Featured Collector: 1:18 Gallery by Eddie

I'm a long time fan of Eddie, his 1:18 collection is truly an awesome sight to see. He doesn't only have a vast collection of diecast models but he takes pictures of his collection in a way that they would look real. Eddie just joined us in our club just a few weeks back and shared his most treasured photos and collection.

One of our member, Mike(MMC) was lucky enough to visit Eddie in California to see personally his collection. And shared to us his awesome diecast collection. Note, this are just part of Eddie's collection.

And these are Eddie's diecast in exquisite panoramic shots! I think he travels with around 6-7 diecast in the trunk of his vehicle always looking for that perfect shot.







And here is a sample of how Eddie takes pictures of his beloved diecast...

    superb photography. this is done without a DSLR too, and it still looks professionally done.

    and oh yes i certainly thought they were real cars. i was wondering, wow he has some nice 1:1 scale cars. :-D
