Say, Shaygetz! Fantastic Trucks! Can you still purchase them? I espically like the Johnny lightnings! I need a couple of "Deuce and a halves" for my layout,, as well as that Pete with the Freuhauf Trailer! Nice! :thumb: How much they go for?
Yes, you can still find them...and at full retail if you're not careful, $24.95-29.95. I picked up mine at a local fleamarket---with all original packing and boxes---for $5 a pop. They're known as Matchbox Collectables. You can find them on Ebay for $6-10. The Johnny Lightnings I haven't seen in over a year now, don't know what your chances are of finding those.
Here are some more Match box Collectables...and a Behn Originale flatbed made by GEFRA. It had a plastic model of a bottle of Dooley's Original Vodka Toffee Cream Liqueur mounted on the bed, obviously a promo freebie of some sort left to die, smuthered by dust bunnies, in a remote corner of the clubhouse. I couldn't resist the Black with chrome football mask road warrior look so I tossed the bottle and plopped a Noscott loader on it. Those lime green wheels and Dooley eyeball graphics just make it all the sicker:thumb:
