Not happy with the miss aligned logo. Strongly considering to cancel. Thank you for the great review and comparison. Love your content. Keep doing your thing.
The Peterson museum has or had the afterlife ecto 1. I was watching a video of it. I noticed everything you are talking about including so much more. Its true the logo is way off on the blitzway so much more rust. No white wall at all. Looking forward to the modified reveal . Hope you and your family are doing well. Keep up the amazing work. Take care.
Yeah I actually have a little bit of that video of the car at the museum on my channel, you are exactly right 👍🏻 thank you so much for the kind words! Hope all the same to you and thanks for watching!
Awesome to see the two Ecto-1 models compared together like this! Thank you so much for the in-depth walkthrough on both. Look forward to following more videos once the new door stickers arrive & the amended weathering process gets underway. :)
Thanks man! Really appreciate it. Unfortunately I have decided to sell my entire collection to fund my aviation career so I won’t be doing those stickers sadly. Thanks for watching man!
@@ghostbusterspluscollector9624 Wow! That was unexpected comment but also marvellous news! Weirdly I just got back from a weekend away at my Uncle's who build his own helicopter & recently had a flight in a WW2 RAF Spitfire. Wish you nothing but success with your aviation career dude. It's yours for the taking! :)
Let me tell you something: 36:31, These kind of lightbars are very loud in real life, too 😆 Those ones of our oldest ambulances, you can hear the lights before you see them 🤣 Combined with the compressor for the pneumatic sirens under the passenger seat, you have to shout at each other!
I repainting one to look more movie accurate and then I got another one and turned it into the black and gray pre-Ecto 1. Both videos on those projects are on my channel 👍🏻
Aren't the afterlife Ghostbusters ecto1 emblem stickers of the ghost supposed to be a little crooked 🤔!??? Because if you noticed the 1984 blitzway ecto1 are straight the same way my blitzway 1984 ecto1 are🤔. Although the afterlife ghostbusters ecto1 stickers, I think, are supposed to be a little crooked even in the afterlife movie 🎬 the ghost emblem was slightly slant😳. Because blitzway will make all the 1984 ecto1, ghost emblems correctly straight. Plus ➕️ I know a few people with the afterlife ghostbusters ecto1, and it's the same. I dont think this was a bust.!!! Also, this was a great video after watching your review of both the 84 and the afterlife ecto1. I am now so tempted to get the afterlife ecto1. These were some beautiful shots of the ecto1 automobiles, especially the afterlife ecto1. Great video 📹......!!!
Wow hes correct what a time rc and collector iteams i have some gremlin's stuff so awesome but this is another level best ive ever seen afterlife best one
Got this last week. Thanks for the great video. Hope you get the stickers sorted. I’ve noticed the parts in particular the single hose on the side doesn’t sit properly the hose seems very tight. The roof rack alignment pins are very tight. The proton pack on the chair is a tight fit to affix the outer border grid on. The clamps that hold all the hoses onto the side of the vehicle are loose and prone to popping out. One wire was completely out of the tiny white connector - that was a joy putting it back in. The rear battery compartment is a tight fit for the 2 lids to clip on. All my decals are good including the rear door. It looks great.
First off awesome review. Its a cool comparison. Very unfortunate Blitzway missing the mark like this. The weathering i can handle. I missed the 84 version so having thats not over the top dirty is fine. But the logos. Shame on Blitzway. Hot Toys, Blitzway dropping the ball.
Yeah for anyone who doesn’t have the 84 version it’s actually a good thing they didn’t make it 100% movie accurate with the weathering but for me, I’m going to dirty this thing up a lot more! lol. Can’t get over the logos. Thanks for the kind words!
Thank you sir! Appreciate it. Congrats on getting yours! Hope you have better luck with the stickers. If not, I’m sure you’ll be able to get some replacement ones from blitzway. Still an amazing piece. Hopefully it won’t take three months to get them! lol
I don’t know if you’ve seen it but Adam savages Tested you tube channel has him driving the afterlife ecto 1 in day light loads of up close shots good weathering reference
Yeah I pulled a bunch of photos from that as well. There were 2 different cars they used, do you like better? I actually like the one that was in the barn that looked way worse lol thanks for the info! 👍🏻
@@ghostbusterspluscollector9624 yeah prefer it more weathered. Love the video buddy very jealous i own a Blitzway Ray just wish I could afford a Ecto 1 for him to sit in lol
Also the gunner seat proton pack is different in the movie. The ion arm section has been removed and attached mid right hand side next to the main pack. There are also other small added details and obviously it’s much more weathered. I would love to own that car but like you I wouldn’t stand for those crooked stickers. They should have took a bit more care with it.
