Link to the display: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DD7bXRp Hope you have as much fun building yours as I did making this video. Enjoy!

[@Ivanovich8811]

So cool looking! Not into displays myself (yet), but always very cool to watch 😄

[@customcollects]

Thanks bro! You truly are a man of your word. You’re the best! Super pleased you enjoyed this video. I’ve always been a loose collector and I’m having a lot of fun putting these new displays together for my collection. Wish you a really great day. New video up in maybe the next 2 or 3 days. Best of luck with the rest of your week to my friend 🙌 appreciate you

[@JonToyCars]

I have never been into dioramas that much, but this one looks interesting!

[@customcollects]

Hey man! How’s it going. Hope you’re doing great this week. Super happy this video inspires you. For sure, pick up this display and have fun with it. I’ve always been more of a loose and display focused collector so naturally making these and enjoying different ways to display my collector is my passion. Oh, whilst I’m here. Did you pick up any new Diecast models this week? I have a new RLC car to open soon which I’m looking forward too. I also found the Hirohata Merc today so grabbed that one as I really enjoy that green colour. Wish you a great day my friend. Thank you always for you kind comments. You’re the best 🚗💨

[@panfilip9963]

2:56 my man, I'd put that blue sticker on myself, seeing as I collect HW, MBX and Tomica, since they scale very good with each other 😅I checked out the Aliexpress link, I'm now contemplating on getting one of the car dealership dioramas for custom Porsches I want to make.

[@customcollects]

Lol! I hope your wallet can forgive me 😤🤣 there’s so many bankrupting awesome products on AliExpress. I just can’t believe how little I had to pay for the display I built in this video. I think because with the light on. The blue and white stickers are the best options as they let the most light through when you switch the display on. Filming this G-Fans Diecast model store at night was a lot of fun 11:22 super happy this video inspired you man. Appreciate your awesome comment and thanks for the support too. Go easy on your wallet yeah? Haha. Good luck with the customs mate

[@SouthernDieCastChallenge]

Great Info

[@customcollects]

Hey! How's it going? Really appreciate the support and kind words my guy. Thank you for taking the time to write a comment, always makes putting in the hard work into these videos feel super worth it! Hope you've been getting lucky recently picking up new cars to add to your collection 🚗💨

[@SouthernDieCastChallenge]

@@customcollects Thank You , it’s been dry in my area last couple weeks. Going to Hunt in a different town this weekend. Keep them Great videos coming !

[@danny.e3013]

Awesome video my man. Youre an amazing diecast collector and person

[@customcollects]

Thanks dude. Wow. This comment really made my day! Had a lot of fun making this one and I definitely stuck the hours in for this video that’s for sure. Cheers to you for being an awesome person and thank you for taking the time to leave an epic comment too. You’re the best 🚗💨🤝

[@nastygaming6597]

Cool diorama!! And niceeee car display❤

[@customcollects]

Andddd very very affordable too! For the money this product is a HUGE win from AliExpress. Do you already have their app installed on your phone? Hope you’re doing great today! Appreciate the support and hope you enjoyed this one 🚗💨 you’re the best

[@rclifegu3574]

@custom collects thank you for your support G-fans💯

[@customcollects]

Appreciate the kind words. Thanks for being here and for leaving an awesome comment too. Super happy you enjoyed the video, fellow Diecast collector. G-Fans best displays 🚗💨🤝

[@JAGoldenberg]

Funny you mention those armored tank like bubble tubes. I buy quite a few customs etc from various southeast Asian countries and they all use them. They form them into great custom shapes depending upon what I am buying and how much. Another really cool thing is I save them to reuse for when I ship stuff out and after several months they have lost literally no air. They are clearly not those cheap air pillows Amazon, Mattel and others use.

[@customcollects]

Hey man! How’s it going? I really enjoyed reading this comment as it’s exactly something I would write myself and it’s like you and I are living a parallel Diecast life in this universe! Haha. Thanks for leaving an awesome comment and for the support too. Much appreciated! You’ll be very pleased to learn that my next upload isn’t too far away now and we’ll be diving into more packages from overseas! Hope you’ll be back to watch it. Wish you a great day mate 👍🚗💨

[@MdDiecastHunter]

Nice, I have 2 gfans dioramas and an American diorama Gulf garage and between those gfans was superior, alot of the pieces in the AD Gulf garage were warped and because of that don't come together cleanly. Thanks for the review.

