Several diecast brands were there, showcasing to retailers what is coming, and we were fortunate enough to have someone there to recap the festivities. There is some fun looking stuff here. Johnny is back. 97 for a blistered car. That is beyond Auto World territory which quite frankly are better looking and more highly designed. M2 is better designed and comes with a plastic display case for that kind of money. To get a similarly packed M2 car that matches the Johnny Lightning, the M2 is 2 bucks cheaper. Johnny is back.

It is compatible with all commercially available plastic sectional slot car tracks operating with a transformed voltage in the range of... The card is filled with very accurate information about the show and car. It even goes into detail about the different cars used throughout the series and how there is not a set standard for color, engine or other particulars of the General Lee. I've talked to many people at Dukes events and car shows who should take a minute and read this info.
