The short answer: M2 Machines is a diecast brand known for pushing out limited editions at a rapid pace, mostly in 1:64 with some 1:24. Its models stand out for extraordinary detail, great paint schemes, strong graphics and excellent licenses such as Coca-Cola and Moon Eyes. At Fairfield Collectibles, you can buy each model separately.

What is M2 Machines?

M2 Machines says it has been dedicated to building true-to-vehicle diecast replicas since 2007. The company is based in Rancho Cucamonga, California, and it makes its models in 1:64 and 1:24. M2 does not sell directly to the public. Its releases go through retailers and hobby distributors, and each run is limited and not restocked.

What makes M2 Machines stand out?

M2 is known for consistently releasing limited editions at a pretty rapid pace. They all have extraordinary detail and great paint schemes, plus some excellent brand licensing, such as Moon Eyes and Coca-Cola. I love the detail of these cars, and the graphic design is always top-notch. The packaging usually features excellent graphics too.

For me, M2's detail comes down to design. Whether a model has an opening hood matters less than the particular design or paint scheme M2 is using on that limited edition. Many M2 releases do have opening parts, though, so check each listing to see what a model offers.

Why buy M2 Machines at Fairfield?

The reason people come to us for M2 is that we sell each model separately, not in release packs like most other retailers. You can pick the individual car you are interested in and not get stuck with one or two from the release that you are not as interested in.

Who collects M2?

The typical M2 buyer knows exactly what they want. They are hardcore collectors looking for specific production runs to add to their collection, and many are completists who want to collect them all. Since M2 runs are limited and not restocked, a model can sell out, so if you spot one you want, it is worth acting on it. New to the size?
