- Today we'll be examining Greenlight and AutoArt's take on the MAD MAX (Last of the V8) Police Interceptor; in 1/18th scale. Both are diecast metal w/ plastic parts. The AutoArt does feature a fully detailed trunk that opens up (which I forgot to show in this video... opps!). Thanks for watching and be sure to subscribe for more video updates! -See ya guys soon!

I saw a Greenlight version online and they do apparently now paint the "BF Goodrich Radial T/A" on the sides of the tyres. They may have made other refinements too. Anyway, great comparison video! Good camera work!
They look both good, Greenlight is great run for its money and also has MFP license plate and badge which is great.
Just to help you understand about the lack of badging on the car, the Tuned Version means this car is depicted from the very first scene in the garage with the mechanic and Goose introducing Max to the car. The car was being fine tuned befor the badges were added. So the Tuned Version is not suppose to have the badging and is correct. 😉
I dont need help in understanding. AutoArt did not procure licensing rights, hence the total lack of the words Mad Max, mfp or Warner bros on the packaging. I can see your theory, but when you view the famous 1979 garage intro scene, goose is standing in front of the fender, then he walks away and the mechanic also blocks the view. So, we are never shown the car's fender very well due to the darkness, as well. Do they actually show the car without the badging in the first movie? If so, I apologize, but iv8e never noticed that.
Tuned version refers to it being a custom version of the standard XB Falcon GT. Autoart uses tuned for like custom kinda if you look at their stock
its true in the very first scene the car is not ready yet
its just a tuned car and has no badges
but yeah we dont see it
You know someones a badass when their car has 2 spoilers
I know, right!! lol
@@Pedal2Metal_on_TH-cam Dose the engine life up a little bit when the hood is open like able to move around a little bit?
I personally coughed up the cash and went with AutoArt. I ordered movie accurate decals for badges and MFP plate.
That being said, some of the Greenlight's flaws/inaccuracies can be fixed. The rear reflectors can always be pried out with an X-acto knife, glued and flipped. You can buy 1/18 BFGoodrich tires on Ebay and try swapping them. If they don't quite get on the rims a dremel tool can hollow out the tire rubber. And should the overall paint job be that nice on a post-apocalyptic car that just came out of a makeshift garage which used scavenged parts from various cars anyway, as presented in the original movie?
I saw that all of the gl cars now come with bfg tires, which is cool! I know my gl 1/24 also lacks the tire lettering, but they are all very nice for the money. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Great video I’ve got all three cars 1/64, 1/25 and the 1/18 green light one, that’s one of my favorite cars
15:35 , its a 351 Cleveland painted in exclusive blue Ford ...
Thanks for taking the time to compare both brands, very helpful!
Nailed it. Great care and attention to detail. Crazy the subtle differences.
I just Purchased a Green light version of the interceptor and Yes there are differences between the two models such as the paint finishes, details, and features like the police siren , and radio voice sounds on the Auto Art version .
But netpicking aside , The green light version is still petty well done for a $50 model , And I think that these comparisons is somewhat excessive and unfair to compare a model from Auto Art that is 5 times more expensive as the Green light version .( The AutoArt version is now going at astronomical prices of $300.09usd to as high as $ 2800.00 USD !!!!! On the web .... Yes that much ... The latter is obviously someone scalping and gouging the price but you get the point.For Collectors like myself who can't or won't pay prices like that for Limited amount of AutoArt models out there the Green light model is the only option .. And a not bad of an option at that
I think that if you want a 1/18 Road warrior interceptor NOWS the time to get one because a lot of people will purchase these and they will go up in price and become harder and more expensive to get.
It's ok to compare the two imo, pointing out the differences and the pros and cons; just be mindful of the price differences. That said, and as you alluded to, I don't think that it's fair to be too harsh on the piece which is considerably cheaper; if anything I would go harder on the more expensive item. The Green Light version looks fantastic to my eyes, "I reckon you got a bargain".
