Anyone notice that there seems to be some rumor of Tom Lowe re-acquiring the JL die cast line from RC2 / Ertl? :confused:

Hmmmm, I wonder, does that mean more licensing freedom, OR, more attention goes to another department??
Guess we will have to wait and see.

That might help Johnny Lightning diecast, but what is it going to do for slot cars?
*sigh*

If this is true, It's going to be okay. Remember when Tom owned the JL Diecast line before? The slot cars came on after the diecast cars.

This would be great news for the JL Diecast fans and the AutoFest. I optimistic that we will still see more slot cars from AW.

I wish they did a better job on that Gran Torino. Some of the diecast stuff is just incredible. WHy not slot cars?
