Hot Toys – MMS257 – Back to the Future: 1/6th scale Marty McFly Collectible Figure

[PopCollector]

Yes.
I do the mods, and my Brother Stewart does reviews.
The one with the battery pack sticking out the back is far easier to service, due to the battery being accessible.
The other one required a donor HT IM helmeted head lighting system, and needed the whole thing taken apart each time you needed to replace the batteries due to the batteries being internal.

Awesome man, good to see ya on this forum, your customs are amazing I'm not a superman fan, and cant get a reeves anymore came back to this hobby a little too late, but appreciate your hard work man.

Unfortunately I've decided to cancel my order for the Ex. Hope a fellow freak who was on the waitlist gets it.

I'd love to see the final piece but too rich for my blood. Especially for something I probably wouldn't display him with too often.

Hoping my 08/21 EX. Waitlist converts!! Early August was the last I saw a conversion for.....

 

[Rambler]

I'm positive it will. There is a lot of time until this releases.

There was a conversion mentioned in the Discount Code/Spooktacular thread on 10/31. Should be a good chance, good luck!

Denied... got on list 9/5.


Hello Collector,

I would hate for you to walk away empty handed. What I can do is offer you a pretty sweet deal on the Regular Marty McFly Sixth Scale Figure, that is still available.

I got the same message for Starlord EX

 

[Texas Finest]

I got the same message as well. I got on the wait list 8/5/14. Dont understand why they would send a notice out so far out in advance. Hes not scheduled to be released until March so chancing are more people might cancel. You never know. I did order the reg same day just incase

 

[Darth Madden]

Yeah, I thought it was kind of early as well.... could be a ploy to get the reg to sell? I did order the reg today just in case.

I wouldn't worry about Marty selling out. Even if he does, HT will make a Marty/Doc 2-pack.

was planning on getting a second Marty for my brother, but only getting him the regular version as the EX is sold out, should I get on the wait list or get the regular? I don't think he cares either way though.

 

[evenflow]

Got the same message for the die cast iron man. Seems so early to send out cancellations.

 

[Rambler]

I'm positive it will. There is a lot of time until this releases.

Well I stand corrected. Sorry guys.

 

[Sidewinder]

Both my waitlists for this and Starlord are cancelled. Kind of pointless going on them now seeing as that's 3 out of 4 for me that haven't converted.
So what happens to the exclusives that people don't end up buying when then this is ready to ship?

Contest prizes or mid-day email saying we have 10 of these get 'em while you can.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Very, very weak, Sideshow, canceling the exclusive WL so soon.

Same here... although mine were for the Mark III and Star Lord. I think it's premature, especially on the non-deposit figures. I think we'll see these available once they start shipping.

My guess is this is a ploy to try and increase the sales of the regular editions.

 

[HAL9000.]

I got the same message here in the UK. Shame, really wanted the exclusive. I've now ordered standard version from a UK retailer.

I pre-ordered the Delorean, not reading it properly, thinking it was out March 2015 too. How wrong was I?! Ha! Oh, well - Marty will have to do without the time machine for a while.

 

[OSCORP]

I may cancel my ex, be on the lookout kiddies.
