Imperial Diecast

Imperial Diecast

Hello, similar to Doug deMuro and Hoovie's Garage, I am also a car enthusiast but one who invests a lot of time in detailed reviews of real car replicas in various scales, ranging from 1/18 and 1/24 to 1/43 and in between. This channel is NOT made for minors, who will find my videos tediously long and boring. My channel is strictly for adults who can take the time and interest to sit back and appreciate the rich and illustrious history of cars, from exotic Ferraris and Lamborghinis to road legends like Mercedes and BMWs but also American muscle cars and land yachts from the 1950s to 80s, as well as the intricate details and fine parts these replicas have to offer and the pros and cons of the pricetags that come with them. Please check out my photography on flickr and follow me on instagram too.

    I know this was 3 years ago 😅. But did you have any issue with the front removable panel. Because I bought the 4 tier one, and my front panel is a pain to remove. You have to take the top off for it to come off. It might have been shaped wrong. It fits once you get it in though. Just wondering if you had that issue or not. Great video!

    This is a 1994 Seagrave Maurader II pumper and from late 1993 all the way to late 1995 they’ve used the double grill on these early to mid 90s rigs this also includes the ariel ladders and tower ladders we have. From 1996-2007 we used the single grill but came back to the double grill in 2008 but the lower grill was attached to the uppet grill they still use this style but in a different shape format it’s still the same grill but the corners are much sharper than it’s older versions they started doing the sharper corner double grills in 2013 and that is still seen on newer engines and ladders today in NYC. But when they started going back to the round corner double grills that were combined together they put the vintage white light bar beacons with leds next to the halogen rotating light bulbs inside for the left and right side of the rigs and then just the leds in the beacons in the middle. These rigs for the engines were used to replace the old late 80s Mack CF pumpers such as: Engine 1, Engine 7, Engine 14, 15, Engine 16, Engine 24, Engine 28, Engine 33, Engine 50, Engine 74, Engine 76, Engine 79, Engine 80, Engine 84, Engine 93, Engine 154, Engine 159, Engine 161, Engine 164, Engine 202, Engine 207, Engine 209, Engine 216, Engine 217, Engine 218, Engine 221, Engine 234, Engine 237, Engine 238, Engine 240, Engine 243, Engine 246, Engine 254, Engine 260, Engine 261, Engine 264, Engine 273, Engine 275, Engine 285, Engine 293, Engine 297, Engine 307, Engine 315, Engine 321, Engine 324, Engine 325, Engine 330, and Engine 332. The 2014 Seagraves replaced: Squad 18, Squad 41, Squad 61, and Squad 288. The Seagraves replaced some 1989 and 1991 Mack tower ladders such as: Ladder 14, Ladder 17, Ladder 33, Ladder 58, Ladder 117, Ladder 119, Ladder 121, Ladder 131, Ladder 153, etc etc

    I want to ask this. This "shadow box" has been a pain in the ass, and I have been searching every corner of the internet, but can't find the true cure. Is there, up until this moment, any true solution to this, or just compromises, that the this is how the game is and we have to accept?

    Nvidia's shadow is broken with the box effect, when you get close to shadows not only your shadows get shaper (which is realistic) but also the shadows of a tree with it's leafs (which is not realistic) because the tree ain't moving, the shadows of the tree should be exactly same no matter how far or close you get... I tired so many methods to remove this "box effect" but yet I'm still unable to do so

    Da hast du ein schönes Modell gefunden. Ertl (heute autoworld) hat auch ganz gute Modelle.

Aber was ich klar sagen muss, dass mir dieser Camaro besser als der Firebird aus dieser Zeit gefällt.

    Great review and very good video. Thanks for posting. I have been indecisive between this motormax and the GT auto. But now there are two Chinese pull backs cheaper than both with working lights and more detail. This model is actually not bad. Motormax is a mish mash of good and bad. Like the interior and overall shape of the car is catchy but the door panel gap and the rear lower bumper gap are turn offs. I have the fully open Chrysler 300c with the same type of highs and lows. But I like it.

    ​@@BenniRoR Well, you have to remember that we are talking about game running on 11 year old engine. RAGE 7 to be exact, very old build in comparison with RDR2's RAGE 8 and how RAGE 9 presents itself in GTA 6 trailers. I remember that when in 2015 i first saw GTA V on maxed out settings i was veeery impressed. The level of details and realism was immense, today even tho it still looks good, it doesn't knock me off my chair anymore.

    I also have this model. I love the early Mavericks before the battering ram bumpers. This is a super nice model. I switched the tires and rims for Ford Rallys and white letter tires. It doesn't bother me that it's a static model. I never display any of my models with the doors or hoods open. Automoddello sells their static models for hundreds of dollars each, so these are great for me. I detail mine with bare metal foil and a little detail painting, and they look even better. I also add my own license plates that I have from old model kits.

    7:49: the fog lights are placed in the front fascia, while under the plexiglas on the hood there are the turnsignals, that's why it's correct on the 1/18 version where the red lights are corrected placed but uncorrect in the 1/24 where there's nothing under the plexiglas: just an empty space.
