I don't know if you'll see this, but I just wanted to say I hope that Maximum Destruction Hellfire, as I've always called the design shown in this video, should debut.
Man that Octon8tor is creepy. The Max D and Grave Digger schemes should have debuted for real. Even if they would have likely been ditched by now. Most amusingly Feld had some real good concepts on their hands but went with ThunderRoarUs and the Marvel trucks. Shame really. EDIT: I love the zombie variants even if they might be too much for small children and parents (who cares what they think honestly)
That's a great idea. The detail and amount of pieces of flair it has would not be feasible to be replaced after a freestyle run every week. But a ride truck that (ideally) never crashes could hold all the bells & whistles they want to add.
The futuristic Bigfoot concepts were really cool. It's wild that the Brass Eagle name came from the paint gun sponsor that the truck was designed to push. That coincidence perfectly aligned with setting up Andy to drive it.
I love monster trucks, I however do not love the explosion of 3D bodies, a few here an there are fine, but I really don't like the "over-the-top" ones.
I'd imagine that the zombie concepts were scrapped because they would scare the younger kids. When zombie debuted, I had an active imagination, and he scared the hell out of me. Now that I'm older, I'd love to see the skeleton and burn victim zombie, but with MJ being more geared towards a younger audience, I doubt that will happen. As for the encore, maybe to keep the unknown and creepy ambiance, and also to not scare kids with the "gore" and horror imagery
That ghost Grave Digger the Legend body is the only one on here that I didn't know about and man is it an awesome body. That would've been amazing to see Adam tear that body up. However, I do really love the classic panel van that the real Grave Digger the Legend was. It was just so clean and cool looking. Adam ran coil overs and zoomies and it was such a badass truck
Hey MonsterTalk, I have an idea for a top 10 video. What about top 10 best world finals encores? I will tell you my top 3. Third is the world finals 16 zombie encore (controversial) , second would be the world finals 14 max-d encore and number one would be the world finals 13 grave digger encore. It would be a cool video to see, and I don’t think that it has been done before.
That Captain's Curse concept wouldve went HARD!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥 However just like I always felt with Pirate's Curse, Id have to name it something else like Captain Kidd's or Blackbeard's Revenge. Pirates are too popular of a theme to keep biting off the same name sake.
Imagine for the 50th anniversary of team grave digger they whip out that Grave digger the legend ghost/Grim body. to be completly honest that would be sick in my opinion
These are all great picks, but I'm surprised how bugsey's revenge was not mentioned despite being an Australian truck set to debut in competition, but never happened.
Apex competes in many Beam and Rigs of Rods leagues and competes in Monster Jam All Stars(a ROMJ League) campaigned by Tyler Richmond Update: Apex just made MJAS world finals 4 finishing 3rd in Stadium Series 3
I have both the silver grave digger gray ghost and red maximum destruction hot wheels trucks and always wondered if these trucks ever ran as a kid. Well now i know that they never ran 15 years after purchasing them
I wanna see some new Halloween trucks like wicked witch and vampire and a ghost monster jam truck 2023 spin master should make a wicked witch Monster jam truck this halloween coming
Shoutout to Goldberg's original concept art that made it look much sleeker. The concept design would carry over to the early Goldberg/Meents/Maximum Destruction diecasts, so at least we got to see what it would have looked like.
