1/6 Hot Toys - MMS573 - Back to the Future (1985) - Marty McFly (2.0) & Einstein Collectible Figure

[choombaz]

I have the Original Hot Toys Marty from Part 1 I think.

It's the one with the open mouth. I always wondered why doesn't Hot Toys include extra portraits?

It always kinds of bothers me a bit. I think a stoic and an expression face should be mandatory.

Would be great but the head sculpt would be the most time demanding and expensive part of a figure I’m guessing, sculpting, painting, licensing approvals. I get why they pretty much never do it anymore.

Just received payment request from Popcultcha, so they finally got their stock.

I received shipping notification on the weekend- it should be here in Sydney tomorrow.

Hope you get yours soon too!

Looking pretty good! Comparison with the original release coming soon!

Finally got around to checking this set out. Pretty good overall, and can't wait for the Radiation Suit Doc Brown to come out too!

Some interesting differences to the original release too. Video thoughts coming up soon

Beautiful shot. Waiting for your reply. I have ordered the Devo Doc but haven't got this one yet because SS is the only place i can order one.

Here are my thoughts on the Marty and Einstein set, with a comparison against the original figure. Hope you can check it out!

Looking forward to Radiation Suit Doc Brown joining Marty and Einstein in the collection!

Hope these sell well. I want those prototypes that were shown off for BTTF 2

What prototypes for BTTF2? Or do you mean the BTTF3 figures that were announced? The previous BTTF2 figures were released a while ago now.

@VintageDisney is probably referring to these prototypes they showed at a con years ago …

Yeah I’m talking about these. I’d love to add them to the collection. We got the future version of BTTF 2, but since we’ve gotten a rerelease of BTTF1 and BTTF3 coming, these would fit quite well and differentiates from the previous released BTTF 2 figures. I’m crossing my fingers

 

[VintageDisney]

And I’ll continue crossing my fingers for a while . Dunno why they havent release them yet

at the moment, you can get Marty and Einstein for a good deal at Zavvi (formerly Virgin Mega Store) in their promo:

Four months later and I'm still waiting for mine to get delivered. I was wondering did you get yours yet?

Have to say I really do like the re-release more the longer I’ve had it and think it was a worthy upgrade. The outfit alone is a lot better in terms of tailoring. Also while not perfect I do like the inclusion of Einstein.

I think you might have to time travel to get it

“Wednesday October 21st …. 2015”

Four months?! Have you actually contacted Zavvi to ask if they're actually going to deliver it? I have heard that there have been incidents where Zavvi cancels preorders when they cant actually fulfill them. So I'd definitely recommend checking directly with Zavvi on why there's a delay.

Well I did received an email from them a few months ago notifying a delay to July. I guess it doesn't hurt to ask again.

What are the differences between this release and the original? I have the original.

That webpage does say October 2022 release date

Slightly different tailoring on the costume (including a breast pocket for the walkman). Includes Einstein. No sunglasses. Slightly different headsculpt.

Am I missing anything?
