a mere pittance to the man who wants a piece of automotive history

In that case, I would procure an original Jo-Han kit.

Wow! It almost looks real.

We know that the actual car is realistic and super detailed, hopefully the model will be good enough.

We all have a huge demand for the FULL KIT

The parts will be a less expensive way for potential buyers to get acquainted with the quality of the parts.  If they are satisfied with those, they'll be more likely to lay out the bucks for a complete kit later on.

If one doesn't have a Cutlass kit/built up with missing tail lights in the first place, why bother? I'm not likely....no, I won't lay out two large for what amounts to a curbside model if a Cutlass kit is ever produced. I have better things to do with that kind of money.

I agree 99%, but I just know one of these days I'm gonna pull the trigger on something stupid expensive just because it's rare, I want it, been chasing it for decades, and I want the glory of the kill!

It makes sense to an extent. A huge piece of Modelhaus's business was replacement parts for promo collectors rather than aimed specifically at model builders. For folks wanting to restore old Johan promos for display purposes, having the small, often lost parts commercially available is a godsend. You see the same things in the die cast world.

Now that makes sense.

Are those taillights prone to go missing?

Any small part that snaps into place has a habit of eventually separating itself from the model.
