Why thumb down the video just because you can't afford it? I can't afford one of these either, but they are clearly high quality and a labor of love.
+MetalJesusRocks Well said. And nice to see you commenting on yet another channel I follow. Heh. :)
If u couldn't afford amalgam just buy 1:18th Autoart. Some of them have 500 parts in it with price of 250. Btw: I'm just a car die cast model collector not work for any brands mentioned.
+MetalJesusRocks No test ride = thumbs down
+YuanGS GS I completely agree and I came here to post the same thing. AutoArt models are extremely nice, on a RUclips video you'd hardly notice the difference between those and these "1%er" models. If you ask me, these Amalgam models are simply "look how much money I have to p*** away."
+MetalJesusRocks see my comment to the video... I love Amalgam and I had some of their models but these three are the worst I've ever seen.
Considering the hours worked and material costs to make one of those, it actually is a fair price. That's the annoying thing about being an artist of any kind... good art takes so long to make that even if you charge a fortune for each piece, you're still only making just enough money to live on.
+Kragatar finally someone who get it.
+Kragatar one hundred percent accurate..
Imam Dwi Septiadi with hanging mirrors... :-(
Kragatar yes it is a lot of work not easy but it's a passion
the price is really fair
When I started the video, I was thinking, "he's finally showcasing a car I can afford!". NOPE.....
anything Leno showcasing can't afford imagine him doing a toothbrush advertorial only then perhaps, but maybe still not!
Not true, he showcased Volga Gaz 21 it costs like....nothing , maybe 1k Max in Ukraine
My actual car cost less
@@g60force Dude, I know this comment is 4 years old, but learn what punctuation is!
Why didn't Jay go for a test ride?
+Knights2theEnd "What! No Burn-out!"
Because he didn't want to mess up his hair.
+Knights2theEnd Hammond my be able to take one for a test ride... Not sure about Jay
I think it's because he's from America.
Knights2theEnd his ego wouldn't fit. His talent was already in the glove box.
AutoArt, Minichamps, Sunstar and Kyosho: "We make the best and most authentic automobile scale models!"
Amalgam: "Hold my resin."
A $7000 "Father's Day Present". Wow. I do not live in that stratosphere.
Anyone else disappointed they didn't take them out on the freeway?
Me. I wanted to see Jay leave his blinker on while driving one of the lighted versions.
+Amesie's Automotive Corner i wanna see jay pushing one along making vroom noises
+antsolja but will it do a burn out?
Sitting here in England, in the rain, thinking I could be doing something other than watching RUclips ;) Great video of some gorgeous models, cheers !
+Dave Caldwell hehe still bloody raining 1 day later, loved the comment about rain and the uk having nothing better to do but make models because its always raining lol jay wasn't lying :) greets from wet and miserable Yorkshire
If people are upset about the price, it's important to remember that these are not Hot Wheels; these are pieces of art. Artists often sell their works at a price point that reflects the time or energy put into the piece. 7-12 grand seems steep if you compare it to a 300 dollar remote-control car at your local hobby shop, but these are completely different. As an artist who has had to worry about pricing multiple times (people -- especially younger people -- seem to think everything is or should be free these days) so I can see the amount of work that goes into these. The only missing from these is a miniature human to drive them.
Tim Dev Next time you're at an art show or taking a professional photo with your family, just tell them you're only willing to pay for the materials used.
+Beau Handyman I get your point these cars are worth the money just based on the time spent making them and the craft but its certainly better than actual art. Especially modern art which has had no time, effort of thought put into it especially not material cosy as there usually scrap parts and odds and ends so they are actually worthless. You have to be a special kind of moron to spend millions on art. Even the old Art that took days if not weeks to paint are not worth $100million in any time and materials its just a painting but people pay obscene amounts for it. Your comparison to a photographer is also silly as they don't spend anytime doing it, once the lighting rigs are setup which isn't hard you just take the picture. I have an SLA camera and just messing with shutter speed and light balance and things have taken better photos than any family photographer I've seen.
