    The Delorean sits absolutely perfectly next to my Creator Expert cars: the Aston Martin DB5, Porsche 911 Turbo, Ferrari F40 and Ford Mustang GT, in fact the Delorean is almost EXACTLY the same length as the latter. And everyone knows that Creator Expert scale is the best scale :)

    The Delorean in real life is somewhat small, so if you're someone who thinks that the Lego set is also kinda small, I don't blame you. Personally I think the set is a great size.

  • @shadowcaptaincain
    @shadowcaptaincain 2 роки тому +44

    I think the scale is perfect. They were able to include all of the unique details and characteristics of the vehicle from all three movies, and don't really seem to have sacrificed anything due to it's smaller size. Even if they did increase the scale, I can't imagine how much more they could truly add to it, and it would likely just end up being a lot of wasted space on the vehicle itself. Plus in reality, the DeLorean itself was not a big vehicle, it had a compact sports design that was common in that era of sports cars.

    For the movie cars, the Aston Martin & Ecto-1 are about 13.5:1, the DeLorean is 12.2:1. To scale with the first 2 the DMC should be shorter. I think it has a great look though.

    If you look up the lengths of the real cars, the T1 camper van and DeLorean are almost identical, the DB5 is about 30cm longer - it seems the scale isn't too far out. I would have loved something larger, but I think this is still pretty good. Still a day 1 purchase :)

  • @beastcity9651
    @beastcity9651 Рік тому

    The Batmobile is huge because Batman needs places for all that additional bat-gear. Ecto-1 is big because the ghostbusters need that extra room for their proton packs, traps and other ghostbusting equipment. The DeLorean Time Machine is the right size for the only thing it needs to do: travel through time :-)

    Actually the Delorean Set and the Ecto-1 are pretty much the same scale. Ecto-1 is 637.54 cm long in Reallife and the Delorean is 426.72 cm long (The Back to the Future Version is a little longer, cuz of the "exhausts"). So the Ecto-1 is 1,3 (Movie) - 1,5 (Normal) times longer than the Delorean in Reallife which pretty much is the same in the lego models (47cm Ecto-1 and 35cm Delorean). I think they did an awesome job with both cars.

    Just recently rewatched the first back to the future film, and I realized the Kombi that appears there looks the same one as the Lego t2 camper van. No I do not know if this was coincidence or planned before releasing the DeLorean set. So I find the scale with the camper van and the DeLorean making sense. I do not think it would make sense for the DeLorean scale to be on par with the ECTO-1 as hearses are quite long. So I am glad it is slightly bigger than the Db5. Makes it easier to display whenever I buy it later in the future. Does go well with the Db5.

    I’m honestly shocked by how many people think the size is on point. I think they have missed the ball with this totally. Whilst it looks great, the thing is half the size of the batmobile. It’s nearly half the size of ecto1 but almost the same price. £150 is shocking for this. I would have paid more for a bigger version of this. It looks like a child’s set, not a premium set we’ve all been waiting for. I’m very disappointed. Gutted in fact. I’ll not be buying that at all for £150. It will look stupid next to my ecto1 and batmobile. It will look like one of the kids has stuck their little build next to my display pieces.

    Yes it is to small. Finally someone seeing that. It should be 1/2 larger then this. It is DELOREAN. Doors are terrible. Missing so much more details. I am older genereation who love so much BTTF and i would paid much more for delorean like some SW sets. Delorean is like Millenium Falcon if i can compare with something. I cant understand Lego in some decisions they are making. Such a shame.

    I do think you're using the terms scale and size a little too random...
    The ecto-1 and delorean feel way more like the same scale, while the t2 van is more the same size..

    I personally don't think the DeLorean is small
