Blitzway: Back to the Future

[JacktheRipper]

You must be forgetting that epic scene where Marty used the turn signals. Leaving the movie theater it was all we could talk about.

 

[Scout Trooper]

For ***** sake...

 

[Godfather1408]

Utterly pointless adding features that no one will use also bumping up production!

Also Blitzway for the past 4 days have posted the same thing over and over

 

[OzzyAndyHam]

March 20 6PM PST looks to be the full reveal and hopefully preorder.

 

[Joe The Collector]

10 more days of teasing

 

[Bleah]

I have an idea for a collaboration:

JND x Blitzway 1/6 strip tease joint

‘The Blue Ball’

Latest DeLorean update.. it has a functioning turn signal lever with noises..

Seriously not sure what Blitzway is thinking here. I mean some of these features are a cool novelty, but are in no way necessary and who actually is going to use stuff like the blinkers or rolling down the window?

 

[Hologram AI]

These are all **** that people will try once and then never touch again. I mean seriously, who the **** is using the turn signal blinker on this?

What a waste of resources just to jack the price up on this thing.

What’s our guesses on the price for this

 

[Hoody999]

What’s our guesses on the price for this

Expensive ! $1499+

 

[shadows]

Expensive ! $1499+

I would entertain it at that price, above 2,000 then I’m out.

Found this info on Blitzway's Facebook page;
Blitzway Headlights & Taillights are apparently inaccurate, similar to Hot Toys. Disappointing.

Seemingly the Headlights should be a warm white color temperature with the inner 'full-beam' lamps be brighter than the outer lamps. Probably should have the option to activate inner/outer lamps separately too.

Rear Tail-lights are as inaccurate like the Hot Toys version, showing the reverse lamp, brake lights & parking light all illuminated together!
The flashing turn-signal (which is cool but unnecessary) is also inaccurately illuminating the whole amber cluster - instead of just the inner part, which would be accurate to a real DeLorean.

of course they're innacurate. Blitzway's too busy dumping resources on gimmicks than creating a faithful representation.

And WHY is it the part II vehicle? I'm still not over that, especially when they initially advertised it as Part I (or rather heavily implied it).

Is Blitzway known to make improved changes? That’s the real question. If it’s a 2 in 1 from BTTF1 and 2, that’s great.

I don't know if Blitzway would fix the inaccuracies.
I'm just disappointed because we know this will be a vastly expensive piece but they cannot even fix the fundamental issues that the Hot Toys DeLorean has had for over 10 years - before adding the over elaborate 'power-windows' & 'flashing turn-signal' features.

I hope Blitzway do re-visit the accuracy before release, but I suspect as is usual with 1/6 manufacturers, they'll release it as is....and let the collectors sort any fixes themselves.