Excellant video. The gunner seat seems like an easy fix, maybe some micro bolts and locking nuts with washers. The stickers not a problem, im sure Blitzway will send out stickers to anyone, I already emailed the owner and told him to send me a bunch and ill send to collectors who have issues, waiting to hear back. What I am curious about it the piece of tape on the rear passage door, I wonder if you remove it if the door is weathered underneath? I know in the movie it looks like it had bondo but I would love it just with that sticker removed. I have my afterlife, it arrived today but sitting in the garage until I find time to unbox it. Let us know about that piece of tape, I would love an update! Thanks again for the detailed - in depth video.
Yeah I’m really curious to take apart the gunner seat and find out what’s going on. Blitzway did say they would send me stickers but I have to go through BBTS since that’s who I bought it from. I will for sure be doing update videos on everything I do to this car so stay tuned! Thank you for the kind words and thanks for watching! Hope you have better luck with yours 👍🏻
i want to buy it first too. but I canceled it. because I personally like the 1984 Ecto1 better/ I don't think afterlife Ecto1 is that successful. it has many flaws from the paint. but Blitzway would have built Ecto1 A. then I would order it immediately.
You gota print up some caddy center cap decals for the hubcaps. It’ll add a lot of depth to the wheel. Besides that For all the imperfections on both I’d be real mad for the amount spent especially to buy both. I’m still jealous I don’t have an ‘84, but the lil things knowing how insane us fans are about the minutiae, to have all these things overlooked just isn’t right. But you got it now, now you can make it awesome on your own. Awesome vid as always. 🍻
I just got the Afterlife after missing out on the original. I love it. What sucks though is the decal on the back door is crooked like yours. Doors are ok.
My Afterlife Ecto 1 didn't have as many issues as yours fortunately. My ghost are a little off angle like yours, but the Gunner seat on mine is very snug and tight and moves freely but with no wiggle, screws were in like they should be. My door bondo spot was weathered unlike yours and matches the rest of the door weathering. My windshield corners were slightly popped out but was able to easily push the corners back in. Overall the car has a great presence and I love it.
That’s awesome! Glad yours came in better condition 👍🏻 everything is fixed on mine but still waiting for replacement stickers. I have done a lot of modifications to mind to make it more movie accurate and have the videos on my channel if you want to check them out. Thanks for watching and enjoy the Ecto!
Watched the premiere yesterday but had to back and rewatch, really well done video and love the comparison. As you know, I already have the replacement stickers, but to be brutally honest, I am afraid of damaging even more, cause its a water decal, and I can see they apply some coating layer on top of the sticker. I am completely lost how to replace it. Any chance you will cover the process? I am sure the whole community would be extremely grateful! Keep up the good work! Cheers!
Hey man! Thanks for watching and thank you for the kind words! Means a lot. I contacted Blitzway and they will be sending me some stickers. So as soon as I get them I will make a video on how I do them 👍🏻 Love your content as well! Have a great day.
Thanks to only guy on the internets who did this. Now I'm convinced I need to chase that 1984 version. Thanks! That was super informative! I'm confused by the ledder tho. Which side it should be on or it's a movie mistake
Thanks for the kind words. In the afterlife movie, they had to move the ladder to the other side of the car so the suicide gunner door could open fully.
Use oil's, and make an oil wash get a rough bitnof packaging sponge and some steel paint, sponge on the steel making sure you dab alot off on a paper towel and hit the edges and you can do some light drybrushing over the edges of the roof racks as for oils speia, burnt umber and an vallejo German black Brown is an amazing base black for the dark steel and drybrushing over it or with an H2 graphit pencil as this won't come off as easy as normal lead! The car needs redone really! The rust runs look like something out a cartoon under the handles n locks! Its still cool and going to be a blast fixing it up!
does the Federal Model 19 Propello~Ray light up? that's the thing with the red lens on the 84 & the gray lens on the Afterlife. Nvm now I see that it flashes rather than the sealed beam bulb spinning clockwise within the housing.
