The primary problem is that it's not just tilting wheels. Everyone reading this will know that, of course. The old Aoshima model kit solved the problem incredibly elegantly with a sliding mechanism that moved all the wheels out from the body while tilting them at the same time, in the same way that they worked in the movie. The problem comes in when HT have to do that same thing. The Delorean is *heavy*. So it would have to have a stand and a remote for the wheels, and making that mechanism work, plus the inevitable returns they would get when some didn't work... This mechanism works for a 1/24 model kit, but the Hot Toys wouldn't be able to sit on it's wheels with a mechanism like that. It's too heavy.I was waiting on the tilting wheels version they never released!
So does this mean there is an event in November ?? Or was there any wording to it ??
Joost will never touch anything that treads on HT toes. He’s publicly stated he won’t ever do a Delorean.
Not questioning the engineering. Just that I did not purchase the first release due to this version being promoted.
Yeah. I wasn’t having a dog at you. Just saying.
Would need Einstein as well 100%.
Haha yeah, and maybe some new keyrings I saw on FB......wow !!
Still no Hot Toys C-3PO. . .to me that speaks volumes about the nonsensical approach HT has to these lines. Unless you want an Iron Man or Star Wars clone, nothing is guaranteed.