I used to build the 1/12th Tamiya F1 kits and those took over 100 hours with all the detailing. I remember the Italian Piocher were art work for their time. Nice piece Jay, thanks.
It's a lot of money for a model, but I can appreciate the extraordinary detail and laborious intricate work that goes into making them.
"Who would possibly buy these?!" Dude, I'll be straight with you. If I had the money to buy a LaFerrari or even a goddamn BMW M4, I would probably spend an extra grand or two to make a wonderful replica and put it on my display shelf. Why? Because when the actual car is in the garage, I cannot see it. So the solution to that is simply turn my head and look at the stunning replica. Then it might lure me into driving the actual car for leisure purposes.
But you got to admit, these things look wonderful.
Surely if you had that kind of money, you would just park the LaFerrari in the living room.
You're both Idiots!😂😂😂😂
@@ZGryphon I was about to say the same thing.
Jay you should look up Milan Paulas the guy builds 1/5th scale F1 Ferraris out of Paper and all the pieces work it's truly amazing
I just saw that yesterday, I agree.
I also make paper models with just card-boards, art-papers, rexin since my childhood...and his models has just became my inspiration, after I saw ur comment...He's the maestro...Thank you for mentioning his name...
I have a large diecast collection, but these are on a next level.....
Amazing Craftsmanship! I mean it's just amazing to look at them.. all the hardwork and energy put in them it's just incredible. They totally worth every penny if you can afford them.
I own a few of these, amazing models.
Rich guy
No you don't....😭
Just check out my channel.
+Pseudos Rekt
+Pseudos Well he does actually own em..so rekt.
The LaFerrari from Amalgam is really great! 100% worth the money!
Beautiful masterpieces 😍 Wish to watch those in person.
"How cool is that?" A looooooong shot from my AMT, Revell, Monogram plastic model cars days !!
This work is just beautiful !
Thanks, Jay !!
Just got one, F-1 2016 Vettel version in 1/12 scare. Worth every penny truly unbelievable in detail and workmanship..... just a amazing model.
jay you are the man for this, A true car guy through and through
Jay Leno's Garage that's why we love so much because you make great shows with great information, Thank you!!
I used to spend silly amounts of money on Car models 8-10 years ago. On 1:18 Hot Wheels Elite models of Ferrari's and supercars alike. This makes Me feel a young teenage again. Inner geek :)
Please don't go feeling young teenagers again, +Alastair Brown.
+Alistair Brown I got one from an ex for sale, want to spend some of your silly money with me?
+Alastair Brown ive been collecting mostly 18th and 43rd scale model for 2 years now, spent almost 30k on them now
+D3X1M3REMIXED Wise words. LoL
Fantastic models. Laughed when Jay said there were drops of oil under the Miura model. I always had problems with my Miura models leaking oil. Just lovely to see.
Amalgam is the combination of any metal that alloys with mercury.
Thats what they use for fillings, or atleast used to. Cool to see you here btw
Edit: Well i should watch the video and then comment, because he said it derp
+TAOFLEDERMAUS Thanks, Jeff!
$10,000 For a model lamborghini? ? wtf imagine how many shotguns you could get for that.
+Rusty Nutzz Double that, and you could almost afford a Perazzi. .
+TheRipler I was referring to something more affordable like a stoeger or something which retails for around $600 in Australia.
The detail is INSANE!!! 😍
I would love to own all of my dream cars in that scale...but that would cost me a fortune...not as much as the real ones, but still more than I could ever afford.
Amazing work.
Look into model factory hiro 1/12 kits you can build one just as detailed
Wow, thanks for showing us these precise copies of dream cars!
absolutely marvellous, quite a piece of art. Congratulations for such a gorgeous work of art.and thank you for sharing.
love that 1:8 Miura! I have to add one Amalgam in my collection ;)
Beautiful art work. cool that they us all authentic materials. I can't afford. but still awesome.
Thanks for sharing, Jay! One day, I will get one of these models.
It is amazing how quickly can manual labour and custom parts add up in price, even when building tiny models. And consider that the craftsmen who build these are not even getting paid that much more than your average worker, even though the product is 6-10 thousand dollars! Truly magnificent.
I was following Schmee150 on RUclips and he was at one of the Amalgam plants where he is getting a model of his car built. They had a couple of tables with all the parts laid out before assembly. It was mind boggling.👍👍
Wow the detail on those is incredible!
Lol i used to work for these guys (amalgam). I used to sit polishing the paint work on those things for hours. So much effort was put it to them
Amazing models, such attention to detail
I'm good with my maisto cars from Costco which are $14 each
Matt Michael $14?
You're getting ripped off
I bought a Welly Chevy Tahoe and a Motormax CHP Ford Explorer at a yard sale for $18 for both. My Maisto Ferrari cost me $20 at a truck stop in Nevada, but I would like to own an Amalgam model car.
Hey guys. I'm from India. Looking to buy some good diecast from the US. You guys have some great stuff. Can you suggest some good websites? Would be very helpful.
Amos Michael Eligius atlpassiondiecast.com/13-diecast?p=18 has quality cars.
They are good quality models
I miss the old Pocher models, I bought the Ferrari Testarossa Convertible and the Porsche 911 for $300 each back in the 1990's from Model Expo in Florida and I was just about to order the Ferrari F40 and they said they were no longer available due to a fire at the Pocher factory in Italy . I still have the ones I built
Amazing detail, love the lighting!!
Nice. Looking great. Tanned and lean, Jay. Thanks for the great content.
That Lambo is so realistic, you have send 1000$ a month to the Factory to stop it from falling apart!
Gorgeous, especially the La Ferrari. Thanks Jay. Nice to fantasize about super nice model cars.
Blown away! Such beautiful workmanship. I'm with Jay, I don't see the intrinsic value of many collectibles in this price range, but I do see it in these fine creations. Maybe someday I can afford one. At least it doesn't take up as much space as the real thing. :)
Thank you Jay for this video... now I have respect in Amalgam's asking price
Very cool! Thanks for sharing!
Real car or model, the beautiful Lambo Miura still knocks me dead. The ‘60s still own the best looking supercar ever, hands down.
Very impressive model cars. I myself present high-quality model cars from my collection on my channel. I would be interested in whether and if so Jay also has a large model car collection. Or has he already announced something in that direction? Greetings from Germany!
Gorgeous! I love building model kits :)
Been wwaiting for this video for so long!
Nothing will give you more pride ,satisfaction , or sense of accomplishment than completely assembling a model kit on your own. Hence the popular saying.....Built, not bought.
Could they replicate my Honda Odyssey?
+Po Russki With enough dough sure. Even a Prius.
They probably can but i doubt it'd be worth it for a car like that
I want this done on my 2000 Camry
Bolek989 😂😂😂
It will probably be worth more than your actual odyssey
I'm heavy into scale rc. This is great!
Love to see your early 1900's electric car done as one of these jay!!!!!
Wow just amazing work!
They looks so amazing!
These model cars are absolutely stunning.
Awesome model cars. I build plastic kits of cars and bikes and I can appreciate what goes into making them. Even if those models were offered as kits they would still be pretty expensive too, at least $1000 +.
Wow! We cover lots of models on our channel but never these! Need to look into this!!!
Jay has a talent to produce interesting videos. Very interesting
Kids our age. Love it. Be great to get something that size running.
Hey Jay Leno. Please start using 60fps on your videos!!! Thumbs up this so jay sees the message!
great show, keep up the good work!
EXCELENTE POSTAGEM,BY JAY LENO'S GARAGE .
I knew these would be expensive the moment I saw the interior details. But price aside, they look great.
AMAZING! I love model cars and have a pretty good collection of 1:18 scale cars. Simply put you are paying for quality and these model cars here are very, very impressive. It is easier to look at them as works of art rather than toy models. Wow!
such a really amazing work!
seven geeeeeeeee??? jesus
+Adam K ...or 2 or 3 million.....
