Custom Diecasts from the Workbenches

Builders, Parts & Brands

People often ask us if we create custom diecast cars. We don’t.

Diecast Heroes documents the creative minds behind diecast customisation — the builders, modifiers and makers who bring these ideas to life.

Some of them are privately enjoying it as a hobby, others have made this their business.

Over time we’ve come to know many of the people who do this as part time or full time work.

We are happy to be able to present a guide which may help you to find what you are looking for.

This guide exists to help collectors, enthusiasts and car owners find the right creators for what they are looking for.
