JOHNNY LIGHTNING Buick Grand National Die Cast kit

[turbojitsu85]

Are these hard to come across and are they worth anything if they are still in the package?

i have about a dozen, they are worth about 3.99 depending on the store.....

maybe in a few years or atleast once they arent being produced they will be worth more

Try listing one on eBay. I'll bet you'd get at least $10 for it.

I've still got an original "Toy Time" GN mint in the card. But I'm keeping it.

Hey Dave, which "Toy Time" GN do you have?

It came in 2 versions:
- Astroblade wheels
- Cragar wheels

This mold was the precursor to the "Classic Gold" series 1987 Buick GN release that also included the silver '80's T-Type and '82 Grand National.

The kit version is the same as the "Classic Gold" car. I'm tempted to assemble it one day, but I chicken out.

I've got one of each. I think I opened one (not sure which) and left one in the card.
