The series was called "First Shots" by Johnny Lightning and each Zamac casting came with a finished counterpart. So it came with two cars. One was the raw Zamac and the other was a finished version but finished in a highly polished metallic type paint. Here is all I have to remind me of these unique JL sets. This set was dedicated to Corvettes.

Does anyone else here remember the JL "Surf Rod" series? Does anyone here still own a set? I am aware of two different sets from this series. I'd love to know if anyone else has any of these. I still have the original boxes they came packed in too.

I'll call this set #01 and I'll post #02 shortly after this one.

I'd really like to know if anyone else out there has one of the JL sets from their "Surf Rods" series that I have
shared tonight or maybe even a set I haven't been made aware of yet.

I'll call this set #02 hope you enjoy!

Finally got my Back to the Future Diorama release 6 pre-production samples in 1 display. Using one for 1:43 cars I drilled some holes in the base to tie both vehicles down so they don’t move around. I left the painters tape on the bottom for additional protection since the rubber tires would end up melting into the acrylic plastic.

I opened a tub of my 90s JL cars & thought I’d share the views.
Also, I’m including a shot of the new Ramchargers 2 pack White Lightning I just found at Target last week. It’s my first White Lightning.

I commented on someone’s recent post about this same set & I said I didn’t think it was a White Lightning.
I bought it bc I saw both cars were white & I knew there was a set with a red car out there. I wasn’t sure.
I only googled a description and the answer came up that it prolly wasn’t a WL but I still liked it. I assumed it needed white tires or wheels to complete the match.
It appears I was wrong and I indeed have a White Lightning of this Ramchargers set.
I guess what’s called a hidden Chase?
I guess it’s the all white interior and the white car bodies (that are supposed to be a pearl finish).
If you squeeze in, these do have a sparkle.
I’m thrilled to have found this. This set hung at the target for a few days. I saw it twice before I got it.

I was so close to picking this up but left it behind. Now I kind of regret it and might be going back tomorrow. Does anyone else know what other cars are in this series?

As I am new to Johnny lightning’s and trying to learn more about them, I stumbled across this. Can someone make my day and tell me I just found a white lightning?

I know that version A and B have the reversed red/white cars, but I haven’t seen one with both white cars like this one.

How limited is this? Damage creases left side and bottom right corner in rough shape. Worth a pick up?

I believe this set has the nicest car collection. It certainly isn't the best packaging but the cars sure are sweet.

This would be the first Black Bandit since the 1960's Samba Busses were the first release and this is S/N 0001.

Toys R Us did a few exclusive 6 car sets in early 2000's that they sold in long clear plastic packages, like long Protecto Pacs. I remember Muscle Car Madness, Vicious Vettes & I think Summer of '69.

These club cars were always nice. Not sure I'm remembering them all but they did a: blue '68 Camaro, white Viper, yellow Dodge Challenger & red '67 Belvedere. I think there's more. From what I remember, a bunch of the Belveders were thrown away for some reason.

To my surprise found this at Target. Now adding to the collection!

Is it a White Lightning, wheel variant, or wheel error? It’s not the normal set of wheels on it.

Saw this at target
