James N Simpson Said: The Best General Lee of the Six (so far at the time of this review) Johnny Lightning Releases ( Nov. 23rd 2008 )
This is the best General Lee to resemble the one from the show as it is the only one that comes with the black bull bar which extends over the silver bumper bar. However it doesn't have the best overall sitting inside package look, if you're not planning on getting this out and playing with it you might want to get the one from the second release as it comes with a magnet of the General Lee instead of the sticker of Beau wearing a hat you get with this one. This edition of the General Lee (and there's at least one in every release) was part of the 3rd release of 6 cars. Release 3 also brought some of the other most popular (thereby hard to find now) vehicles of the six releases. They were Uncle Jesse's Chevy Ute, Eno's Race Car (popular due to the sticker of Enos and the hound that come with it enhancing the display in the package) and the Double Zero Mustang. Six vehicles made up release 3 and the other two were the Finchburg County Sherriff (red and white) police car and Molly Hargrove's Plymouth Roadrunner. Release 3 kept the brilliant innovation of the packaging from release 2 where you can view the vehicle in the packet from all six sides including through the back of the blister pack. Unfortunately though Johnny Lightning did away with the bonus magnet and replaced it with a sticker instead. However they kept the same rectangle format that was much more popular than the cut around the characters way they did with series 1. So there's no difference in viewing the sticker to the magnet if kept in the packaging but obviously a magnet does not bend and droop over time like a sticker does standing behind the car on display. Like all Dukes of Hazzard Johnny Lightning vehicles, the normal cardboard backing with a small plastic blister has been replaced by the whole thing being entombed in plastic. I like this as it certainly ensures if you are a keeper in packaging type person that it stays in great condition, even if you buy it online and it comes through the post. My only criticism is they could reduce the top part in size (above sticker) as it would then fit on more smaller shelves in people's houses to display these great cars.
