Holden HQ Monaro 1971- 1974 all the same.Holden spent so much money on an all new design that there was nothing left for remodelling for years, luckily( but slowly )sales took hold and the cars were excepted eventually. At the end of a 4 year model run almost half a million cars were made over 7 variations (Sedan , Coupe , Wagon , Utility , Panel van , Cab chassis tray back truck and a long wheel base luxury sedan)
Just bought one from Ebay here is Australia to put along side max's last of the V8 interceptor can't wait to put on display in my HT room
Thanks for the review. Excellent Job. Have purchased one and eagerly await the arrival from Australia
thanks for watching, dude! I love this model. Although I wish I got the 1/18 version when it first came out, but now they're like half a grand lol I hope you enjoy your car as much as I do
I note that Greenlight / DDA have revised this model, I have no.181 and the vents / flutes in the front guards are no longer there.
We Aussies knows berserk motorbike gang member Crawford "Nightrider" Montazano kills a rookie officer of the Main Force Patrol (MFP) Australia's highway patrol unit and escapes in a Pursuit Special he manages to elude other MFP officers but then encounters the MFP's top pursuit man Max Rockatansky AKA Mad Max breaks the Nightrider's concentration during a high-speed chase resulting in a fiery crash which kills the Nightrider
This car is sweet. I've ordered one. I grew up with Holdens as my father was an enthusiast. We had a Monaro, a Premiere, a Kingswood and some station wagon which I can't remember the model of. So I was stoked when a Monaro was featured so prominently at the beginning of Mad Max, even if it did go out in a blaze of fiery glory :)
are you from Australia? Those cars are super sweeeet! Australians and US made some super rad cars back in the day. I hope you enjoy your model when you get it :D thanks for commenting, man
@@PrinceofMacedonVlogs New Zealand, so a hop, skip and a jump away from Oz (well, a really big jump, anyway). Holdens and Fords were the closest thing we had to 'muscle' back in the day, and if an American-made muscle car showed up on our streets people would flock around it to get a closer look due to their rarity. Of course, nowadays its a bit more common to see cars from all over the world here, but yeah, when I was growing up it was all about the Fords and Holdens! :)
@@hadlee73 Australian cars are still pretty rare here in the US. I happened to catch a Chevy SS (a rebadged Commodore) out in the wild once near Disney, and I knew I was in the presence of greatness
@@PrinceofMacedonVlogs Yes, as I understand it the Holden brand has been officially retired due to declining sales in Australia. If you spot something now that looks like a Holden, its more likely to be a Chevrolet. Saying that, it'll still be possible to watch them for awhile longer in the Supercar Championship in Australia and New Zealand because the Holden Commodore ZBs being used are all from 2018-2022 production lines.
You are still the only one who has a video up on TH-cam of this vehicle 😅 By the way, awesome video mate. I was a owner of a 1971 HQ Monaro. It was a beast of a car.
thanks, dude! And you had a fantastic beast of a car. Australian muscle is just as amazing as American muscle. I'm surprise more people aren't showing off this model. It's a beautiful one. I'd love to get one of those 1/18 versions of this. By the way, I love Stallone's "Cobra" movie :D Such a classic
@@PrinceofMacedonVlogs I purchased the 1/18 MFP Nightrider just today. I should get it in about a week or two. Hey bro if you get the chance do a video on the 1/18 scale, I would love to see it. I’ve been told the 1/18 one is made out of resin
Ps. The front bumper bar is correct, that is where the number plate is fitted. Your model is based on the GTS version, eg the fluts in the gards
where as the Mad Max car is just the stock standard monaro. The dash in your model is the GTS, the Max Car has the standard dash, the same as the different steering wheel. But the seat winders are not correct as your model's are from 75-77 cars. And the real cars only had door mirrors on the drivers side.
Holden (General Motors) built the pursuits, Ford built the interceptors. Both were to try get the government (Police) market.
I got one of these as well..it took a while to get it from Australia..im pretty sure this model is based on a replica of the night rider car..and they used monaro bodies that are already beong made and greenlight just added features from the movie on them..
I've always liked the Mad Max Monaro as well. I wonder, what was the deal with the giant hood scoop? I know in reality, the car had just a stock engine, but as far as make believe movie stuff, were we to assume it housed a supercharger under the scoop? It was a pursuit special after all.
There's been several Mad Max Falcon XB replicas built, but as far as I know, only 1 or 2 of the Mad Max Monaro replicas made.
