Playing Mantis brought back the Johnny Lightning line of die cast cars in the 1990s. Johnny Lighning was a line of cars similiar to Hot Wheels back around 1970 but the quality was not as good. Aside from the repros of the originals the cars made by the new Johnny Lightning were of higher quality anyone was doing in 1970. They may have started the high quality lines of die cast cars being sold today. Which includes the Round 2 version of Johnny Lightning being sold now.
This model is the Flathead Flyer which is a reproduction of an actual car which was designed by Posies Inc. But the actual car is red and this one is gold. Playing Mantis did the color change with their funny cars too. Still this is a great model and the choice of a flathead is a good one as it is a bit different.
Nice ! Like RedBeens+Rice