[@customcollects]

Hey! How’s it going? Appreciate the really kind comment and I’m really pleased you enjoyed this one. AliExpress is definitely a really dangerous place… for your wallet!! Haha. So far I must say after purchasing quite a few of these products I have had zero issues with the quality or any of the parts included. Perhaps you can modify the parts that don’t fit perfectly so that they better work together? It’s a lot of fun building these displays and most certainly the best excuse to open more of your Diecast products. Appreciate the support mate. You’re the best. Super happy you enjoyed the vid 🚗💨

[@MdDiecastHunter]

@customcollects Diecast in general is dangerous for my wallet😭, I did get the Gulf garage sorted out and put together, just took a little extra time as I sat a weighted piece on them to help straighten stuff out, I am a mainly open collector because of the dioramas and love setting up scenes and taking pictures. Thanks for sharing

[@customcollects]

Thanks man. You’re very kind. Glad you got things sorted! It’s a lot of fun putting these displays together and it’s really nice that all Diecast collections and displays over time look unique to the collector. Which new Hot Wheels set out you looking forward to picking up next? Wish you a great day 🚗💨

[@MdDiecastHunter]

@customcollects Dioramas are great in general to express what you love about car culture, I am looking forward to the Gran Turismo R34 Nissan Skyline that is coming out and have the Elite 64 Datsun 240z pre-ordered, I do collect other brands and have about 5 cars on pre-order counting the Datsun I mentioned above. I appreciate you chatting with me and wish you a great day as well and good luck on the hunt out there🙏

[@customcollects]

You’re the best! Chatting on here is one of the best parts about making videos. I have infinite amounts of time to discuss Diecast! Best hobby on the planet. I was dead set on the elite 64 Datsun until I noticed… no mirrors! Gotta love the stance though. Very cool. You’re right that picking up 1 or 2 of each of the skyline pop cultures is a must for every Diecast collection. Personally I’m sure stoked on Slide Street 2 and those euro World Tour castings. I’ll get working on my next upload soon, hope you’ll be back to watch it. Need to get out hunting too. Best of luck to you to mate. Stay lucky 🤝

[@baffledsquirrel2122]

I got the jdm garage display on Amazon and I love it! Looks great for my skyline collection. Never used Ali express is it safe like not to many scams ? Love this display too

[@customcollects]

Hey, how’s it going! Thanks for the kind words and for the support. Much appreciated. Super happy you enjoyed the vid too. Means a lot to me that you took the time to leave an awesome comment. Thank you. You’re much like me and probably remember the old AliExpress from back in the day. The whole business has done a complete 180 in more recent years and I really can’t sing their praises enough. There are a lot of great email updates and correspondence regarding your order so it’s definitely a business I feel happy to make videos about as I’m keen to inspire and help other fellow Diecast collectors. You can see reviews from others and read about their experiences too. It’s definitely legit. Having 6 skylines lined up inside your JDM display sounds epic! Do you have a favourite? I’d say I’m mostly an R34 fan but you gotta love the c210 as well. Total classic! Hope I could further help you to grow your Diecast display collection. A lot of fun for sure. Wish you a great day! 🚗💨

Your link to Ali Express has the price at $42.07 but your price in the video says $25 CDN, but it is a very nice diorama.

[@customcollects]

Hello. Thanks for stopping by the video. Prices for these displays change daily and go up and down all the time. I thought about this before posting my video and all I can tell you is that AliExpress are likely to show you a different price to another user. That’s why pricing isn’t straight forward. For example… You won’t ever see a whole number like $20.00 or $30.00. My advice to you is to try both the AliExpress app and then open your web browser and see if that’s any better. Make sure that you investigate discount codes and other discount methods to best help you to find a great price. Hope this helps you fellow Diecast collector 🚗💨

[@customcollects]

I just checked the AliExpress link I posted myself and it’s currently showing at £15.08 for me. The link is working 👍

[@carangamerguy]

Sounds like you get a better price in the U.K, that’s great for you, I will keep checking to see if the price drops for me in the future, thanks for the advice about checking the web browser also, and you are welcome.

[@502Imcomingthrough]

Nope, not that cheap at all, it's coming up as nearly $AU50, most sellers are at that price or higher

[@customcollects]

Hey how's it going! Ali Express change their prices ALLL the time. It's why everything on there isn't a straight forward price like 19.99 or 20. I actually think that perhaps this video has influenced sales and therefore prices are changing. Supply and demand etc. be sure to check back in the future. I've been chatting to other collectors from all over and prices vary country to country. I hope you can find this display for a great price. Appreciate the comment and the insight. Thanks so much for letting me know and I hope you enjoyed the video that took me hours and hours and hours to make 👍
