Review: 1971 Dodge Challenger RT in 1/18 scale by YCID/Acme (Dark Gold color with Sunroof)
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Hello.
If you have looked through my past reviews, you will notice that I have a few Challengers. Most posted are by Greenlight Collectibles but I do have some Ertl's in the Collection. Anyway, this 1971 is custom made by YCID (John Fox) and the Dark Gold color is just outstanding, especially when sunlight hits it.
Anyway, the rest is fairly similar to my posted convertibles but how did this one fared??

Another great review. I now look at my new additions with more depth thanks to you. Lol. Was never big on vinyl tops on cars to begin with.... Kind of a shame this one has it, especially with the imperfection right on the driver side too.... Very cool having a sunroof though! I can’t remember the last time I saw a diecast with one. I also hate the fuel tubes in the trunks. Lol. Anywho, keep them coming and have a Happy New Year!

Thank you bud! This is basically a full custom job on the roof, hence the imperfections but I'm pretty sure that every other update, the process will keep getting better. And yeah, this is my first Mopar with sunroof and I just love the color. There are others mass produced (Ertl Authentics) but they are hard and also expensive to get. Thanks for watching and commenting and Happy New Year to you as well! 😊💪
Great review, thanks!

That's a great one! Too sad ACME (actually newer HWY 61) have fewer details than the older ones! Still, it's a very desirable and nicely made diecast car! Congrats for the nice review!

Thank you! And totally agree. Have been on the hunt for a HW61 casting to compare but boy are they expensive!

Another spectacular model Bro, I love the minute details like the neat sliding seats, the gearlever, the radio antenna, the canvas finish roof, and the silver window winders. Even the motor is superbly detailed. Your collection is the BEST Bro 😍 A Very Happy New Year to you and your family, God Bless You All Always 🙏

Thank you my friend!! It is a nice model with an spectacular color as well. Happy New Year!!
I love that color! I’m now kicking myself for passing up getting this car. That is so weird that the air cleaner was outside the engine bay. As always, great review!

Mais uma peça maravilhosa, eu só não entendi o porquê dele não ter suspensão e o eixo cardã móveis como nos Highway 61.

Yes, I was wondering the same thing! It's more "Ertl" than Highway 61 with the exception of opening trunk, paint job, etc. 🤷🏽♂️ Maybe HW61 had two different castings!? Not sure.

Nice video. Was hoping to see the sunroof. Does it close? How does the sunroof look overall?

I did record the sunroof from a top view... right?! Hopefully I did. Lol. Anyway, no, it is not functional as far as I know but I'll double check. I think it looks good even with the vinyl stickers not being perfect! I'll post a few pics on my Instagram! Thanks for watching and commenting!

In your opinion better than HW61 and GL for the price?
@DiecastNewb
Ай бұрын
It's better than Greenlight for sure in terms of overall quality, but if price is an issue, GL models are ok. HW61 have the upper hand, especially interior details (including dash) but are pricy on ebay! So models acquired will really depend on budget constraints. Thanks

1 of 60 but no serial number???

Hello. No. I think that I've seen numbered plates somewhere but it might be for the actual, normal, coupes and not these. For this version, there's no numbered plate or a COA. The only difference are the sunroof, the 1 of 60 box sticker and the extra Gold 71 Challenger box sticker.
not worth 250 bucks on ebay!

Well, as per every other collectible item, they are worth whatever the collector is willing to pay for it! 😉 If you take into account that this is a limited edition release of 60 cars, that there's no other version of this particular one with a sunroof option and that the color kicks ass, then I could argue that it could probably fetch EVEN MORE than $250!!! (Personally if I would ever sell mine, I would ask for more!!) BUT... If you are a casual collector, if you don't particularly like that dark Gold color or if you don't care about the sunroof, then yeah, as stated in the conclusion, I would probably go for a cheaper option. It's really buyer's choice. I don't regret buying it because I just fell in love with the color plus I didn't have a sunroof Mopar in the collection. This fit the bill and can't wait for other releases! 😬💪🏽 Thanks for watching and commenting. Happy New Year!!
