Thank you!
Beware though, the OP has been unresponsive recently and it looks like a number of people are still waiting on undelivered items from him.

And thank you, too! Looks like it's a dead project to me also. I'd love to get one but not quite enough to spend $190. I bet it's a lot of work making an accurate, nice looking 1/6 guitar by hand though.
 
The crow guitar vs the marty guitar are different. Slight body shape difference...the crow guitar has a Floyd rose bridge Ibanez fin style head stock, metal volume and tone knobs...marty has a standard fender style bridge/trem fender style headstock and body (it is an Ibanez guitar) in the 80s Ibanez was still copying Gibson and fender..the crow has a 90s Ibanez...either way it's not 1950s Gibson hollow body so it's ehhh anyway

Surprising, as Fan has always seemed like a decent guy and I bought some custom newspapers from The Dark Knight from him. I wanted that yellow guitar but the asking price was too much for me.
 
I need Clint Eastwood!

Pic's look great ,hopefully this means sideshow will have hopefully in may or very soon. Cant wait stoked even more to start paying off my delorean.
 
2015 Marty would be my Grail from this franchise. And Doc of course
I'm actually more interested in the Clint Eastwood version of Marty if it ever gets made. The 2015 version while cool would be a lot like the 1985 version and the main differences would be the jacket and shoes and hoverboard.
 
I'm a little disappointed in the final head sculpt but all in all everything looks good. Like someone already mentioned, HT messed up the hair from the proto.
 
Hot Toys did a remarkable job. The expression is movie accurate for those who don't like it.. People are so quick to critique every little thing that they actually forget Hot Toys uses actual shots from the movie to make these things.




Yeah I can see that's the slightly confused/concerned expression they were going for (and it's probably a good one to choose for a Marty figure), but the problem is they didn't really follow through all the way on it. They got the open mouth right, but not the eyebrows and crinkled forehead. So as a result the expression just doesn't make quite as much sense as it should.

That said though, I still think it's a pretty cool looking figure overall.

I'd take any and all Marty's being made, although I'd want the 2015 a little more, it'd be awesome to see if they made the shoes light up. The color changing hat would also be pretty sweet. I wonder what other accessories they'd include though, futuristic Pepsi bottle, Almanac, maybe USA Today showing Griff being arrested. If they wanted to do it big they could include the leather jacket/hat/shoes & walkie talkie when he goes back to 1955, as the t-shirt and jeans would be the same.
 
I just hope that if HT continues to make different Marty figures, they'll make different head sculpts. I don't wanna see the same look on every figure.
 
I think the sculpt looks good. He made a confused/bewildered face throughout the movie. Hot Toys gets criticized for always making blank or generic sculpts so I'm glad they took a chance and gave him an expressive look that suits the character.
