I love the fact that there is 4 different Company names on the bottom of this Truck, and that doesnt include Dodge! !

A little rough around the edges, but hopefully that is just because they're pre production photos. Those tail lights on the Warlock are MASSIVE, though.

Not something I'll buy, but the models look fine... :thumbup:

I try not to leave negative or cynical comments - but the first thing I noticed was.... it looks like they bought some tires from Greenlight. :duh: (i.e., steamrollers)

I don't mind being negative or cynical; JL originated the "steamroller" and the previous releases of the Dodge had those oversize tail lights.

I like these. Hopefully the cleaned up packaged versions will show up here.

Yup, those tires are way too big. Can't they dip into the AW bin for these?

Well I'll be. I never noticed it on the others I have, maybe the photos here just make it seem overly-large.

Yeah, on second look I agree the tires are too big, especially on the Vegas where the bigness shows up the most.

With all the trouble they're going to, you'd think JL would work on getting wheel/tire proportions better fitted, especially with the price hike. Guess it's not a JL priority.

Maybe they're just for the sample photos.

I've been a little reluctant to buy many of the 2016 Johnny Lightning cars due to the price point. These castings will change that- will be picking up all the cars pictured above! I hope JL will someday make the Monza clones- Buick Skyhawk, Olds Firenza, and Pontiac Sunbird based on this casting.

I agree I'm not buying anymore vehicles with steam rollers.

I'm just happy these are being made. Absolute perfection exists in other, larger scales, which I appreciate as well, but for 3-inch toy cars, these fit my tastes nicely.
