Blitzway: 1984 Ghostbusters 1:6 ECTO-1 4K Review

[@harrycallaghan3057]

Amazing collection. From my experience, never touch anything if you don't have to. I learned the hard way.

[@SimmonMohan]

Despite some of its minor misgivings I love it. Displayed with the figures looks absolutely stunning. I love it.

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

Exactly. And nothing is perfect. You and I both know you can pick anything apart. But as a whole with the figures, you're just not gonna find anything better.

For $2000 the seams in the plastic on the bumper and those red decals on the rear fins you pointed out are absolute deal breakers. For that kind of money there shouldn't be any flaws, especially not ones that are so amateur hour as those are.

Wow! Beautiful piece. The 1:6 vehicles released are usually not true 1:6 scale which is why this looks "too big." If you search Sideshow's history, a 1:6 diorama was done with the Falcon in the Death Star docking bay. It really puts things in perspective.

[@walkaboutinside]

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

I agree.

[@pho3nix-]

I don't think the vehicle is oversized compared to the figures, you have to remember that's a huge Cadillac.

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

The 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor Hearse wheelbase was 160 inches. That taken down to 1:6 scale comes out to 26.66 inches. The Blitzway 1:6 Ecto-1 is 28.12 inches. It is lager than it should be.

I agree with you, but for me I won't be messing with the doors and lights, and as a static model it's awesome.

[@SovereignKnight74]

For the amount of money they want for this thing, I am not impressed. Fingerprints, paint splatter, decals used to take the place of paint, incorrect headlight functions. It seems like a half assed rush job to be honest. With that, the concept is cool, but it falls really, really short.

the real wiring looks like shit too. They could have at least tried to make some of it look like the car's proper headlight wires, and then the strobes could be made to look like Ray added them in, which he did.

[@bobdylan5705]

The figures and Ecto are from Blitzway

[@fifthrider]

6:15 - You are correct, the high-beams never flashed. Also, the turn signal bulbs were white, not amber. Technically only 2 of those 4 lights at the bottom were ever turn signals, the other two were fog lights. I own a '59 Caddy replica Ecto. On my car I decided that "screen accurate" or not, I wanted 4 x amber turn signals like you would expect, so I altered my car. Ever since then ( about 2010 ) I've seen comics, toys, t-shirts etc that feature those 4 lights as amber. I feel partially to blame. Those lights were all white, and the headlights never flashed. 9:59 - This misconception could be my bad too. I put LED lights on the round-reflective rings of my Ecto so now I see it appearing as canon in other media. A normal '59 Caddy wouldn't have those.

It would be cool to have a large scale version of Ecto-1. Good review, you pointed out the negatives which I agree could have been designed out better, and the positives are correct as well. I think for most people that do buy this, are not going to be pushing it around the floor, so a power adapter rather than batteries would be my choice.

I wonder how hard it would be to open up the rotating light assemblies and just offset the rotors a little bit so they don't all rotate completely in unison like that... It would add some more realism/authenticity.

@@HorrorMonsterCollectibles i converted a barbie car into an ecto for my ghostbusters custom 12 inch figure. Looks decent bur this one is a work of art.

[@moderusprime]

The top of the roof is around shoulder height in the movie give or take an inch or 2. The scale seems spot on.

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

It's very close. I measured out the wheelbase and width between this and the actual 1959 Caddy and it was slightly larger. If I remember right, Blitzway said they made it slightly bigger to make it easier to fit the figures inside. But just by looking at it you can't really tell. And if I remember correctly, the figures were not all 100% exactly 1:6 scale.

[@davidjones6470]

Now this is f##king awesome 👍 Love them look excellent

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

[@Meijin_viper]

the front 2 lights did strobe. They are aircraft landing strobes, they are not synced. But you can see them flash when the Ecto first leaves the station.

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

I'm pretty sure it's been said that was due to loose wire connections during that shot.

[@horrorgorecollector]

Great review. Been waiting a long time for this. You should also check out Eaglemoss Ecto 1. 1:8 scale. Its 31 inches. Great build.

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

I have heard great things about it. Do you have it?

[@horrorgorecollector]

@@HorrorMonsterCollectibles yes. I pre ordered it a year ago and have just received the first 2 issues. Eaglemoss is great. I'm also a year into the Back to the future delorean. Also 1:8 scale. Over 81 LED bulbs. You really need to get them. Deagostini also is a great company. I'm building the 1:2 scale R2D2 working replica. They also have the X Wing and a massive 1:1 scale millennium Falcon replica of the original model used for filming. All of these including the ECTO 1 are around the same price of about $2500. Up to about $3000 with modifications. Theres also a company called Hatchett that has a 1:4 scale Terminator Endoskeleton

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

Horror Life Awesome man! I’ll look into it!

[@Milner62]

Headlights never flashed. Like wise with headlights on park lights should never be on. They also shouldnt be amber but warm white. The strobes also flash in groups when they should alternate.

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

Yeah, I thought it odd that they did on this.

[@ghaleon128]

The blue roof rack spot lights are supposed to flash also.