Mate I bought one last of the v8 72 Monaro gts mine was number 1645 out of 2000 made came with a 350 chevy carburetor motor and had the blue paint under the paint that was on it and still had interceptor Nsw on boot fin fkn awsome car to drive for real it kicked ass and turned heads and was loud as fuck wheel spin all the way floor it at 100mphr smoking up the highway in north island newzealand
damn, dude, I'm super jealous. Australian muscle cars are badass
Such a cool car, and Movie! The game is pretty fire too! The details are awesome! Great video prince! I really enjoy these!
thanks, man! I've got a unique diecast going up on Sunday. Hope you're doing good
xprinceofmacedonx I haven’t seen a 1/18 die cast 67’ Jeepster from Ace Ventura. I’ve only seen the 1/64 model. One day maybe?
Edit: Not really a racing movie per say, but still a classic car
@@IsaacBlueiKe yeah, I think it only exists in 1/64 scale. But I've seen Greenlight tackling a lot of tv/movie vehicles lately (like Terminator, Speed, Lost, etc). And BoS makes a '70 Jeep Jeepster which has the same paintscheme (but lacking the decals as Ace Ventura's)
xprinceofmacedonx Hopefully Greenlight does it some day. (Movie Originated) I’d also like to see the truck from the walking dead that Daryl and Rick Drove, Would be cool.
Hi there, I'm from New Zealand, Sometime today if not tomorrow I should be receiving from DiecastGOLD in Australia a limited edition resin 1/18 custom damaged MFP nightrider HQ Monaro model #243 out of 1800 made world wide. It will be a perfect companion for the 1/18 black AUTOart interceptor, yellow MFP interceptor and the Big Bopper MFP pursuit vehicle. Hopefully toward the end of this year the 1/18 MFP March hare interceptor will be released.
I saw them making the 1/18 scale again. I'm debating getting one for myself too :D It's a beautiful model
@@PrinceofMacedonVlogs Yes I will agree, it is a beautiful constructed model and well worth the money. Also I was wrong about the build number, as I was told, it was #243 of 1800 made world wide. I was surprised to find when I opened the box and found the authentication card that it is actually #0060 of 1800 world wide .
Nice! you hooked on die-cast now!
I love that they're so detailed :D I still have a lot more r/c projects planned though. I have one still in the construction phase, but it's going to be another Mad Max one
i definitely have to pick this up
I love it! But it's a bit smaller than my preferred scale
@@PrinceofMacedonVlogs i prefer 1/24 haha
This is my favourite and lovely in this scale car!!!(russian) Хоть я и русский,(english) i want this car!
it's gorgeous!
Согласен, очень классная тачка
I ordered both the intercepter and the HQ
amazing! What scale did you get the Interceptor?
@@PrinceofMacedonVlogs
1/24
So freaking awesome!!! I wanna get these but they are so expensive. I love the monaros they were Australia's Chevelle. Its funny this monaro and scarse and scuttles cars were actually 6cyl cars. They took the monaro out and ran it up against guardrails and other stationary objects before filming to give it the look it had. Theres a real 1 to 1 replica for sale now on Madmaxcars. If i ever get a large amount of money one day the first thing im buying Is a XB Falcon, and a Monaro GTS .
This is the cheaper 1/24 version. They do have the 1/18 version but because it was so limited, it's nearly impossible to find for an affordable price. I would've loved banging up the Monaro! They really trashed that thing lol Good luck finding the book. I hope you can find it for a good price. A lot of people know that Mad Max collectors are hunting for this book so they usually jack the price up on it
On the one i bought today it appears theyve fixed the side vent issue
hi there could you tell me what the measurement between the center of the wheels are?
Got mine recently and it seems they have removed the intakes and the year of the car says 1972 on the bottom .Mine is number 460.
Damn. I have the Beyond Thunderdome book. I didn't know they mad one for mad max. Im going looking right now. Always some little extra tidbits of information that the movie dosen't include
I want to eventually get the Thunderdome book because I feel like I might enjoy that one more than the movie lol
@@PrinceofMacedonVlogs i actually must be one of the only ones who like it.lol. i feel the timeline all falls together perfectly from the way the vehicle's are getting rattier because they are cobbled skeletons of their former self being built and rebuilt. Even Maxs trusty leather jacket shows the wear from the previous battles scars from the road warrior. It was more believable considering the further the years from the "pox eclipse" the less things from before that time remain and if they do they are highly worn out
@@hodgeshotwheelsanddiecast5192 I liked most of the movie. But the parts involving the kids really made me cringe LOL That said, I still rock out to Tina Turner on occasion :D
Hi, Nice video but would like to know if the front bottom bumper and rear spoiler come loose in the package because i just got mine and both items were not attached to the car but freely loose in the package....would you say that my is damaged?
I'd say it was damaged based on your description. Those parts weren't made to be detachable. You might be able to fix it yourself though. Otherwise, maybe ask for an exchange?
They didn't do 1/18 scale?
they did many years ago....but it's way too expensive due to sellers jacking up the price on this one
The ps4 mad max game shoulda had the monaro theft as a playable mission as the night rider or max. Huge missed opportunity imo.
