Hot take: die cast cars got worse after about 2005 and I don't think it's just nostalgia

Keeps coming up that the dip was more like the late 90s into the early 2000s, not after 2005. By the mid 2000s a lot of brands had already cut back on metal bases and separate lights and all that detail, so the change you're feeling started earlier than you think. Some of it is also just what was popular then, the tuner and muscle stuff got way better in the 2000s while the everyday cars got cheaper to make. Not saying you're wrong about the quality drop, just that 2005 is a few years late for when it really kicked in.