[@Milner62]

@@ghaleon128 they are. I dont know why I said that, the one that isnt supposed to flash is the blue spotlight. That light we never seen illuminated so it's probably was done to spice things up but I dont believe that would have flashed. Just like the headlight wigwag, the wigwag didnt come about till later on in the 90s.

[@BassWhoopinFishingTeam]

Yeah and for 2 grand it better be a damn good replica and VERY accurate. But it is a nice model aside from that.

[@powerturtlebusters]

It always eats at me when i see headlights flashing. Thats what the strobes for, they are the things that flash.

[@rodrigocmsp]

Congratulations, This collectible is beautiful. :-)

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

Thanks!

[@chamoo232]

The inner headlights shouldn't flash. The scale is right for the figures. The spinning lights is accurate to the scene where Ecto-1 comes out of the firehouse for the first time but that shot is accelerated. The regular scenes at the end of the movie has the lights spin much slower. For the price I would be scared to modify it but at the same time I would like to do a custom paint job and weathering just to make it look more realistic. I would remove the red vinyl and redo all the red paint. I would also sand down that bumper seem and redo all the chrome. Some airbrushed rust under the car and a bit of dirt in the bottom of the doors.

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

All great ideas. I may end up trying to tackle some of that (at least remove the vinyl and airbrush it red). When I have time...which I never have. lol

[@chamoo232]

@@HorrorMonsterCollectibles I hate when we have those amazing collectibles that have tiny details that are just off. I ended up buying a cheap airbrush on ebay just to repaint my Hot Toys robocop. It was too silver for my liking. I used navy blue translucent paint and took the figure apart. taped every part that wasn't silver and shot a fine mist with the airbrush. Now he look exactly like he does in my mind when I picture Robocop. The mods I end up doing the most often is fixing decisions that were made for light up features. A Terminator endosqueleton look great when the eyes are lit up but it look dead when they are off. I can't leave the eyes on all the time. Solution: tiny little circle of red vinyl tape sticking in the eyes. Now he always look alive.

[@grass_low]

Dope video 👍🏾

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

Glad ya liked it!

[@Retrobution]

i think you could mod this to be just right. at least this is what i would do if i could pick one up second hand. for the front flashing lights you could take the wire coming off of the non flashing front lights and wire the flashing ones to those. for the bumper molding you could take off the bumper. sand down the part and respray it to a chrome you would like and same to match the others. could peel off the vinyl sticker and then paint that with the same red. for the rotating light noise perhaps there is a way to make it silent depending on how the rotating mechanism is working (i presume a load of cogs which are making the noise) perhaps a rubber band system could be modded just need to see how its all working inside to see if its possible. but i think if you had the siren sound file play when you press the button it would make the rotating sound less prominent. thanks for uploading this. i bought the hot toys delorean a few years back and was really disappointed with that i may sell that to get this. but i cant get this without the ghostbusters! so am left looking at them on youtube instead haha

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

All great ideas brother.

[@Straypuft]

As a lightbar enthusiast, Id say the noise from the rotators on this model is pretty accurate, on the real deal(police cars and such), they arent exactly quiet. I am quite amazed at the detail they put into the lightbars and hope to see scale modeling catch up with this in smaller scales(1:18, 1:24)

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

There are some good smaller scale Ecto's out there. Eaglemoss is one...

Didn't the window tint get put on the version from the second movie? I also think it was the inside headlight flashed on the second version too.

[@HorrorMonsterCollectibles]

Ecto-1 did have the same window tint as the Ecto-1a, but I am not sure about the flashing inside headlights.

[@benjamindminor7552]

In the first movie the headlight did not flash on purpose the wiring was faulty and during filming it would go on and off. And when the car leaves the firehouse it just happened to be acting up thats why you see it come on when the car turns after leaving the firehouse and goes by the camera. Back then movies let a lot of glitches happen and not go back and reshoot because they didn’t have the budget like they do today and there where no post cgi to correct anything.

I'm sure all those flaws are easy to mod out, but at that price makes it too difficult for anyone to want to attempt it without feeling as if they're damaging it.

@@HorrorMonsterCollectibles no, the closest to a one:12 there's been, that i've ever seen (and i've looked for years), is the old Kenner one.

It seems to me that, despite all the effort put into it, still there are issues that we don't see in mass produced toys. All the electronics are very poorly conceived, with the exposed wires and the overly complicated sound system. The red vinyl for the fins is a shame. Of course the end result looks impressive, just because noone has ever done it before, but with such a prohibitive price tag, those defects are unacceptable. It clearly is the product of unexperienced workers who underestimated the job.

If you look at scenes from the movie the car's proper size for the ghostbusters.. Remember back in the day this was an ambulance/Hearse. So it's a pretty large car. The noise of the lights is kinda insane.. Does it not have the siren sound? And honestly the fact that they did vinyl for that red is really disappointing! That said.. If I could figure out a place in my house to fit It I'd get it to go with my blitzway busters.. For now I'm just going the eaglemoss build an ecto-1 which is slightly smaller but more manageable for finding a place for it!

The 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor Hearse wheelbase was 160 inches. That taken down to 1:6 scale comes out to 26.66 inches. The Blitzway 1:6 Ecto-1 is 28.12 inches. It is lager than it should be.
