1/6 Hot Toys - MMS610 - Back to the Future (1985) - Doc Brown Collectible Figure

[ebor]

Very quick photos…tons of accessories…

Not hating on it as much…

 

[HAL9000.]

The case doesn’t look as bad as I’d expected. What are those two ridges though? On the outer edges of the clasps, running verticle?

 

[ebor]

Yes it has the plastic neck protector…mainly to prevent chaffing of paint when shipping. I don’t see the outfit staining the neck like and Picard did… the holes for the glasses are not as glaringly obvious…still there but not deep.

You have to release those to open the case. The case looks good in hand. I didn’t open it yet.

I think the only thing I’ll need to do with this figure is fill those hair gaps with some Apoxie sculpt and paint it. Overall I think it looks great!

The case is good. I think the radiation suit is fine. It sucks about the sculpt, but I had the most fun putting his outfit together that I think I have ever had with a 1:6 figure. Such a complex costume.

I think as more people get it the hate for it will wear off somewhat. Collectors are fairly dramatic oftentimes. I’m not saying it’s perfect but things get blown out of proportion fairly often.

It's folded cardboard underneath the sticker.

If we can’t get a better option through third part means, the BTTF 3 sculpt isn’t bad if the hat can be removed.

 

[Mike86]

Pretty sure the hats on Part III Doc and Marty are part of the sculpts.

These were just posted on FB by Dean Tolliver Studios. I'm guessing unpainted sculpts.

Definitely the best likeness I've seen yet and blows away the HT.

No, I mean the image shows ridges in the actual case next to the clasps, running vertical. Guessing marks are in the cardboard.

Yeah the case looks as good as I really needed it to look for a background display piece. I've never really understood the outrage over it.

That's all Hot Toys had to include with this figure..

Great looking sculpt from Dean. Will pick one up for sure to replace the stock lazy one.

My opinion hasn’t changed, and you can’t speak for other people. I’m still getting the figure, but looking for solutions in regards to the sculpt and case. Will reserve judgement on the suit until it comes.

Looking good.

For me, it’ll be too much to spend on upgrading this HT figure - probably $89-120 plus delivery unpainted, $150 plus delivery both ways on top to paint it. I’ll wait for the Eleven sculpt in a few months or so.

I disagree personally I do not see him at all in this sculpt like at all. I have seen a debate on it

Yes you are right the hobby is already very expensive

I mean I’m still going to get it later, just not for $336. This figure is not worth $300+.

I’m not speaking for others. I’m simply stating what happens time and time again in this hobby.

X figure is the worst ever and Hot Toys is terrible and blah blah blah. Until it starts to arrive to people and they don’t hate it as much as they initially did.
