Yeah, that's the iconic look that I want - but I guess the headsculpt is now done, and so there'll be custom suits (or HT themselves might do a reissue.)
The problem with the outfit that's on him is it has that cheesy "what 80's people thought the future would look like" vibe. I know it was meant to be cheesy to some degree, but it's just not my favorite look.
Yeah it was a pretty fun look, but it's certainly not the best or most memorable outfit I'd want to display the character in.
My sentiments as well pretty much.
If I were going to have just one Doc, I'd want the 1985 radiation suit being that I feel it's the most iconic look, despite BttF II actually being my favorite BttF film. However, for BttF II, I actually like this look the best because if I had the BttF II Marty figure, I'd display him in his futuristic duds with the hover board, so they'd both have their 2015 outfits being that I equate the whole 2015 sequence as best representing BttF II the most. Preferably, I wouldn't want it to be my only Doc figure though.
I kind of think of it as the Strike Suit Captain America figure. Very cool and unique outfit, but if possible, it wouldn't be the only Captain America figure I'd have to represent the character because it's not the iconic Captain America look. It'd be a Captain America figure I'd get in addition to already having a more iconic looking one.
I'll take it though over not having any Doc figure at all. BttF II was my personal favorite of the trilogy as mentioned, so it'll be cool to have both Marty and Doc from it. Hopefully the Marty sculpt though isn't a recycle of the BttF figure. If it is, then I'm out on both Marty and Doc because I wouldn't want this BttF II Doc to be paired with BttF Marty. So whether or not I have a BttF II display or a Doc figure is contingent on what the BttF II Marty sculpt ends up being.
