturer, scale, year, retail price, edition limit, material, photos and ownership data — not a shop listing dressed up as a database.
See what other collectors actually own — their showcase pieces, their most-loved models, their most expensive find. Follow the ones whose taste you trust.
Listings come from collectors selling pieces from their own collections. Prices are in your currency, condition is described by the actual owner, and you can message them directly.
Every review is signed by a collector who has the model in their catalogue. Six rating dimensions — casting, paint, packaging, value for collectors, price, and rarity — not a one-line "5 stars amazing" drive-by.
Every car brand and every model maker gets its own page — history, country, full catalogue of models at every scale, top collectors. Useful both for browsing and for the model makers themselves.
Comments on models, direct messages between collectors, wishlist alerts when a piece you want hits the marketplace.
Diecast collecting has been a community-organised hobby for sixty years and the tools collectors actually use online — spreadsheets, Facebook groups, forum threads from 2007, eBay search filters — have not aged well. The information lives in inboxes and old screenshots. The marketplaces are run by shops that don't care about the piece you're selling. The reviews on retailer pages are written by people who haven't held the model.
Diecastry exists to put the catalogue, the marketplace and the conversation in one place — and to make all three good enough that you'd actually want to use them.
Free forever to catalogue every model you own. Pro tier unlocks unlimited photos and marketplace listings when you're ready.
