A die-cast toy (also spelled diecast, or die cast) is a toy or a collectible model produced by using the die-casting method of putting molten lead, zinc alloy or plastic in a mold to produce a particular shape. Such toys are made of metal, with plastic, rubber, glass, or other machined metal parts.
All die cast surfaces that are parallel to the opening direction of the die require draft for the proper ejection of the casting from the die. [12] Die castings that feature proper draft are easier to remove from the die and result in high-quality surfaces and more precise finished product.
