The 23rd edition of the 2026 Diecast Update is now up and running. There's a bunch of new cars to take a look at this week, but a disappointing detail that we can't overlook is the missing raced version of Denny Hamlin's Pocono car. With the sponsorship of not just Kings Hawaiian, but also Universal's Minions, Lionel has not been given the approval to produce a raced version of Denny's 64th win, a real shame. Some collectors hold out hope, but while we wait, there's plenty more to discuss. With the San Diego road course upon us, there's several new schemes, and recent ones to review, read on!

It's finally been a down week here in the 1/64 world of Nascar collecting. For several weeks, the car count has been at or around 15-20 cars, and things have finally slowed down a bit. That may be a bit of a disappointment for you, but this blogger could use the slowdown. Either way, it's been an interesting week for Nascar, and the main story is that Denny Hamlin continues on with his climb up the all time wins list. Justin Allgaier and Layne Riggs also add to their trophy collection and a trio of primary colored cars head off this week's edition with other standard schemes and more.
