Hot Toys - Back to the Future - 1/6 DeLorean Time Machine

[Optibotimus]

Can you give us a bit more information about the stickers? What sticker are there and how difficult are they to apply?

There are a couple stickers. The license plate is one. The rest are gauges on the inside of the car. Not terribly difficult to apply

I read of some moaning about the time circuitry not lighting up or the pillars being slightly off being a deal breaker. Not ideal however I hope some of you aren't serious about not ordering this due to these minor flaws as I don't know how you will ever get another *1/6* scale Delorean (unless your banking on bttf 2 which is not garaunteed)

In any case I can't wait for this to ship!!

I will say at SDCC (i think) two years ago, there were several people responsible for the actual restoration of the DeLorean hero car from the movie. They were really critical about how Hot Toys made the DeLorean and how they got several things wrong. Sadly, i didn't really get more info from them. But i think in general, people will be happy with this.

Some concerns raised about missed opportunities/inaccuracies with this ultra-expensive collectible constitutes moaning? Interesting.

Yeah I'm moaning about this, cause I didn't think I have to apply stickers to this iconic car like a cheap Kenner $19.99 vehicle from the 1990's.

Apologies poor choice of words and didn't mean to offend anyone. Agree that for the price that this will go for, they should have perfected the design/features.

My point is yeah it's not 100% accurate but if you LOVE the franchise (like I do)... A few flaws to me is acceptable versus NOT owning a 1/6 Delorean at all.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

It's OK.

I don't think too many people - if any - have canceled. Almost every release is accompanied by some initial disappointment. When people start getting them in hand, when there are more pics in this thread and/or YouTube reviews, there'll likely be positive word of mouth.

Some will decide to pull the trigger and buy, others will choose not to and every now and then point out what they feel is wrong with it and still others will wait for a sale/discount/more news of the flying DeLorean.

Kenner never made a Back to the Future car. Fail.

 

[Armymedic1980]

It's all good anyway. I also agree that once people have it on their hands, all the flaws won't matter at all, cause it's still the best and only 1/6 scale of the Delorean that's not perfect but still pretty good.

Nerd.

I never said Kenner made a BTTF car. I was trying to say that Kenner made vehicles ( GIjoe, Star Wars and many others) and most of them needed stickers applied to complete it.

My Top 3 Rides (I'd buy 2 of ea)
1. BTTF DeLorean
2. Ecto-1
3. Kaneda bike

The only other vehicle i'd want in 1/6 scale or bigger would be the Ecto-1 lol

I already own two of these

 

[kvsm23vs24]

is this going to be a quick seller? or do you guys think it will wait a while until it sells out?

I can live with the flaws. Im just gonna add in a few "wires" to the interior to make it look a little more cluttered and messy. I dont have long to wait now....

No idea, although a few of the UK websites are showing as sold out. I pre ordered on day 1 and I will do the same for the flying version if it ever happens. I will buy anything HT churns out for BTTF