I have the 1984. This wasn’t too hard of a pass for me. I view the Wrecto-1 as a slight revision but not a staple car. One can only dream of an 1:6 Ecto-1A as that is truly a different car to me.
Very cool comparison!! Is there a Ghostbusters 2 model Ecto1? Because i know that version has some changes to it including an LED SCREEN that flashes in green or yellow stating “We’re Back!!” Along with more flashing lights. I would love to have see that version if available.
I know QC issues are becoming more prevalent with high end collectables these days but I can't help think that if the rumors are true of Blitzway losing their Ghostbusters license then maybe they just didn't give a flying F#%/ anymore. If it's true that Star Ace now has the 1/6 Ghostbusters license then we're in a world of pain as their headsculpts are Horrendous. Interesting to see if we get any figures made when the new movie releases in 2024. I really want some figures to place in the Afterlife Ecto-1 (mine arrives in a few days) & I'm still waiting for Threezero to announce a 1/6 Mike Wheeler (Finn Wolfhard) from Stranger Things.
You could be right about them phoning it in cause they lost the license or let it go. I have no idea how the hell star ace got the license. Umm did they not see the Rocky they just released?? 🤷♂️ lol. Hope you have better luck with your Ecto! I contacted Blitzway and they are sending me replacement stickers, so if you need some too it shouldn’t be a problem. Thanks for watching!
I made another video on my channel how I fixed it. The screws were actually lose because the nuts they go to underneath fell out. I found them in the car and put them back on and tighten the screws and now everything works fine.
Did you have to cut wires for the external power source you have? Where can I get that piece? What’s it called exactly? Great comparison vid. I just bought the Afterlife version and it’s being delivered tomorrow.
For me I have one nitpick for the afterlife version where I don't know if it's on purpose or accidental but in Ghostbusters afterlife the front light bar is bigger than the 84 version and just from looking at it in the movie it looks like the back light bar is smaller and is the same size as the 84 version but here the front light bar is the same size as the 84 version but hey that's just my nitpick and I don't know if anyone else noticed that but I did and I really don't know if they did it on purpose or on accident
Have they still used plastic gearing in the lights? Are they still grinding when spinning? I have the fanhome 1.8 scale I replaced the gearing with alloy and grease they are now silent its magic!
Personally, I’m not really into the figures near as much as I am the cars. In fact I just sold my Blitzway Ghostbusters figures. Would be cool if they could of made the Afterlife figures though.
but I still like Ecto1 Afterlife. he belongs to the Ghostbusters family. somehow i annoy myself . that I canceled it. because the shop that had it could no longer order it and some said that the Ecto1 would not come. maybe someday when i have more money. then i will buy it. I like the video of you. Thanks. but because Ecto1 A will not build Blitzway. don't think so. but if ! then it will be ordered immediately.
Hi, I'm a modeller myself armour mostly I weather model's for shows etc if you want tips on how to remove some of that irregular bonnet sponge chipping let me know if your not sure! The glass windscreen is what it is they have over done that also dusting whare the wipers have cleaned its stupid! As for pannal lines not lining up and the decals skeqif on the door's they should give you them separately like the old hasbr 90s toy! The yellow tube on top I'm sure was green wasn't it? They have used a German ww2 1943 Dunkelgelb yellow green on the rack tubbing I'd spot that colour anywhere!
Just got mine. I’ve noticed that the front driver side two yellow lights are dimmer than the left. Also the rear passenger side brake light is dimmer than the left. Is this normal?
@@ghostbusterspluscollector9624I just fixed it. It was loose wires from it being thrown around by ups. My box looks like it went through war and the inside box came off. Thanks 🙏
Oh the stickers are not right on mine either 😢 I think the people that put them on are not familiar with the movie and didn’t get instructions on the correct orientation.
screws are in there just no nuts to hold them in place very bad assembly. Not going to lie since the start of this video I been asking is he going to say something about that gap in the windshield??
