Hey folks. I just recently got a very big interest in collecting die cast models. Mainly 1:18 size [EDIT: I think I mean 1:24]. I really really like the Jada line. I think from the ones I've seen on my one jaunt to the toy department at Target, they are my favorite. My dad has picked up a couple here and there just thinking they look cool, but I picked up three models at Target. A Chrysler 300C from Dropstars (not sure if they're affiliated with Jada), then a Dub City GT40. Both black. I'll get pics soon. I'm interested in customizing as well. So if there are any suggestions for a newbie, I'm all ears. :wave:

Welcome to the board, and show some pictures. :wave:

Here are some web pics of the models I have.

Dropstars is actually a subdivision of Mattel, perhaps more associated with HotWheels .... Jada i just jada, no affiliations there.

Ah I see. I must be confused because Dropstar is affiliated with DUB.

and DUB is just a magazine publisher that publishes their own magazine which keept their contract open unlike Import Racer which was exclusive to JADA only. :wave: hope im not being too confusing

Naw, the info is helpful. Thanks. In any case i'm hoping to expand my collection a little. The new Magnums are pretty sweet looking. And I'll definately be getting the Charger SRT-8 when it comes out as well (can ya tell I'm a Dodge fan :D)

Here's another one I have. It's actually my dad's, but I'm including it in my collection.
