You think the figure signed would be worth more than the delorean signed?

Why are you concerned with worth? Shouldn't it be about the experience? If it's nothing but sales value to you then none of the above as there are companies that will get you his autograph for a small fee (Officialpix) so you wouldn't get more than what you paid probably (I'd imagine less as there would be doubt). As for toy pieces value, it would probably be less than unsigned, most 1/6 collectors aren't looking for signed stuff as it limits the resell value down the road to only people that want a signature and in today's market, unless it comes from a professional company or trusted individual, signatures are met with a large amount of skepticism as fakes are rampant on the net.

So to sum it up, if you are in it for the experience then go for it...if you are in it for resell than pass as I doubt the value will be there for you and could reduce the value of the piece

If I get it signed and take a picture while he is signing and if he signs somewhere discreet like under the hood. There is no way that it can depreciate in value. And I’m just trying to see if it’s worth I never sell my collectibles anyway

It's worth what someone will pay for it and you will not know what that is unless you sell it. It's not going to be worth twice as much or something. crazy. It could be more it could be less. I personally would pass on any modified piece and that includes autographs unless it's a a really good deal.

Probably. It’s a figure of his character.

It’d have more value to me, at least. A signed DeLorean wouldn’t really have much value to me. No more than the price of an unsigned one at least. Autographs can actually sometimes lower the value of a piece. They don’t always automatically make an item worth more.

Though if you want to get it signed because you feel you can turn it for a profit, by all means go for it. Worst case scenario, you’ll have a cool signed HT DeLorean for yourself. It just wouldn’t make it worth more to me if I were to buy it.

It's worth what someone will pay for it

Mmh... I would always prefer a classic 8x10 framed next to a figure/car. In fact this is what I wanted to do, but I missed the timeframe at officalpix for the MJF signing.

Is there a thread for the 2018 delorean from sideshow ?

Ummmmm, what 2018 Delorean from Sideshow? If you mean the Kids Logic Hover one the have for order, then probably somewhere buried in a different forum where they discuss the Welly, Diamond and Hot Wheels versions as it scales with them.

 

[sirdoctor]

Or do you mean the one by eaglemoss which is a partworks subscription magazine/model? Its 1/8th scale, mostly die cast and you build it yourselves over 130 issues. Here is mine. Im further along as all the body panels have been added since I took the picture.

Very cool. Congrats!

 

[SilverStar17]

Nice! I’d keep it if I were you.

 

[Rambler]

That’s awesome. Agreed with his security. I hope you got the signatures authenticated. At least Michael’s. Two years ago I had Fox, Lloyd, and Lea Thompson sign my OUTATIME license plate. I had Tom Wilson sign it last year. I’m still working on putting together a shadow box display for it.

 

[batfan1991]

What more authentication do you need than the photo I have tickets and all

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

That is really cool, Christopher signature is really nice and neat. What did they say about the Delorean?

 

[highlander1]

That's beyond epic! Batfan very cool congrats!

That’s very cool! A day to remember for sure.

 

[Otomofan]

Oh lord, you're a nut!! I thought you were going to take the hood piece, separate, and have them sign the underside of that.

You took the whole damn car!!

I think it's awesome though...it's not on the outside, so it doesn't obstruct it's display value, but you pop the hood and holy crap, this baby's been signed by Doc and Marty!!

Very, very cool!

(oh....and am I going to hell for noticing that MJF's signature is a hell of a lot neater than I expected it to be?)

To be honest I thought the same
