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

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

whats the price is your opinion on SS

I'm just guessing but Sideshow price will probably be $800-$900. Nice to see some lights added underneath and to the back vents but unfortunately looks like the neon blue banding lights on the side are absent and will have to be modded in.

Looks like they added more LEDs on the wheels and bottom.
Does the time panel also illuminated? or am I seeing things?

Time panel looks like a sticker same as the V1 which is unfortunate. Would have been really nice if that was upgraded.

I don't think the time circuits will light up unfortunately. It just looks like a clever lighting effect on the promo pics, I remember the same happening with the first version. I really hope they sort out the spelling mistake on the time circuits for this one! It's so annoying to have such a detailed car with such a silly mistake.

I'm still excited to get this though.

Can't wait for the part 3 car in 2028!

The Delorean in the pics is an old car. I can see the discoloration on it. Hopefully they will sort that issue for this release.

I didnt order the first delorean because this one was teased back in the day. I am beyond stoked that this is finally coming.

Holy ****! Instant pre-order!
But they really need to fix the position of the wheels in the flying mode.

I heard the HK local price will be HK$5200 (= USD667?)
So it's actually cheaper than the first Delorean (That was $689.99 back in 2014)

Yep looks like the HK prices are about $700-750 incl. shipping. So they haven't increased the cost significantly which is great !!

Need to comment on their FB page to communicate these things to them. Going by previous re-releases it's a 1:1 copy mistakes and all. At least this is a "new" version, so they should make these small changes.

Really hope the time panel does lightup and spelling is corrected.

edit : i see many comments about the above points which is excellent. Maybe it is early enough for them to include as accessories ?

 

[Hoody999]

any estimate time for preorder on sideshow friends?

Usually later same day. Timing for the vehicle seems to be Q2-3 2023.

Can anyone in the UK recommend a trusted UK seller to pre-order this with? The last time I brought a 1/6 vechicle I used Toy HQ but they've long since gone bust. I'm not sure if thegoodthebadtherobot stock vechicles (I think they just do figures) so I'd appreciate any recommendations.

ComicsandCocktails still have the Batman Tumbler for PO at a pretty decent price and Collectibles Direct tend to get larger items in so I may try to get this domestically instead of from my usual, KGHobby.
The shipping cost will likely be immense. Never bought anything this big from overseas.

Oh, also- holy crap!! Can’t believe I’m actually going to get this! Time to start purging some unappreciated figures to make room and money.

Can owners of the 1.0 point out any notable changes/improvements they might be able to detect?

It would be cool if at the very least, for those who missed out on the first version, someone could offer a custom aftermarket reactor conversion kit (maybe 3D printed) to replace the Mr Fusion parts. Especially if they have the first Hot Toys release for reference.

It would be great that Hot Toys fix the wheels... but my hope is 0%.

Yes. They are way too low. Looks so wrong...

Would it actually be cheaper with the shipping from Sideshow despite the import tax than ordering from HK?

Joost posted a video saying they were in talks with Universal to make the BTTF3 DeLeorean and things were going well but now Hot Toys has coincidentally put up a DeLoreon for PO so they wont be doing it anymore.

Crap I may need to get this. I passed on the first, but don’t want to miss out again.
