toy lightning

Any one know where to buy a toy lightning, preferably plastic? I need one for my Grandson's 1st b-day, you should see him play with a plastic firebird his Dad gave him I'm so amazed he even knew what to do with it!!
Die Cast would probably be okay, I assume they're not too heavy?

I did search on here but it seemed that all the toy item's were collectable's not really toy's.
Thanks in advance,
Bryan

Toys R us had a lightning that was plastic and played music and had a lightning bolt down the side that lit up. But I dont think that it would be recomended for a 1yr old. All other toy L's that I have seen were die-cast.

Thanks bdazsvt and Ed!! I'll check out toyrus, store isn't too far away. I'm checking out e-bay too. How big is 1/64th scale?? I'm not really familiar with the scale's, I was hoping to buy a truck around 12" long. The one on e-bay seemed much smaller.
Thanks,
Bryan

This one is an RC Lightning purchased at ToysRus for about 90.00. It's about 28" long and pretty cool.

You can also try Target. I've bought a few there also, as well as Wal-Mart and a ton off E-bay.
