That's awesome!
Think you could integrate tiny sign boards in there too?

Sorry Matt!
Thanks AJ, I wouldn't quite know where to begin on the sign board...I've been pondering it though......

That is super impressive.
Ecto-1A all lit up will be epic, especially if you do find a way to make the sign boards light up as well.

Great job! I know the pain and frustration of trying to get lots of little LED and wire into places they likely have no right to be! LOL

After I win the lottery I'm sending you a couple of Ecto's to light up for me.

Amazing work!
I'm new to the various Ecto collectibles and was wondering if custom is the only way to have one lighted. It seems most, if not all, of the old store bought versions did not light up. Or is there some obscure/rare version I can hunt down?

Yeah, I figured that was the case with the Hot Wheels/Elite series but does that hold true for the rest of the Ectos that came out over the years? Did none of them ever light up? Seems like such a missed opportunity...
- January 21st, 2014, 9:19 am#473852
But these customs are much better.

Seems like such a missed opportunity...Well, there's always the Trendmasters Ecto-1 Extreme. It's nowhere near movie accurate, but it is pre-wired with sound and lights. You can find them on the 'bay for around $200 NIB.
But these customs are much better.

Yep, I just looked it up and it's not even in the same ballpark (or universe) as slays custom here. Just makes it that much more impressive. Guess I'll save this as a project for some time down the road and/or hire him when I win the lottery like Matt said

Wow, just wow. Looking at my unmodified non-light-up Ectos, I wish I had your patience and skill to make mine blaze like yours, Slaysghost.

Wait...you do commission jobs? Plan on taking on any more this year by chance?

I tried to post earlier, but I don't think it went through. It would be really cool if you could make up decals for the white caddy logos on the hubcaps centers of Ecto-1. I think it would add nice depth to the wheel, that's something I've always wanted for mine. Ecto-1A also had BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires, although I don't think getting the lettering off of the rubber would be an easy task, it would be awesome to ad that last bit of detail. If you ever decide to make those Hubcap centers let me know I'll buy the first set. Your cars look great, you, you've earned
