Diecast Models are constructed
primarily from diecast ZAMAK (or Mazak),
an alloy of zinc and aluminium. Zamak is also
referred to as white metal or pot metal. The
most common die-cast toys are scale models of
automobiles, aircraft, construction equipment
and trains, although almost anything can be
produced by this method. with some smaller
components typically molded in plastic to allow
for greater detail. These models arrive
pre-painted and require little or no assembly to
display.
