Received my Biff. For $150 I am happy with it. Need Griff and Bufford now.

Was it only $150? I don’t remember what I paid. Wasn’t there a deposit also? I’m still trying to decide if I pay it off. Please post any photos you might have of it displayed. Thanks.
Tbf you cant go wrong wirh this set. You get 3 clothing sets complete with shoes etc., a few accessories, a body and 3 headsculpts. The sculpts may not be perfect, but a decent placeholder. There won’t be any better Biff (unless Mars does a second one). Who knows, maybe Mars offers a Griff or Buford with an upgraded extra headsculpt for this one.

Very cool! It’s not perfect but gets the job done

The clothes give the impression as to who it's suppose to be. The sculpt definitely does not look like Biff. The proto was off, but better than production.
Was tempted to get this prior to production. Now, what has me worried is how the stuff I have on pre-order will be affected.

Why did Mars Toys do this?
The prototype was absolutely fine. This looks horrible.
Was hoping it was just bad initial pics. Sadly it doesn't seem like the case this time.
With a different sculpt, no lighting or nice photography is gonna change that.
Glad i didn't order an extra body. The angry HS looks salvageable. might need to paint the hair lighter. Probably the worst Mars Toys figure in my collection.

The food is awful, but such big portions!Tbf you cant go wrong wirh this set. You get 3 clothing sets complete with shoes etc., a few accessories, a body and 3 headsculpts.

Not really adding anything.
The headsculpts are bad and nothing more than a placeholder. The clothes however look great. If you want a Biff, this set is your best chance to get it started. The price for 3 clothing sets, a body and accessories ist still very solid.
Of course I wished the sculpts were better, to not have to go the long way, but it is what it is.

Hmm, one of these things does not look like the other..
This is so weird… I lean look at this… the sculpt has been good.

Maybe if I boil it and squish it down...
I find the expressions heads fine... The stoic is the most important...
They bombed it...I am good with Mars
Here’s a good shot by member Stepan Shepard Drastak on the onesixthkit page on Facebook.
“Biff arrived… and he hates manure”

Probably going to go for that really expresive sculpt to, as none of them are
particularly accurate, so I might as well go for the extreme expression.

I got this figure in today. I personally really enjoy it. I think it looks about as accurate to the actor as the HT Marty looks to MJF (not well but identifiable).

Its almost like they would get in trouble for making it look too much like Thomas Wilson, and they had to change it on purpose. Hope this trend doesn't continue with their Doc and Marty.
Well i guess Mars Toys didn't lie to us if this is a generic school badass they succeeded.

I have to say I think the tailoring on that jacket looks terrific! Like a high grade custom with the stitching. Also, I don't think the sculpt is really that bad, I've seen worse likenesses repeated over and over again in figure form, such as Mel Gibson as Max.

Man, those headsculpts dropped dramatically from the proto. I got mine yesterday but have yet to open.
