Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

It's about time. also the site says --The June BOLT is only a few days away from posting and you can bet you'll see a few cars that are sure to be the real hits this summer. First, you'll get a peek at the new GMC Typhoon casting and then a preview of the 1:24 scale Musclecars R29. Release 29 includes a 1967 Shelby and a 1970 Ford Torino but I don't want to "SPOILER" it all.


i really hope the come out with a cyclone spoiler as well.

I'm guessing that's the pre-production casting they are talking about. I'm hoping they ad more detail than that. :lol:

Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

Hell, even if it turns out red like that, I'll just shoot it the correct color. I've only got the decals on my tailgate anyway. Now if I could just get my sawblades on the JL truck........

How come I had this visual picture of you in the camping department, unboxing a new tent, chairs and just camping out inside the store?

Stores near me, the camping section is near the toys. HMMM.

You know what...I like that idea better. Air conditioning. Plus, like, free jumbo cheese puffs all night long.

Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

This online retailer is going to have them. They didn't quit get the spelling correct. Check it out.

http://www.1stopdiecast.com/ Click on the JL banner and look for the TRUCKIN' AMERICA RELEASE 2 section.

No pixs of the models though.

Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

I just pre-ordered 6 sets (3 cases) of Truckin' America R2 from Milezone.com. I've had no problems ordereing from them in the past, so I'm sure I'll have them as soon as JL releases them.

Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

I sent A few pics of Brian Merk's Ty. about year to A year & A half ago. Said they were going to do it then. Finnaly got around to it I see.

Aj.

Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

Is Merk's a '92...cause that's how they're packaging it. Can't wait to see the door handle thingies and "bucket" seats.

Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

Ok, pardon my JL ignorance, but what is a "spoiler" car?

 

[Chest Rockwell]

Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

Just registered for JL's Collector's Club, and saw a picture of what I'm assuming is the final production truck. Yup, a roofrack. The pic isn't clear enough to show the door handle, but the wheels look incredibly accurate. I'd post the pic, but it's labeled "do not republish without permission". Jeez, the spare looks huge through the side window.
