I can’t even imagine the level of work that must have gone into designing and perfecting a commercial model like this. Insane.

As a lifelong Ghostbusters fan (favorite movie), the reverence, giddiness, and sheer enjoyment Adam's expressing is *everything* to me - I'd be reacting the same exact way should I have this in my possession and were unboxing it. Thank you for allowing me to feel validated by enjoying this vicariously though you, Adam.

Fun fact: The movie is older now than the Ecto-1 was in 1984. The 1959 Cadillac the Ecto-1 is built from was only 25-years old when the movie came out. An similarly aged vehicle today would be a 1998 model.

When I received my Exoto 1/10th scale Ford GT40 MkII, the packaging was quite similar. Double-boxed; inner foam clam shells; and velcro straps. Also, the model was held in place by two thick, wide U-shaped plastic forms that grabbed the model completely around the passenger cabin only, with soft material between them. The two plastic forms snapped together, and tightly indexed into slots inside the foam clam shells. In other words, the model was _suspended_ inside the box!

wish we could have seen it without light on in room.. magical seeing that in dark low light room with blue and flashing lights.. magical moments to be had

I love the taillights and the spaceship back seat. Oh wow the engine is beautiful.

I'm sure Adam has a master's feel for exactly how much different materials can endure before breaking. But I get anxious watching how non-chalantly and violently these things are handled. Which is actually funny considering how much Adam obviously loves these things.

Easy enough to build a display stand with a mirror base so that it can be displayed in all its glory. They display cars that way in car shows all the time.

Beautifully detailed, and the vehicle is definitely needs it's own display case or table. I like the One-man Cot as the stretcher, it reminds me of the one I use at work.

Wow. I had to type that out… The pieces that you have been unboxing have been amazing. I am enjoying every minute of it, without getting into trouble with the Mrs. for filling our home with so many of these great items.

The commitment to imitating the ‘natural linear grace’ of incandescence with LED lighting and motors is heart warming and it lends so much extra reality to the piece. Beautiful.

Glad I'm not the only one that uses the "Aziz, light!" quote in that context :)

Seeing him move this toy around reminds me of the ghostbusters car my grandmother bought me in the late 80s when I was just a few years old. She died shortly after, and I remember holding this toy next to the tire swing in her front yard while the ambulance drove away. I was crying. I remember the sound of my tears on Ecto-1 as they took her. There are tears flowing from my eyes right now because this is BEAUTIFUL. God Bless.

The amount of work producing this awesome model must have been epic.

I wish someone would make a Johnny Five from Short Circuit collectable in this detail.

Utterly incredible!! The joy and excitement from Adam instantly puts a big smile on my face, love it!!! 😍

Wow the detail of that cars build is magnificent from front to back and the working parts and electronics are so awesome. It's an awesome piece my man.

The weathered version had this in the description: The body, which powerfully runs forward, is rich in various secret devices. The gunner seat pops out when the side door opens is exactly reproduced as seen in the movie. Used to catch ghosts, the R.T.V. takes off from the bottom of the vehicle body.

the detail is outstanding in the early 70's I built model cars often and they never had detail like this best they had was a clipper ship my sister got me for christmas one year, like 3 ft long, forget the scale but it took day and days to assemble and it was so detailed

Amazing model! Great video, and i loved the "Aziz, light!!" quote ;)

I'm impressed. It's really big and very realistic like the original. I have a model from lego 10274, it is also big for bricks. This car, however, broke the system and I would love to collect it. The only problem is the price. $2990 is a lot of money to me. It's good that Adam showed him in the movie and I could see him. Hello everyone.

My kid screamed watching you unbox this. Such a beautiful piece! I told him to start saving his money. My three-year-old is now saving for his "dream 1-Ecto" (what he calls it).

Wow, Adam! Looks you have found yourself a very cool toy! Deserves at least a working carousel underneath and a huge glass box above. Truly a collectible gem.

Fun to watch Adam enjoy the Ecto-1 Auto! Christmas came early in 2023!

Next stop-weathering. After that- adding R/C driving and control of lights and sound! Fantastic model!

Your willingness to try things and admit you don't always understand them is what makes it much more approachable for us all I think, great vid

I hope one day I can afford one of these. I truly enjoyed this unboxing experience. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!

Adam I feel like you could daily drive an ecto 1 replica and nobody would question it.

The rotating light bars are awesome! I feel they could be a bit brighter with some higher power LED’s.

I died when he said "Aziz! LIGHT!!" I use this quote all the time especially when i was a contractor and had an apprentice who would hold the torch. Quote is from The Mummy and no one.. NO ONE ever knew what i was on about! So good!!

As a kid of the 1980s who watched the Real Ghostbusters every day before school, this would be an absolute dream to have in my house. The only problem is if I spent $3,000 on a toy my wife would want to spend $3,000 on something too, which means I'm actually out $6,000 if I bought this!

Safe to say he is going to have to build a display case for that beast!

That mp3 player really wants to play the Ecto-1 siren sound on loop. Pure perfection!

I would TOTALLY display that box on my wall! So cool!!!

I saw a fella in a pawn shop trying to borrow $500.00 on one and they tried to loan him $120.00 😂😂🎉 he cut up like brathworth sausage in there.

I remember seeing the original Ghostbusters back when I was a kid on VHS. If you don't know what VHS tapes were look it up😊 I really enjoyed the horror/ comedy films of the 80s and was very glad they captured that balance perfectly with Ghostbusters Afterlife. Definitely a great service to the fans. Too bad we had to endure the terrible 2016 film. Let's just pretend it never happened. RIP to Harold Ramis ❤

The casting and molding looks really well done. I loathe when they get the scale wrong or you get stress lines when they are ejected from the molds. If it's a model kit and you are going to paint over, then you can deal with it but not when it's a finished item.

You can get a 1/6 scale, and 1/1 scale full interactive, driveable with lights on the Veve app and you can take AR photos or selfies with it just like you own one without it taking up all the space and it'll be your own Ecto-1 for when the metaverse releases later this year.
