Johnny Lightning is a brand of model cars originally produced by Topper Toys from 1969 - 1971, similar to the hugely successful Mattel Hot Wheels die cast racing cars. Their claim to fame at that time was that they were extremely fast compared to other brands of die-cast cars. Their most important technology was to mold in a small hook under the front axle so that they could be propelled by a lever-driven catapult, far faster than could be obtained by either gravity, or battery powered "supercharger" devices. Topper closed in 1971 and production of Johnny Lightning cars ceased for 23 years. In 2003 Thomas Lowe secured the trademark rights to the Johnny Lightning name for his Playing Mantis company. Playing Mantis produced toy cars under the Johnny Lightning brand name from 1994 to June 2004. At that time Playing Mantis (including the Johnny Lightning brand) was bought by RC2 Corp. which in turn was bought by the Japanese toy company TOMY in 2011. TOMY discontinued the Johnny Lightning line of diecast cars in 2013. The brand continued to maintain a following by a loyal group of collectors. In early 2016 Round 2 LLC, a toy company owned by Thomas Lowe (who also owned Playing Mantis), revived and reintroduced Johnny Lightning vehicles to the toy market for a second time.

About Die Cast Cars: The first diecast cars were made in the 1940s and have since captured the imagination of children and adult collectors alike. Today, the most popular brands are Hot Wheels, Matchbox, and Tonka Types include passenger cars, sports cars, NASCAR cars, construction vehicles, and service vehicles. Diecast cars range from as large as 1:12 and 1:18 scale to as small as 1:87 and 1:148 scale. The 1:64 scale is the traditional and most popular scale for diecast cars as well as most miniatures and models. Diecast toys are made using the die casting method, a process that forces molten metal into a mold cavity under high pressure. Diecast toys are made of metal but often have details made of plastic, rubber, and even glass.

Diecast toys are bubble wrapped and shipped in a sturdy mailer to assure a safe journey.
