Blitzway 1:6 Ghostbusters - ECTO-1

[Ted Knight's Ghost]

I?m buying a Moducase for this, needs to be kept safe and secure.

Ah, nice. I didn't know about these. Which one do you plan on getting?

The DF130 or the MAX140.
It depends on the final measurements of the Ecto as to which one I?ll purchase.

Nice. I appreciate you telling me about these, I had no idea about these displays. I want one as well. I noticed they're pre-order, do you know when the cases will be available?

Thanks.

No prob!
Yeah everything is made to order from what I understand. Looks like their business plan is not to carry that much and manufacture when required. That could be changing though as they are moving to a larger facility soon.

Well the Batmobile was 94 lbs, so I guess 88 doesn't seem too far off for Ecto. Sideshow does say they ship by dimensional weight instead of product weight, so not sure if that helps or not.

Hopefully pics or video sometime today, I really want to see this. I am hovering over the order button. One of two or three pretty expensive pieces I am interested in picking up in 2020.

I just discovered an awful thing...Sideshow is charging tax now. This will have me rethinking my collecting habit for sure.

Don?t feel too bad, I pay tax and customs with every Sideshow order.

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

I wonder if existing preorders are exempt, or if they hit you with tax when it ships? Probably the latter

 

[Bgnyc007]

I think the tax thing depends on the state. I am in FL no tax for orders here yet....

 

[xipotec]

Man I didnt even order this and I have butterflys for you guys....

I hope people do look at the overall achievement and not nitpick the small stuff...

All from Ben Chan on Facebook. He shot a very short video with the lights on and the motors for rotating lights seemed very loud. He did not have the siren on.

Awesome, this guy had to move his real car out of the garage to make space for this thing! Priorities of collectors.....

Wow, it looks great!

A public service announcement from the BBICN Forum:

Purchased BLITZWAY 1/6 ECTO-1 Buffy car players Please note, please unopened packaging cartons being flat on the ground.

If the outer carton is placed on the floor in an upright position, unnecessary parts may be crushed and damaged.

The following figure shows the wrong placement:

Looks pretty damn good to me! The body seems to have a nice shine to it, and doesn't come across as flat and plasticky as I feared it might.

Just watched the video clip and yeah those motors are freaking loud. Gonna need to turn the siren up to 11 just to drown them out. Lol. Or maybe putting it in a glass case will help muffle the sound a bit?

All that inside detail is amazing. The shot of the steering wheel and front bench seat looks like a shot of a real car !

Congrats to those that got this behemoth, certainly the jewel of any Ghostbusters collection !

Looks Great. My Basement is ready!

They certainly improved the interior.. slight tweak to the rear fins paint too, now thats 100% correct.

So how did this guy get it early, and when do we get ours?