If you can afford to pay 3 million for a car, $7K is like you or me buying a coffee.....
Not to be all social justice or anything and I applaud these guys for their workmanship, but when people will spend what amounts to a year's salary for some people, on a static model....then there's something wrong in the world.....
Adam K and they'll do it every time a new one comes out, and not only that, line up for days to do it.....
Not saying it is JUST the wealthy......I was talking with a marketing guy recently and he told me about a pair of gloves he sold in his store.....it cost $18.00 to make...he could sell them for $36 and make 100% ROI. But in order to sell them in his store, at his target customers, he's going to list them at $150 a pair....because his customers would RUN from them at $36.00.
+Michael C people moan about rich people wasting money, but look at it like this, is that 7k better in the rich guys bank account, or better paying the wages of the guys building these cars. It's the same with everything, the money does no one any good, just sat in the bank. Spent it and help keep the economy going. Doesnt matter what it is it helps.
+michael C There are lots of stories about people who couldn't sell products until they increased the price. Some may be apocryphal but some must be true. After all, humans are pretty silly creatures.
danmar007 there is an old saying, if your going to make a watch, make the most expensive one on offer. You can swap watch for almost anything. If it's cheap, you'll sell millions if it'd good enough, but margins will be next to nill, if your middle of the road on price, you'll never be seen, so make the most expensive, make then a limited run, and you'll sell out before you even start building the first one. Ferrari do this every year.
amazing static display, really like it. subbed too 👍🏼
Much respect to Jay!
Thats just amazing.
You should have them do one of your Pantera. I bet they haven`t done one of those yet.
The one episode where Jay actually keeps his hands off the car(s) 😂
magnificent Models, Jay !!!!.
I want a mini Jay Leno's garage full of these :) how cool would that be :)
stunning,yes jay your right about the UK weather. The lambo does it for me...
I have been dreaming about these Amalgam models for years. The McLaren F1 GTR road car they did a while back is awesome!
I agree with Jay: nobody builds models better than the Brits. These are beautiful. But Jay in my experience you can tell it's a model in a photo by the finish and the body joins. I want one.
5:36 Those mirrors!
Lol
My friend Tim is getting one of these.
wew...!!!This is amazingly made...!!!
I might get one for my rx-7. Calculating a decent pay these cars are actually worth the price
This is AMAZING!
That's really amazing
I hope Jay got one as a gift for hosting this
But will it do a burn out?
Great vid... Love the depth of variety!
Guys, over the years, may it be great restaurants or cool gadgets or anything, I found that many of them will go down if people who likes them don't buy. Granted, the price is steep. For those who can afford and interested, I would encourage you to go get one, just to keep yourself happy and them in business. It is great that something like this exists.
I live in bristol, england.... how have i never heard of these guys??
Man those F1 models are amazing.
The OEMs provide the build sheets!!!!! wow, they must really trust these guys
Stuart Little owns a few of these I've heard.
I love Amalgam... they do the best collector editions.
I wish I can afford an F1 example
6000 for one that sits on a shelf, everyone looks at it and goes wow. Or less than 400 for a semiscale one that does 60mph and makes me giddy. Still amazing work on those models, very cool.
These put my little Tomica die-casts to shame. Very cool.
Each film ending should have different honk sound from Jay's cars. That would be cool.
Proud to be Bristolian! Good work Amalgam!
Great model cars!!!
Jay as a UK resident, there's a lot of truth, in what you have said about the UK weather. like know it's grey, cold and raining. So no insults.
Indeed Jay, "How cool is that ?" indeed!
These are for the guys who buy the real thing. Its a niche market but Im glad they exist. Ultra high end craftsman and quality items are a dying breed in our mass produced world.
beautiful!
Minichamps builds some 1/8 porsche models with the price tag of under 2000 euros .. but they are sealed i think
Those models are awesome😀
