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

[Rondesmo]

Yeah, me too, as a 89 hardcore fan, the idea of getting the Jazz Batwing wen through my mind but I realize that it was still just a completist behavior to fill in the gap.
It’s a wonderful piece but way too big and expensive. And I’m sure due to the size, It might cannibalize all the rest of your collection, making all the rest tiny.
The Batmobile is THE vehicle of the movie. It is powerful, menacing and sexy. Almost the 3rd character of the movie.
The Batwing is super cool, but doesn’t have the presence of the Batmobile IMO.
And if you have ordered the Batwing, you would told yourself:
« hey i ordered the Batwing from Jazzinc, I can’t stay with the HT Batmobile now, I need the car from him too… »
It’s endless…
The Joost’s Batmobile is already the pinnacle of any 89 lover ‘s collection.
The Batwing is the extra ice on the cake if you really have money and space.

Sheesh, makes me really pray Joost comes swooping in with their own DeLorean.

I just canceled.

 

[shells075]

Im getting real close to cancelling to.

Ugh, I just picked up Marty and Doc recently mostly as the supporting cast to this Delorean, but now I'm scared off of ordering. Not good.

This thread legit scared me off from ordering the BTTF2 car. Just far too much to worry about on such a large piece.

Has anyone not had issues with theirs?

 

[Tacticaljackal]

Mine is flawless. I love it!

What sucks is that each replacement is yet another gamble of either another problem or a worst problem. I feel like we’re all just guinea pigs of a social experiment to see how much “fault” we can accept from an expensive product that we really want.

Problem is a lot of people will happily accept these faults. They’ll carefully pull out all 4 wheels and say “mine is ok”, fully knowing that the mechanism is defective and will eventually break with use.

Saw this today on FB…
Just unacceptable for the price…

For me, no other explanation that they changed factory.

Wow, bet danoby2 wishes he didn’t knock Jazzinc buyers for questioning his quality after seeing what hot toys has dished up here….

 

[a-dev]

Ah jaysus. Easy pass at this point. Unless they do a product-recall to at least fix the wheel issue I will no longer even consider this.

Nah the same happened to me when I ordered Part 1 many years ago. I wouldn’t put a loose seat down to different factory.

 

[pixletwin]

Seeing those pics on facebook is what was the deciding factor for me. So disappointed. I wanted this so badly.

 

[Zeke]

Yeah, cancelled mine as well. Disappointing, but seem to be a lot of issues with this. Don't have the time or desire to go over a piece with a fine tooth comb to identify any damage, malfunctioning parts and then have to repackage and ship back.
For $800+, this should be a premium, well designed piece...seems more like an afterthought, lazy money grab

 

[Rondesmo]

For 800 $ + it should be perfection.

Mine too!

Mine arrived today. After 1/4 Darkseid and Justice Mobile, I was expecting a bigger box. So far so good. Haven't tried the wheels yet but they certainly aren't broken out of the box. Seats, panels and bodywork seem perfect.

You have to pull them out and hover convert them to see if they are broken.
