1/6 Hot Toys - Back to the Future Part III - DeLorean Time Machine Collectible Vehicle

I actually sold my Part 1 recently. It was a bit painful to let go, but it was so similar to the Part 2 I just didn't see the sense in having both anymore.

I bet you got some profit too!

Was this due to be released now? I thought we still had a while.

I already have the version from Part II but not going to lie I’d like this one as well. Probably won’t get it but it’s cool.

Yes the publication is recent, four pages no one cares.

If we’re going by how the PT2 was when this photo was released in the first few days of January 2023. Sideshow charged me the final amount on February 22, 2023. Almost 52 days later. So…. Maybe we’ll see something by mid-January?

Looks like blogger pics are up

This shot seems to show that they finally fixed the missing wires on the left of the steering/dashboard by the vent.

Woohoo, so glad they changed it so the wheels are adjustable and you can lift up the car higher. Because I really did not want to have to do that mod myself.

Anyone know if the straps are real leather?

Anyone have any thoughts on the car based on these photos? Details? Accuracy? Etc. I am interested in it, though far from an expert on the car. Thanks

It looks pretty accurate, except for a few nagging details that they've never gotten quite right with these cars, like the headlights not being a warm white and the color wiring on the side not being vibrant enough.

I wonder if they laser scanned a real Delorean

 

[Mike86]

So torn. I’d love to get the Part III version. If it stays in stock long enough where I can get a good discount again then maybe.

Overall, the DeLorean looks pretty good, some inherent issues notwithstanding.

The wheels stand-out to me the most as being inaccurate.
The chrome hubcaps are slightly too small & inset too far into the dish of the wheel (making them look even smaller) because they reflect too much of the red wheel. The chrome hubcaps on the movie prop almost came out & met the edge of the wheel face (see image).

I seriously doubt the 'leather' straps are real leather, but should be an easy upgrade.
Would love for a modder to create/sell a real wooden hood-tray with the added 'Pepsi-Cola' logo too, as it's missing due to licensing.

It also looks like the hood-tray components don't light up at all, so they may need to be modded too.

I will be picking this up though.
