Any Johnny Lightning Collectors out there?

Iv been collecting these for a while now. I collect mostly CETAs but I do have some other firebirds. These things are reputed for having a crazy amount of detail for small model. They are surely neat.

Post up pics of your Johnnys!!

Nice collection.

I bought a few back when I was kid and I agree they have a lot of detail. Thats what attracted me to them.

I dont have any pictures of them.

When all of your collection consists of the same car, Is that collecting or hoarding?

Inquiring minds want to know.

I have a boatload of JL's and other diecasts....PM me if you want any.

I tried selling them here, but I can't load a pic. I can give camera phone pics.

what's the point of owning more than one of the same toy?

**02cetransam** · 12-17-2008, 05:15 AM

There are different versions of same car. There were 10 000 regular CETAs made with regular tires and 1000 of them had rubber tires.

Then there is the white lightning version (the ones with the white botton in the pics). Only 100 were made and only 10 of them had real rubber tires.

Some of the Johnny Lightning CETAs are rarer than the actual ones!

i'll try to upload my johnny lightnings tonite. i don't have any ceta's but i do have a few gto's, several firebirds, a few camaros, and an impala ss if memory serves me correctly.

course it pales in comparisson to my hot wheels collection.

Mine are all boxed up still from moving, but I have a pretty good sized Camaro collection. Every 4th gen I can get my hands on. I try to acquire the cars I or my friends have had. This makes me want to bust them out. At one point I was working on getting a 68-69 Nova, so I have all of the JL's nova's I could find. Now my thoughts are to log onto ebay and increase my colection again. Hmmmmmm......
