New releases available now!
3 March 2026
A couple of shipments of new diecast have arrived this week, including a new casting from Kaido House! Here's a run down of what's new on the website.
From the Theme Automotive Silver Series, we have the new Rally Racers. The set of 5 includes:
1/5 ’87 Audi Quattro
2/5 Honda S800 Racing
3/5 Ford Escort RS 2000
4/5 ’71 Datsun 510
5/5 Lancia Rally 037
From 2026 case: GDG44-957R
Also from the Theme Automotive Silver Series, we have the new Pantone Mix 1 for 2026. The set of 6 includes:
1/6 Nissan Fairlady Z
2/6 ’69 Ford Mustang Boss 302
3/6 Twin Mill III
4/6 Kool Kombi
5/6 ’69 COPO Camaro
6/6 Porsche 934/5
Being a set of 6 in a case of 10 has meant we've sold out on pre-orders - we had expected two sets per case when we originally placed the order for these.
There are double ups of the Fairlady Z, Twin Mill III and Kool Kombi which are available to order individually on the website.

Here's the latest arrivals from Kaido House, all available now on the website:
161 Datsun Pro Street BUTA V1
180 Toyota Sprinter Trueno Kaido Street V1 - New Casting!
216 BMW M3 KAIDO GT V2
226 Chevrolet Silverado Kaido Works V3
This new release takes the timeless appeal of the Kaido House Datsun 510 Pro-Street and gives it a fun pink pig theme. Yes that's right, the Japanese graphics “ぶたちゃん” (Buta-chan) translates to “Little Pig”. Which makes me think maybe the 00 number in the circle is the pigs nose!
The Japanese graphics featured on the rear quarter panels is "Imai Racing" and the rear wing has "yopparasu" which translates to “to make someone drunk” - you might expect some intoxicating performance from this little Pro-Street racer.
The iconic AE86 finally receives the Kaido House treatment, and this new casting release arrives in the legendary Panda Trueno two-tone white and black — made famous by the Initial D anime.
Styled with unmistakable Tokyo street-racer influence, this striking livery captures the true spirit of the AE86 — a car synonymous with grassroots drifting, touge racing, and Japanese high-performance car culture.
Kaido House gives the classic Trueno its signature design: an aggressive lowered stance, deep-dish wheels, expressive graphics, and finely executed 1:64 detail. Not only does the hood open, but the headlights pop up too.
European performance meets Kaido street style. The second version of this iconic E30 BMW M3 with the full Kaido House treatment - widened fenders, aggressive aero, slammed stance, and race-inspired bodywork.
The final release in this lot is pure American muscle, Kaido style, the Silverado returns for a third round of the Kaido Works treatment, opening hood and rear tailgate, alloy wheels, real rubber tyres, finished in deep dark green metallic with bold graphics.
We covered the Premium Fast and Furious Mix 1 release in the previous blog but have received a second shipment of these, so they're available again on the website.
Here's what's in the case:
1/5 ’95 Mitsubishi Eclipse (x1 - not available on its own)
2/5 Mercedes-Benz 500 SEL (x2)
3/5 ’69 Ford Mustang Boss 302 (x2)
4/5 W Motors Lykan Hypersport (x3)
5/5 Toyota FJ Cruiser (x2)
From case HNW46-956N
We have more stock on the way so check back soon for the next blog update.
The latest additions from Kaido House reveal an interesting trend in diecast designs, especially with the influence of pop culture and automotive performance. The Datsun Pro Street BUTA V1, with its playful graphics, suggests a shift towards more whimsical interpretations of vehicles. However, it raises questions about how this reflects the National Casino evolving tastes within diecast community where nostalgia often meets modern trends.