The decals on afterlife are correct size of film car just squint! The yellow tube on roof i thought was green in films not yellow The red beacon light is missing its red clear cover its not clear on real car easy to do with some Tamyia clear red th-cam.com/video/KGrfYnq_WGg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=9ROkU_e68CGfKUfD
Would you consider making a video of you weathering the ecto 1? Just so we can get an idea of “how to” do it as well. Also, great video. I was on blitzway website looking at the prototype pics and your video at the same time. The weathering is not the same from what they showed. I wanted it because of the heavy rust. I don’t have the original and I thought this version would have been better. I like distressing and I’m disappointed in the final version.
Yes, I’m definitely going to make videos of me weathering it. I’ve already made three videos on my channel modifying some stuff to it if you want to check those out. There will be plenty more videos to come! Thanks

Thanks for the great video.
Hope you get the stickers sorted.
I’ve noticed the parts in particular the single hose on the side doesn’t sit properly the hose seems very tight.
The roof rack alignment pins are very tight.
The proton pack on the chair is a tight fit to affix the outer border grid on.
The clamps that hold all the hoses onto the side of the vehicle are loose and prone to popping out.
One wire was completely out of the tiny white connector - that was a joy putting it back in.
The rear battery compartment is a tight fit for the 2 lids to clip on.

just got a later batch in and my stickers are ok ;)
Thanks to only guy on the internets who did this. Now I'm convinced I need to chase that 1984 version. Thanks! That was super informative!
I'm confused by the ledder tho. Which side it should be on or it's a movie mistake
Thanks for the kind words. In the afterlife movie, they had to move the ladder to the other side of the car so the suicide gunner door could open fully.
Well, the biggest issue with this car was the rust effect
Use oil's, and make an oil wash get a rough bitnof packaging sponge and some steel paint, sponge on the steel making sure you dab alot off on a paper towel and hit the edges and you can do some light drybrushing over the edges of the roof racks as for oils speia, burnt umber and an vallejo German black Brown is an amazing base black for the dark steel and drybrushing over it or with an H2 graphit pencil as this won't come off as easy as normal lead! The car needs redone really! The rust runs look like something out a cartoon under the handles n locks! Its still cool and going to be a blast fixing it up!
does the Federal Model 19 Propello~Ray light up? that's the thing with the red lens on the 84 & the gray lens on the Afterlife. Nvm now I see that it flashes rather than the sealed beam bulb spinning clockwise within the housing.
I have the 1984. This wasn’t too hard of a pass for me. I view the Wrecto-1 as a slight revision but not a staple car. One can only dream of an 1:6 Ecto-1A as that is truly a different car to me.
The afterlife version is cool but if I could choose between that and the Ecto 1a … 1a for sure!! 👍🏻 agree
Very cool comparison!! Is there a Ghostbusters 2 model Ecto1? Because i know that version has some changes to it including an LED SCREEN that flashes in green or yellow stating “We’re Back!!” Along with more flashing lights. I would love to have see that version if available.
Thanks! I wish someone would make that one but not yet
Look at the windows. Do you see what I can see? Things that make you go HMMM.
Nice I want the ecto1-A
Thanks! Someday, someday lol
Beautiful dogs. Are they redbone coon hounds?
Thanks! They are Vizsla’s
I Also Noticed it In the Movie.
I know QC issues are becoming more prevalent with high end collectables these days but I can't help think that if the rumors are true of Blitzway losing their Ghostbusters license then maybe they just didn't give a flying F#%/ anymore.

hello my friend, is it possible to activate the subtitles. thank you for your videos
I will have to find out how. Never done that before. I’ll look into it! Thanks for watching!
@@ghostbusterspluscollector9624 thank you very much maybe an option to activate
the screws are actually bouncing sucks mate hopefully you'll be able to sort it.
I was not going to unbox mine now not so much.
I made another video on my channel how I fixed it. The screws were actually lose because the nuts they go to underneath fell out. I found them in the car and put them back on and tighten the screws and now everything works fine.

Noice!
How did you paint it white from the black that piece came as. I’m new and want to do it.