Great video man! I would love a AA, but my Greenlight is good enough. I really like my greenlight, less detail in certain ways, but still an excellent car.
Agree
Congratulations on the 300 man! Here’s to 300 more!
Thank you, Caleb, I appreciate that!
Pedal2Metal Thanks for everything you do, I can never get enough of your content, here’s $5!
+Caleb Paul Thank you so much, Caleb; that's awesome of you!
You cannot compare these cars the price difference is too high, green lights for $55 is superb value. And not every body has the money to pay the higher price.
I hear ya, but this was a much requested comparo video. So, I caved and finally did one of the two since they are both the same scale etc. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Whoa, 300th!?!? Congrats! Great video too :)
Thank you!
Nice job ! Thank you. Nice comments, not boring.
Awesome video mate 🖤👍
Thank you! & Thanks for watching & commenting!
The Greenlight car does have that high rake on it which gives it a cooler looking drag look stance. The Auto art sits dead level which doesn't look quite as cool. But the Auto art has far better detailing and the proportions of the car and wheels look correct. The air dam on the Greenlight is slightly bigger vertically than it is on the real car. When looking at the real car from the side the bottom edge of the air dam should be basically dead level and in line with the underside of the car. From the side on the Greenlight the bottom edge of the air dam is lower than the underside of the car. They are both great models though and both have their strengths and weaknesses. I wish the wheels on the Greenlight were deeper like the Auto art. The dishes aren't nearly deep enough.
Best video youve ever done.
Thank you, Alexander
Yellow Max's interceptor from Greenlight is also coming this year.They annouced it in 2018 catalogue.
Excellent analysis, thank you. I will be sure to spend the extra money. I’d really love a 1:18 scale that looks like the age beaten, fuel hauling, workhorse, seen in the second film. All aged and damaged.
Congratz for the 300th video and i think that looks much better the autoart as always good video ;-)
Thank you, Antonio!
Quick question: I noticed in the video that the green light model has suspension, at least on the rear axle. Does the AUTOart model have suspension as well?
Awesome castings
Yea, they both are very nice! Thanks for watching!
The green light's stance looks higher but like you said for the price verry nice, anyway great video keep'em coming..🇺🇸
Thanks for the video >but not really fair one is 79.00 and the auto Art is 249.00 in Canada .Not a fair comparison.
But still a comparison non the less.
@@Pedal2Metal_on_TH-cam I just got the Nightrides Holden HQ Autoarts that it came with a certificate they only made 615 worldwide. Awesome car I just got this this version of Maxes Interceptor and I just preordered the yellow Interceptor Ford Falcon from the beginning. I.missed the first version from Roadwarrior I was missing this 1 and the Holden HQ and the yellow Pursuit car .
Awesome!
Thank you, Charlie, I appreciate that!
No Problem! I got the green light version a week or 2 ago when the auto art was discontinued. Awesome diecast vehicles tho.
I use Turtle wax on my dicast models and it gets rid of a lot of finger prints and such, and also leaves a really nice smooth finish. My black '65 Chevelle SS turned out fantastic, and it was only a cheap 1/24 scale Maisto kit.
I do too, Kevin when I get them "messed up". Thanks for watching & commenting!
I did find an updated Greenlight 1:18 scale of the Interceptor with the white lettering on the tires.
I wish mine had the lettering; same with the 1/24 & 1/43 which i believe they also have updated. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@Pedal2Metal_on_TH-cam Yeah the 1:43 also has the white lettering. I don't know about the 1:24 mine just has plain blackwalls. Hope they make the Road Warrior version at some point.
Beautiful.
Thank you!
Pedal2Metal
You’re welcome 👊🏽
Do you think its better to buy greenlight or autoart? Because atutoart has trunk opening and back
I'm sorry you missed out on the licensed Autoart Interceptor. That limited edition had the fuel cells, breakaway front and a ton of miniature figures, including a little can of Dinki-Di and a knife that is sheathed by the detonator. But that sold out fast. I have both weathered and unweathered versions. After the demand on those Autoart made the unlicensed version you see without the movie accurate interior or fuel cells.
