******** "Cars of the Stars" ********
Since the late 60's diecast manufactures have been producing replicas of well known cars used in long running TV series and movies. Some released in series and others as singles. All were very popular and sold quickly. Most are rare and very hard to find. If you are lucky enough to find the one your searching for in a collector shop, or even on ebay, you can expect to pay a pretty penny for it...
