Hot Toys - Back to the Future - 1/6 DeLorean Time Machine

[sirdoctor]

HT aint gonna fix them wheels. Theyve had years to sort them and havent. Its a cash grab/license retain. If the reason was because of demand, then this thing would have been released a year or 2 after the Pt1 version. Give it another 7yrs and you may just see the Pt3 version go up for pre order

I still hold on Marty V2 since it was only available on Japan or Sideshow...but already PO Doc 1985 deluxe... I hope there's an official announcement on the BTTF franchise soon this year so i know what to do next... Yes, BTTF and Supes are my thing too... A Reeve (Clark and Supes) and Cavill from MOS from Inart or QS in the form of statue would be gold... those two are long overdue to be upgraded from their latest release.

We're a match! Reeve and Cavill are it for me (the latter I prefer in the black suit to make his Supes feel unique.)

Did you get the 1/3 Cavill Prime 1 statue? Absolutely incredible. Only place I can see it's available now is CosmisChase. It's so lifelike I feel like he's going to start chatting to me through the screen. Anyway, I grabbed one.

I got Marty V2 from ToysWonderland because they seem to get every Asian exclusive. I got him the moment the first batch went out quite a while ago now. I recommend using them if something's hard to find.

Yeah, they can always bring the blue and black suit variation to brought more customer although my favorite Cavill suit is his MOS version.

I haven't enter a 1/3 scale and my only statue of Cavill is the old controversial Premium Format which has a great costume but a mediocre paintjob and weird poses and made of PVC. I hope QS made a 1:6 and a 1:3 scale with Reeve and Cavill, they deserved to be immortalized with a great company.

Yeah, but Toyswonderland price is higher even than that Sideshow and Sideshow still got their stock so I probably will pruchase from them... I was thinking that QS will deliver the DeLorean news on the Back to The Future day on october. One can hope for such a good news!

Shameless plug to any fellow local Freaks from BC. I will be at a Toy show Sunday, April 3rd in Pitt Meadows, BC

I will be offering the un-displayed V1 Delorean for local sale

(and the Blitzway Ghostbuster special 4 pack for local sale+ lots of other HT and 1:6 goodies...)

It is clear that the position of the wheels of the Delorean Part 2 is an error. Just like the scales with your Marty and Doc figures, they don't fit properly. We will be attentive if at least the one with the wheels is solved, if Queen Studio offers us a better product I will have to assess if my preorder is canceled.
It is necessary to differentiate in offering improvements and additions that improve the figures.
For Hot toys to start improving, you can start by stopping making mistakes and then focus on improving.

What's the problem with the wheels? I honestly don't see it.

I wish they'd make Jennifer Parker...

In the movie, there's a mechanism for the wheels moving from driving mode to flying mode. The pivot point is right in the centre of the hub, right behind where the brake disc would be on a normal car(But seems missing from flying cars, perhaps as they have some new, future tech to replace the brake discs and pads). What i means is that the boom that holds the wheels moves outwards from the car and the wheels tuck under, so they don't hang down. In the movie, the main body of the car would touch the ground before the wheels would as, when the fold down, they are now horizontal and have far less height than they did when vertical.
Here's what the movie car looks like:

And here's what the HT one looks like:

You see the problem now?

I’d enjoy my inaccurate collectibles so much more if I wasn’t on this site all the time…

HT really should fix this. We just need InArt to put a teaser out of their DeLorean first to prompt HT into making an iota of effort.

 

[Galacticat]

Oh dang. Yes. I see it.

Yeah

 

[pophoody]

I’s not stopping me get it but it would be great if they fixed the wheels yes.

 

[MTL79]

They fixed The Batman already, why can't they fix this? they will simply need to remold the floor of the existing model. The 1:18 scale time machines can do it, why can't Hot Toys?

We have a thread for the Part II Delorean

I’ve tried searching with no results. Are there any tutorials for disassembling the DeLorean? I am so distraught, I accidentally fried the lights in mine. I checked the output on my AC adapter and verified it was set to 4.5 volts and totally missed the small arrow that points to 12 volts also. A minute later and a burning smell and it was all over. I’m hoping it was just a resistor that I can replace but I can’t figure out how to get it apart.

Not sure but I’m following I had the same issue with my Batmobile tumbler good news is that it can be rewired just will take a bit of steps.

I seem to recall someone here posting pics of the disassembled car in the DeLorean modification thread, but it's been awhile so I may be remembering wrong.

 

[Warpig]

Thanks, I was able to locate this thread with some details. If anyone has any other insights, I would be appreciative!

[sirdoctor]

Thats the thread. Basically its not really designed to be taken apart. Obviously it can, but has to be done in a certain order. I would advise against it. IIRC the guy who dismantled his broke something along the way. Its been a few years since ive been in that thread

Anyone know where I can get some flame trails for the Delorean? I saw one on Etsy, though I was not really liking the look of it.

Have you tried gasoline?
