For example, the popular Matchbox 1-75 series was created in 1947 by Lesney. They were so named because the series had 75 different vehicles. The small cars were placed in small boxes that looked like matchboxes. Innovation came from Mettoy that manufactured the Corgi brand in 1956 when they used clear plastic windows and the use of interiors in their models. Mattel introduced Hot Wheels, a top selling car series with low-friction steel/axle assembly, in 1968. The conventional size for most diecast cars ranges from 1/28 to 1/64 scale.

The increase in diecast car collecting was a result of the 1950s. Children growing up in the 1950s kept their collections as adults and found there was value in some of the items. Today though, there is a difference between someone who has accumulated diecast models for years and a serious collector. A true collector keeps a catalog of his or her inventory, displays the diecast models proudly and is actively involved in the diecast car collecting world, whereas a person who may have accumulated them over the years tend to keep them in the basement, in boxes of junk.

Diecast collecting has become easier in recent times as a new innovation was invented. A computerized database that can track each vehicle in terms of color, condition, value, scale and other characteristics is hot among collectors today.