Hello, I do own the MM2 interceptor... I just didn't find it relevant for this comparo video. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I'll have to settle for the greenlight cuz I'm not as independently wealthy as my buddy Royce ;-) oh, and congrats on the 300th video
LOL, yea... I wish! : ) Thanks Ed!
The orange peel paint job on the GreenLight is just abysmal.
As I have drummed into my family, “you get what you pay for”...words that I was raised on, and is the only way to live by.
Wait longer, to save more for the better made products. It actually saves you money in the long run, especially with tools.
Take some Emory cloth to the blower to get that print out of it.
You'd figure for over 200 bucks there'd be decals but lets ignore that because opening hood is badass.
I agree, but AA did not secure the rights from Warner Bros to be sble to use any kind of badging or use the name Mad Max; so unfortunately it's naked. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Just recieved my autoart madmax interceptor gave it a good look over no
Q/A issues i can see everything looks in place the paint job is flawless so much more than the greenlight the interior and engine detail is just amazing will autoart fix your fingerprint issue thanks for the reveiw.
Even though greenlight and autoart share this weird gift in screwing up proportions of their muscle car, especially the chargers, they make terrible chargers. Hot Wheels just wipe the floor with them.but I like the greenlight one more, it has the big rear wheel which I love
For 5 years I wanted to get doms charger from the first f&f movie, and I was willing to work my ass off to get the hot wheels elite charger, over the terribly casted half assed garbage greenlight had produced.
the greenlight looks way more accurate
with the logos the spoiler and no defrosters :)
but the autoart had better paint and details
hmmmm wich one should ik buy
i watched this video 8 times allready
It would almost be worth buying a greenlight and modifying it for a really detailed model and keeping an AutoArt stock. It's probably never really going to appreciate as much as the AutoArt, if they indeed do at all. A lot of collectables appeal to the generations they are relevant to. For example, in thirty more years pokemon could be worth a lot more than say, 1960's Tonka Toys are because the people they were relevant to that originally grew up them eventually die out.
@Smurphenstein I'm trying to get one of these without paying 20-30 over original price and it isn't easy so far. In fact the supply has dropped considerably since I started looking for one and I'm starting to think I should just buy one for 70 bucks while I still can.
I use latex free gloves for handling the models. No lint from them. Otherwise very good vid.
I’d still pick AutoArt’s version over Greenlight’s version. I have a few AutoArt 1/18 models and they’re so much more detailed.
Great review, Royce, and congrats on this being your 300th video!
Agree... I have dozens of AA ... but not for $177
300 is a nice round (and big) number!! Congrats!! The white gloves are a nice touch. Both cars are nice but Auto Art is amazing!!
Thank you, man, I appreciate that! Yes, the AA is very impressive in person.... dummy me forgot to show the trunk details though. ugh Oh well.
That’s the car from your profile picture!
I want one
And if you do even more research, I'm guessing that both the greenlight & the autoart are made in the same factory.
They are not... that's for sure. But it's a fun thought. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Kick it in the guts, Barry
the one on the right original
Autoart для меня по вкусу!, но Greenlight только в 1/24
The auto art is a nicer car .But got to look at the pricing.
I agree. Its awesome having choices!
I really like your video on Pedal 2 Metal I hope you do some more video on hotwheel cars.....😁👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒👋
More HW videos are coming soon! Thanks for watching, John!
I Bought the Autoart...Greenlight is cheap and...You guessed it..cheap! The pointed stripe on the greenlight hood "Front" is also incorrect! Spend the money and get a real gem! Thanks for the great video!
Great review i have the greenlight 1/18 also the 1/24 its really bad ordered my auto art interceptor should be with me soon can't wait it was $240 bit steep but will be worth it just wasn't 100% happy with the g/l lot's of QA issues and a scratch on the front left roof and the roof paint was tarnished cloudy looking buffed and waxed it to death looks better.
