A friend of mine is a product manager for RC2. They make the Johnny Lightning line. He used my car for one of his programs.

Holy Crap, that's cool as Heck! (darn language filters)

Is he able to make them for others? Any idea what he'd charge?

I'd love to have a custom model of my car.

Very Cool!

That is cool. My wife had something similar custom made. Not quite as cool, but unique...

That's very cool. I actually picked that one up at Diecast Direct last week. They are based in my town. I thought it was a special order for one of their customers.

Thanks,

My friend told me that they are downsizing their "your car is the star" program but will still consider anyone's car.

Check out this link: Your car is the star

That's cool!

Apprantly, you send in your picture to "Car is Star" and they decide to make it or not? So its not a guarantee, eh?

Correct. There is no guarantee. It is up the the discretion of the product managers.

My friend told me that they get TONS of pics from people. As in many cases with life, it is who you know.
