About Model Car Planet
More Than a Store — A Destination for Collectors
Model Car Planet exists for one reason: to give diecast collectors the shopping experience they actually deserve. A curated catalog of premium scale models, honest product information, packaging that protects your investment, and delivery you can track to your door — anywhere in the world.
Whether you're hunting for a museum-quality 1:18 CMC masterpiece or picking up your first Bburago to start a collection, you've come to the right place.
Our Story
Model Car Planet was born from a simple frustration. As collectors ourselves, we spent years buying diecast models online — only to deal with vague product descriptions, careless packaging, and shops that treated scale models like ordinary merchandise. We knew collectors deserved better.
So we built the store we always wanted to buy from. Based in Europe, Model Car Planet is an independent specialty shop focused entirely on diecast scale models. We don't sell electronics, clothing, or random accessories. Scale models are all we do, and that focus is what makes us different.
Every model in our catalog is hand-selected. We work directly with leading manufacturers and authorized distributors to bring you authentic, high-quality replicas — from affordable entry-level pieces to rare limited editions. Our catalog of over 10,000 models spans the full spectrum of the hobby, and we add new arrivals every week.
What Sets Us Apart
Curated, Not Cluttered We don't list everything we can find. Every model is chosen for its quality, accuracy, and collectibility. If it doesn't meet our standards, it doesn't make the catalog.
Collector-Grade Packaging Diecast models are fragile — we treat them that way. Every order is double-boxed with foam protection, specifically designed to keep your model safe across thousands of miles. Your model arrives in the same condition it left our hands.
Worldwide Tracked Shipping We deliver to over 100 countries with full tracking on every order. Orders over €150 ship free. No surprises, no hidden fees.
60-Day Hassle-Free Returns Changed your mind? No problem. We offer a straightforward 60-day return policy — no complicated forms, no excuses.
Hand-Inspected Before Shipping Every single model is personally inspected before it leaves our warehouse. We check paint quality, packaging integrity, and details. If something isn't right, we catch it before you do.
Our Collection
We carry models from the brands collectors trust most — including AutoArt, Minichamps, CMC, Kyosho, Norev, Solido, Spark, Schuco, Bburago, Maisto, Welly, GreenLight, Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Jada Toys, IXO, and TSM Model.
Our core focus is on the two most popular collector scales — 1:18 and 1:24 — but our catalog covers everything from large-format 1:5 display pieces to ultra-compact 1:160 N-scale models for railway enthusiasts.
And it's not just cars. Model Car Planet stocks motorcycles, trucks, buses, aircraft, ships, construction vehicles, and agricultural machinery. If it has wheels, wings, or a hull — chances are we have a scale model of it.
We organize our entire catalog by scale, car make, manufacturer brand, and vehicle type — so finding exactly what you're looking for takes seconds, not hours.
Our Promise
We treat every order as if it were going into our own collection. That means careful selection, honest descriptions, proper packaging, and responsive support when you need it.
This isn't a side project or a dropshipping experiment. Model Car Planet is built by collectors, for collectors — and we're in this for the long haul. Our goal is simple: to be the first place you think of when you want to add something special to your display shelf.