What's the price rate on these?
$300
autoart has white lettering tires and smaller duck tale is the one on the real car
Green light can make the razor cola cheap yeah yeah
15:05 Autoart cars have a small button on the bottom to open the hood.
I'll have to look for that! I'm pretty sure my MM2 car doesn't though.
@@Pedal2Metal_on_TH-cam it should be a very small push rod in the corner that pushes up and lifts the bonnet by a couple of mil. (although all of my Autoarts are HQ Monaros).
Has anyone done a 1:18 of the nightrider car?
Yes a company called ACE made a 1:18 model of the Nightrider. It very rare, not detailed like Autoart, and very expensive (like $500) if you can find on Ebay.

👨💻there was this bloke who rented above me Made Models cars from scratch out plastic sheet biro tubes and wotnots laying around To make it worse they even made the engines run elec encased inside the plastic motor fan belts all worked lights doors fooking amazing i took a few Photos incase he blew my mind never did i think people did this at home 🦘🙃💗
You should give your dog some Dinki-Di so he'll stop barking... ;)
Interesting. My Greenlight looks much better. The tires look amazing on mine and have the writing as well. Not sure why your's came with those wheels. And mine has a fairly flawless paint job.Both spoilers on mine are also attached flush. Maybe you got a lemon or someone jacked up the QA on this one at the factory.
Wow, your 1/18 GL came w/ white lettering on the tires?? (Does the lettering say BFG or another tire brand?) I've never seen another then like yours, even all the pics online show them w/out white lettering. You also say you're not sure why "mine came with those wheels"? I'm confused by that statement since all of the GL cars have those exact wheels; maybe you mean the tires though (?) Could you please send me some pics if you get time, I'd love to see the updates they have made. My email is rtcopen@yahoo.com Thanks for watching & commenting, Rich!
Here I did finally find one seller on ebay showing the "new" tooling. The tire mold appears tome to be the same as what my car has, but the BFG lettering is on this one as well. The roof spoiler still has some issues from what I can see in the pics, but overall the GL is very nice for the money, I think. www.ebay.com/i/263771786398?rt=nc&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20160908110712%26meid%3D092841deaf084cbc8e59f20c20a83e24%26pid%3D100677%26rk%3D5%26rkt%3D30%26sd%3D253684787514%26itm%3D263771786398
Auto air it License
I didn't get one😞 I'd like longer wing. If your disappointed in one I'll take it🤣
Thanks for watching! AA and GL both are still making this Interceptor... so you could pick up a GL version for around $75 usd.
@@Pedal2Metal_on_TH-cam not in canada
Tbh the greenlight would be a sick base for a wasteland version I have a auto art stock Falcon and I really want to get a madmax wasteland interceptor
The auto art is missing the decals for the police badges , but looks the best !
I have the Auto Art version and the quality is very good. From what I've seen of the paintwork on the Greenlight versions they have more orange peel than an actual orange.
Thx for the review brother, I'm definitely gonna go for that autoart model & You're very welcome mate.
Thanks for watching the video, I appreciate it!
I could have once bought the original car for $850.
The car never fucking had the defrost strips on the back window, the taillights are wrong, the brake cooler vents are in the wrong place, . Autoart fucked up bad on this one. The greenlight is more accurate to the screen car.
How do you know the real car never had defrost strips? The tail lights are super accurate, I'm looking at actual movie stills from '79 and the tail end looks great on the AA. What do you see that is wrong? I'm just curious. In person the two cars are night & day, I hate to say that because it gets people so upset, but there is a huge difference in quality.
Because I know the history of the build of the car.
You lost me at "I didn't get time to research" thereby undermining the very purpose of this video!!!
The purpose of the video was to compare two diecast manufacturers. When I said about research, I meant the actual 1:1 scale hero car that was used.
Greenlight version is cheap junk, was it painted with a spray can
Lol
No it's not.. It's pretty damn good for $60.00
Your comment is cheap junk🚯
