don't bother man... that's what I see when I look in the mirror

Looking at that pic, I also wonder what version of the Doc they are gonna go with. 80s radiation suit or 50's clothes with trench? Marty works either way.

Same here. I was at work and got the email, clicked on it and clicked buy and went back to work. Not even sure if i looked at the price

This is one of those figures that even though it is going to look weird in my collection, I have to have it.

(There's my DX11, DX12, Bane, Mark 1 2.0, BD Mark VII, Iron Whiplash Mark II.......Oh and Marty McFly circa 1985.)

POed n' looking forward Hover Dolorean and Doc-Brown. year 2016? Hope not.

Just a question. It seems that Sideshow are not accepting flex pay waitlist reservations? So if your on the waitlist and it converts they expect payment in full?
Update: Found the answer, no and yes. Nice way to circumvent payment plans on a hot item. Quickly place it on the waitlist. Very clever.

I'm pretty shocked how quickly the waitlist went up for the EX. Forum chatter doesn't always represent mass popularity, but I guess Back to the Future will do it!

I also got my preorder in.

I waitlisted the EX. This guy's too awesome, and I didn't want to chance it.

Correct, you cannot flex on anything thats on WL

But you can convert it to flex after it converts.

also, on the delorean, I'm expecting it to be more in line with the tumblr in price, as there is some reuse potential there.

It
l be cheaper than the 89 bat mobile, but not by much.

bottom tier pricing, around 499-549.

upper end pricing 599-650.

I dont see see it being in the 700-1000 range. Not with three of them they can pump out with minor cosmetic differences.

Think I might wait and get the bttf2 version. Gotta have that hover.

subzro says no you say yes. According to some other posts its a grey area and up to Sideshow's discretion.

Got my PO in for an Exclusive! Very happy to see this line. Need Doc with his dog, and I'll be happy with or without the Delorean!

Well I guess I have a different idea of cost-value. Well $400+ I could see myself paying if I had to have it but any more than that is absurd.

I don't know if i would use the word *absurd*.
They are running a business. It's not about covering their costs and making $5 per item. It's about pricing the final piece as high as they can within reason.
I'd go to $900 for one, but *only* if it was one version with parts for all five versions. Otherwise, I expect it to be $600, with a later re-release.
I am quietly confident they will release it as a one-for-all like the batmobile. But with a premium price.

Yes I did

HI-RES pg 112 post# 1117

Still can't believe EX didn't last 24 hours lol. And the Delorean won't be priced less than $699...you're dreaming if you think otherwise. Especially seeing how fast Marty went, HT knows the demand is there. And they'll probably milk two versions of it.

Can totally believe this sold out fast. Kinda knew it would, jumped on that ex right as I saw it.

Howard confirmed they were making figures from all three films. Bring on 2015 Marty!
