Mars Toys Back to the Future 1/6 Figures

[shells075]

All we can hope is a new Biff sculpt is produced. This release feels like a big-let down because of the likeness issues. Hot Toys BTTF Doc Part I was a big let-down because we got a re-used sculpt, thankfully OSK came through with their own Doc sculpt so hopefully something similar can happen here.
Again as others have said not sure what happened to the Biff sculpt we saw in the proto? That looked a lot better then what we actually got. So im not sure how they screwed that up?

The new Doc sculpt made me like this figure loads more.

Just realized that even the main costume is wrong. Biff wore the grey pants at the parking lot scene at the Enchantement evening. He wore a black suit shirt with color and black buttons, not a black tshirt. The tie is also nothing I like. I will most likely print my own one.

Got any reference shots for a collared shirt?
I was surprised to see a t-shirt on the Mars set but figured that was something Biff would do by just throwing a tie on top.
I can’t find any shots where it’s obviously not a t-shirt so it doesn’t bother me.

I echo the general consensus that the sculpts are all poor and I’m not happy and the generic hand choices either.
No dedicated Oo La La/Almanac holding hands is a shame.
Those ankles are absolutely dreadful as well. The shoes barely stay on and, if you go for a dynamic pose, Biff ends up looking completely unnaturally since there’s a bend half way up his shin.

The whole thing screams half-assed and is like a giant leap back for third party products just when we thought they were upping their game to the point of contending with the big bois.

(Luckily the HT BTTF figures all have crummy sculpts as well so this isn’t as overtly awful as it could have otherwise appeared.)

He is right. It isn’t a t-shirt. It’s like a black button up shirt.

Thanks for posting that pic. Admitted, it is not that visible anyway, but it would habe been nice to go the accurate route.
Problem is, I really don’t know of any black collar shirt that will fit this heavily padded body…

If you're determined to use a black button-up shirt, you could just cut the arms off and make slits in the back so it closes properly around the front.

I allready noticed the tie colour but didnt want to mention it. Didnt notice the undershirt though.

Got Biff yesterday and looked at it a bit before leaving for my in-laws. I think it’s just okay.

Definitely not great and not up to the level of previous Mars releases I own/have seen, but also could be a lot worse.

At the end of the day Mars is still third party so can still have some misses. I’m a bit forgiving because of the fairly low price point.

For me he’s still a good stand in version of the character but if any upgrade options are made available I’d consider them.

Spend hours of searching for a good alternative headsculpt for Biff without any luck. Anybody in the know of anything?

Seein what Trevor did for Neca really makes me wish he would offer his 2ups for the 1/6 world…
