    Just like I did with the mark 2….I ordered a couple hundred dollars worth of mods from Mike lane mods….I’m sure I’ll send the small hub caps out to full metal customs to get a bigger accurate size. So after about $400 in extras it will look better. Also be changing out the wiring around the car to the correct colors. It’s fun to work on, fun project but this is how hot toys does it. Short cuts and a lot of “good enough”. You can’t do a “ultimate edition” because of licensing and how it works. Each car is a different license, different movie. Unfortunately doesn’t work that easy in license land

      @ eaglemoss? I’ve heard of them but I’m talking about the hot toys delorean….Mike lane mods makes upgrades for a lot of that car….after buying those it’s $200-300….then I’m feeling better about the car. Still haven’t found a solution to the wrong color headlights. A customizer will make me new hub caps but that will be expensive…to be happy it’s $400 plus increase in cost after mods and upgrades

    I’m confused why people expect the mark 2 or 3 to be any different than the first one it’s literally the same car in all 3 movies or suppose to be the same car so why would they change a bunch of it doesn’t make any sense

    Glad I didn't buy this one. People spending hundreds more dollars for upgrades and mods on a piece that cost $1,000 to begin with makes no sense at all. You shouldn't have to do that. I learned my lesson after buying the version 2. Giving Hot Toys more money for this just encourages them to not improve.

      I concur. I feel in love with the DeLorean before the movie. People have gifted me various things DeLorean related, but they are BTTF themed. While I do love the movies, I do not like the detraction from the actual vehicle.

    • @DeLoreanTECH
      @DeLoreanTECH  Місяць тому +2

      That would be amazing. Some folks have actually altered their 1/6 scale Hot Toys so it is back to a stock DeLorean. Lots of filler, paint, and custom 3D printed pieces like the rear and side glass and sunshade. But alas nothing formal planned for a big scale stock DeLorean model!

      Check out my comparison video where I explained why they did not choose to go with an ultimate edition. They want the cars to stand on their own. Hot toys was heading in this direction as well, but unfortunately missed the mark.

I'm not going to defend Hot Toys vehicles as they tend to be terrible and terribly overpriced, but if you don't have the model yourself, in hand, watching someone else unboxing it and making judgements on finish and paint detail without being able to actually see it, well, that's just lame.