For me I have one nitpick for the afterlife version where I don't know if it's on purpose or accidental but in Ghostbusters afterlife the front light bar is bigger than the 84 version and just from looking at it in the movie it looks like the back light bar is smaller and is the same size as the 84 version but here the front light bar is the same size as the 84 version but hey that's just my nitpick and I don't know if anyone else noticed that but I did and I really don't know if they did it on purpose or on accident

Yeah and they are super loud
no 2016 version ? i wonder why !
Who else Noticed that the to car's are Different?
Just got my car i need some advice my roof rack is not working I don’t know if I connected the wires wrong but the lights won’t go on just the siren
Like you said the wires are probably wrong. Make sure all the same colors are connected. Did you download the siren sound?
to pay that much money for this and have it wrong? geez!
is it worthy to own 2 of these especially since blitzway didn't make any figs base on the afterlife film?
Personally, I’m not really into the figures near as much as I am the cars. In fact I just sold my Blitzway Ghostbusters figures. Would be cool if they could of made the Afterlife figures though.
Did you contact the company you purchased it from? Suppliers are working with Blitzway to get replacement decals to customers.
Yeah I’m suppose to be getting replacement decals 🤞🏻
Just got my replacement stickers yesterday @@ghostbusterspluscollector9624
but I still like Ecto1 Afterlife. he belongs to the Ghostbusters family. somehow i annoy myself . that I canceled it. because the shop that had it could no longer order it and some said that the Ecto1 would not come. maybe someday when i have more money. then i will buy it. I like the video of you. Thanks. but because Ecto1 A will not build Blitzway. don't think so. but if ! then it will be ordered immediately.
Thanks for the kind words!
Hi, I'm a modeller myself armour mostly I weather model's for shows etc if you want tips on how to remove some of that irregular bonnet sponge chipping let me know if your not sure! The glass windscreen is what it is they have over done that also dusting whare the wipers have cleaned its stupid! As for pannal lines not lining up and the decals skeqif on the door's they should give you them separately like the old hasbr 90s toy! The yellow tube on top I'm sure was green wasn't it?
They have used a German ww2 1943 Dunkelgelb yellow green on the rack tubbing I'd spot that colour anywhere!
Just got mine. I’ve noticed that the front driver side two yellow lights are dimmer than the left. Also the rear passenger side brake light is dimmer than the left. Is this normal?
They should be the same brightness
@@ghostbusterspluscollector9624I just fixed it. It was loose wires from it being thrown around by ups. My box looks like it went through war and the inside box came off. Thanks 🙏
@@8bitflea good to hear! Yeah I had some loose stuff rattling inside as well
Oh the stickers are not right on mine either 😢 I think the people that put them on are not familiar with the movie and didn’t get instructions on the correct orientation.
You get upgraded lights for them now
I like the Frst Ecot1989 the is OK i nodis the Ghost Log is Sletit not Sret
screws are in there just no nuts to hold them in place very bad assembly. Not going to lie since the start of this video I been asking is he going to say something about that gap in the windshield??
Oh yeah, big QC issues with this piece for sure. It’s still awesome but not worth the price after all the things that came wrong with it.
Look Closely Thay are not the same.
don't ever buy anything made on a monday or a friday & from another country.
The decals on afterlife are correct size of film car just squint! The yellow tube on roof i thought was green in films not yellow
The red beacon light is missing its red clear cover its not clear on real car easy to do with some Tamyia clear red

ECTO 1 Afterlife Has a suicide Door ECTO 1 1984 Does Not.
Unnecessary purchase. Simply leave the original model outside in wind and weather for 1 year and it will look even better than the Afterlife model.
Booo
Would you consider making a video of you weathering the ecto 1? Just so we can get an idea of “how to” do it as well. Also, great video. I was on blitzway website looking at the prototype pics and your video at the same time. The weathering is not the same from what they showed. I wanted it because of the heavy rust. I don’t have the original and I thought this version would have been better. I like distressing and I’m disappointed in the final version.
Yes, I’m definitely going to make videos of me weathering it. I’ve already made three videos on my channel modifying some stuff to it if you want to check those out. There will be plenty more videos to come! Thanks
