I need a General Lee in my collection. They are hard to find. Cool video👍 Slot cars and diecast are very close in details and realism. Both diecast and slots have come a long ways with details as compared to older ones.
The prices for a general Lee have gone through the roof. I was looking for a diecast to compare with my slot car, but the prices are out of control. The main difference at this point is the diecast shows more of the mechanics of the car than the slot car can, but the tradeoff is you can’t drive the diecast. Thanks for watching.
@slotcarsandhotrains Yes, they have for the General Lee. Prices are crazy. I've seen them high as nearly approaching over $150 and up for a sealed one in the pack. That's for a 1/64 scale. That was the coolest car on TV at its time and growing up, watching the Dukes of Hazzard was a good show. The car was the star of the show just like the Trans Am in Smokey and the Bandit movies. I'll keep watching the channel, great content for the hobby to keep going...
AW-Ultra G, yes, Xtraction nooh. Afx Yes👍 Its a discussion HO manufacturers need to hear. Great comparisons. Yes, they are blurring the lines on scale accuracy. Slot cars have an edge in some areas. Bauer. - Nice disclaimer towards the end. Feel the same. 👍👍😎🇺🇸
I doubt they watch my channel but HO needs to step their game up, they must innovate if they are going to remain relevant. I have had issues with detail from day one, I wanted the cars to look more like the real car. I guess they assume that kids didn't care, maybe a 5 year old doesn't but the older ones do.
Nice comparisons .. Thanks Kenton ... General Lee is Nice ... It looks like in some instances slot surpassed die cast in detail ... at least in what you are showing here Slots sharper detail
Nice comparison, I have the pioneer original first produced General Lee it's so nice they did it so good! Don't know why they don't show the Dukes of hazzard on tv no more as the show never had anything that bad ever in any of the episodes at all heck there are a lot of old tv shows they still play now and they were a hell of a lot worse than any dukes of hazzard episodes that's for sure! What we need is more TV shows like the Dukes Of Hazzard these days everything now on TV is filth and murder and shootings!
