Question Lightning 1:18 Die Casts?

Does anyone know where I can get my hands on a Maisto 1:18 scale RED Lightning?

I'd like to get one or a few if they're different years...

thanks,
--Russ

Ebay is your friend.

I've purchased 6 black Bburago Lightning models from there. I still have 4 of them. There are maisto all over Ebay, but personally I like the Bbruago's better.

Someone posted on SVTp that they only came in 1:21... I want all 1:18

I coulda swore someone had one on here, I remember pix from a few years back.

I just ordered a 2000R, and two Terminators coupe and convertible in red. Should be a nice collection going.

Only 1/18 scale will be the plastic model kit.
1/21 Bburago (out of production) is only choice unless you want smaller- 1/43 & 1/64

1:18 Silver Lightning on Ebay Now!



Turns out there is a 1:18 Lightning.

Too expensive for my taste, but if anyone else on here wants it, get it.

I don't see bburago making a 1/18 scale of the same exact 1/21 scale Lightning. That box does not even match the Bburago packaging. Looks like seller has opened the box for his pictures, have them do it again and look underneith for the 1/21 stamp (All Bburago's have the scale stamped on the bottom).

Does Bburago 2 different versions of the Lightning model? At Ebay is a model, the seller says, it's a 1:18. I don't beleave. It's probably a 1:21 model too...
I surch also a Lightning model in scale 1:18. But, it's hopeless....

Greetings from Switzerland

got a responce from seller:
Item: 1999 FORD SVT LIGHTNING 1/18 MIB NR MADE BY BBURAGO (7006787089)
This message was sent while the listing was active.
depasquale410 is the seller.
Although the box states 1/18, the vehicle is actually 1/21 scale. Thanks for looking.
