Hot Wheels Elite Ghostbusters 2 Ecto 1A 1:18 Scale

Not much was left of these so I figured I grab the Hot Wheels Elite Ecto 1A before the Elite Ecto 1. Now I don't know if there will be renewed interest in acquiring these particular models, what with the upcoming Ghostbusters 3, so I figured, what the heck...

Since I don't yet have the Ecto 1 (I've since received the Ecto 1 which I will cover in another post to follow), I've nothing to compare this to where the differences are concerned but we all know that a revamped Ghostbuster car was done for the movie sequel. There is the obvious added ghost busting items on the rack. The one concern that Hot Wheels addressed in the Ecto 1A was the addition of the Proto Packs on the gurney which was absent in their Elite Ecto 1 model much to the dismay of die hard collector fans. One thing I didn't address in the video below was the amazing photo-etched wipers which gives this model a very realistic edge. The wheels are rubber. The one highlight that impressed me a lot was the detail that was brought into the engine. Much like the wiring found on Hot Wheels' Elite 1:18 DeLorean, the wirings found under the Ecto 1A's hood is not molded plastic but flexible plastic tube wirings. Very impressive to say the least!

You are going to make me spend more $.

Andrea going to "LOVE" me!

Sorry dude, lol

I have more to post in the months to come...... so tread lightly, hehe

I'm focussing more on classic cars, that I personally love, that have appeared in either TV or movies.
