Justin’s Diecasts Has A New Look!

28 Jan

Justin’s Diecasts has been updated with a new look and feel. It should allow for easier navigation and a better user experience. The Car List has also been updated and is faster than ever. The Links page has a bunch of new diecast and car related links.

I wanted the design to reflect the current design trend of clean white space and the top banner randomly changes the header image with each refresh.

Let me know what you think in the comments!

Ducati 1098s Tricolore

15 Dec

Maisto makes some very nice 1:18 scale motorcycles and this Ducati 1098s Trioclore is no exception. The Tricolore(or tricolor) tradition ws started in 1985 with the Ducati 750 F1 and the 1098s is the latest Tricolore. It was released in 2007 with only 1013 made worldwide. That’s less than the highly sought after Ducati Desmosedici RR of which 1500 examples were made.

I paid $2.97 at a big box store and I consider myself lucky for finding one. It’s a very nice model and Maisto has done an excellent job recreating the tricolor paint scheme. I hope they make the Desmosedici RR!

Now for some pictures!
