Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

I think you nailed it here...however, do a search of mc2-toys seller on e*ay...there is a black white lightning (out of the package :dunno:) for sale! I think these are possibly being painted.

Anything is possible. Once I find out some answers, I'll let everybody here know.

Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

I e-mailed him to find out about the black ty's

Are those jl black typhoons customized by you or did they come from jl that way. I know they run special convention batches for private events. If they are from jl what kind of package do they come in. i saw in your listing it said baggy..jl bag or ziplock bag?.

Thnx, dennis


His response

Hi Dennis,
These are not custom. They are made by Johnny Lightning. They do not come in a package. They come enclosed a clear plastic bag.

Thanks!!


Thanks!
Mark


Kind of a vague response. IDK

Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

Ok, I spoke to the seller of the Black Ty's on another forum and this is what he told me.


His: Its from the Ertl Collectibles line.

Mine: So how did JL get a hold of it? Hence, you get it?

His: They mix the lines once in a while. They did a Yellow hummer a few years ago, and prob a few others I can't think of off the top of my head. And same deal with the Scout and Blazers that go with the tractors.

Well, thats what I got for now.

Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

I am not going to pay $20 plus for a teal. Not that big a deal. Will find one eventually. Just strange few stores even carry JLs anymore in my area. Used to have no trouble finding them.

Wal-Mart will have them. It may take a few weeks for them to get it.

Re: Johnny Lightning Typhoon

I gave up on my local Super Walmart when the whites came out. They still had the same ones from a few months earlier and no whites.
