This set has 1872 pieces. It would have been great if they had somehow included 13 more pieces to make it 1885 (the year Marty and Doc go back to in the third movie). They did that with the Saturn V, matching the year 1969.
Plus it might mean we can have all the configurations available without the dismantling of certain aspects Like I hate the fact you have to dismantling key parts like Mr fusion and the lightning converters Also the replacement wheels don’t have any rubber
There’s a quick mod that helps the small windows on the doors, just swap the cheese slopes out for a flat plate. I thought it helps the proportions a lot.
I had the same problem with the doors not staying open, but as time passed I realized the doors getting stiffer in a way and now they stay open on their own. I guess it just takes time :)
Personally I really really love this set, was thinking about getting it a while ago but instead decided to keep my money for the time being. This video has made me re consider and makes me want to rush out to my nearest lego store... In which I can't Because its midnight, but oh well. Great video as always you're videos are very entertaining to watch and to listen to.
you can make the door stay open by putting a 1x4 plate just under the dor hinge. it's super easy to do, it works well for display and if you want you just have to press down on the door and the plate pops out
Yeah the gullwing is the only disappointment of the model. It's much better than the original Lego model. I am thinking of implementing the popular door fix and adding in the flag element and make it hover on a stand. This is one of the sets I've been looking for for a long time and I'm glad it finally exists. Love the review!
*Series idea for Tiago:* (day 3) Tiago should make a subreddit where people can post Mocs that he reviews and gives feedback monthly/weekly. It’s going to be good for both the fans who are looking to improve and will probably take Tiago less time to make.
Brickvault already does this. There are enough sites and platforms to show your MOC’s and a subreddit specifically made by Tiago would only narrow down the amount of MOC’s.
@@doursen I’ve watched Brickvault’s latest video and that’s not exactly what I meant. What they do is just showcasing Mocs from the internet and not giving feedback. The idea behind this series idea is that the UA-camr would review and say ways to improve the build. I thought Tiago would be the best for this series because he already does reviews and used to be a Lego designer.
I built this model just last week, and loved it. However, I didn’t like the huge amount of off color scheme pieces, so swapped out these for more appropriate colours in black, dark grey and light bluish grey. Looks much nicer in my opinion.
My only issues are the doors(which you covered), changing the license plate was way too difficult since you have to disassemble the the entire back end, and not having separate tires for the different wheels which makes changing the wheels out a lot more annoying. Other than that it's a fantastic set. Edit to add that I want to make a train to put behind it. That would be awesome but difficult considering the size and I don't have random pieces to build it with.
I just got this set for Christmas, haven't had time to build it yet; this weekend hopefully I will. I've watched many reviews, but I always enjoy your videos. I think what helps is your insight into the design process and the thinking behind various decisions the design teams had to make. Thank you for all your efforts and I wish you a very prosperous and healthy new year.
The falling doors is totally a feature, not a bug. Irl, the delorean had issues with the doors falling due to inadequate parts to hold up the heavy ass doors. Some old lady actually got her leg smashed by one of them.
I’d say it’s definitely pretty perfect. Wish the doors could stay up by themselves. I found a way to do it though with a few clear parts. One of the few sets I bought this year. Had to get it to go with my Ideas set. And pretty great value for the retail price.
I also reviewed this and it’s one of my favourites. But I’ve looked at multiple reviews and I can definitely say that the drivers door falls quicker and faster. I am not sure why, but if you want to take photos then go to the passenger side.👌😉
Not happy about this being 240 in Canada now but it is still a fantastic set with spectacular features and details. Flight conversion is brilliant and non obtrusive or compromising to the interior of the car, and really like the additional parts included to build one of 3 variations. Second with Mr Fusion will always be my favorite of the three,
I just rebuilt this set over the weekend. My biggest complaint about it is the diagonal steel plate that connects to the side-rear bumper. it doesn't line up with the flow and just looks weird.
funny movie easter egge the hydraulic door slide down is actually accurate during a behind the scene interview. the director mention , while filming back to the future coz of the cold weather the hydraulic door would slide down. n between takes the PA need to run on set w a hair dryer or some kind of heat up the hydraulic pump shaft to keep it warm so it keep the door up.
I wish they had molded the flux capacitor with transparent tubes and an opaque backdrop, so the actual tubes would light up... that seems like such a strange choice
I just built this (it's lovely, by the way) and I don't know if anyone caught this or knows why, but even though the "DMC" logo is printed on one of the "grill bricks"... the name "Delorean" doesn't actually appear ANYWHERE. Not on the box. Not in the instruction manual. No where. They always refer to it as "the Time Machine", or "the car", or "Car A/B/C". They NEVER actually say "Delorean".
Imagine the price increase for that.. not sure if that would be worth it, or turn it into a ridiculously overpriced thing, seeing how hulkbuster is doing with all its goldbricks
@@maxi8664 that is absolutely true. At least for me. I cant count how many times i watched those old back to the future movies, marvel (and most other new) movies are a 1-use product to me.
I already have the older/smaller Delorean and the Micro Version from Dimensions, so thinking about getting this as well. I have Ecto 1 in both sizes as well. But what I dont like here is that this version has better figures and all, but it costs twice as much and has stickers. The smaller Delorean for half the price had no stickers. Meh. I dont like stickers in expensive models.
@@h2owl205 Stickers do peel off, so if you collect old LEGO there is a very huge price difference depending on how good the stickers still look. It is neither kid friendly nor collector friendly really.
@@h2owl205 also prints are a sign of quality. Even most of Legos competition prints everything on their bricks. Stickers are fine with cheaper city sets or other sets made mostly for children, but not for adult collectors sets that will never be taken apart anyway. Compared to other brick based toys, Lego is of the worst quality to price wise.
In every set available those are NOT rubber bands, there called O-rings! You can get them at any auto parts store or hardware store also O-rings are used for tattoo machines as well so the springs don't snap there reliability is far more useful than rubber bands....
4:36 the clear pieces under the DeLorian are meant to be removed. Apart from that I also wanted to say I love this set, I have it and I was lucky to buy it at the original price before the increase.
@@AnnDVine It holds it up while building the set, but after you finished it there Is a Page where it says to remove them. That Page Is easy to miss tho, so I think that Is the reason why Tiago left it.
I really want to build this model with my older brother. Thanks for the review, and small Lego Stickers are the worst. I rather walk Legos bare foot. XD
Thanks for reviewing this model! I went to the store a few weeks ago to get this, but they were out of stock. I ended up getting the Ghost Busters Ecto1 model instead. I notice you showed it in this video and am hoping you can review it as well. I think that it has the same shortfall that this model has with the dozens of stickers instead of printed bricks. It does have some cool building techniques and surprises, so I let it slide. What do you think?
this set is very good, and I went crazy looking for it, it's sold out everywhere but.... I found it here at the Lego Portugal store 😉 now in portuguese , continuação de um excelente e fantástico trabalho, sempre muito bem feito e pormenorizado 👍👍
So what are the major differences between part 1 and 2 because it seems the only difference is Mr.Fusion but do the pieces that are used for the plutonium area still just sitting there or do you need to take apart a few things?
This will be my first LEGO vehicle model I have ever owned, and I can't WAIT to build it!!! Are there any other LEGO vehicle models you recommend highly??
The Ford Mustang. It's been out for a few years already so it should be the first one to retire. Out of all of the vehicles I've built over the years it still remains as one of my favourites. The third best option would be the porsche 911!
this is a great model, the doors definitely could have been fixed so easily by the designers but they just didn't bother. but that's not my biggest issue with it funnily enough. my biggest issue is a dumb nitpick lol. the pole for the first movie version of the car that's supposed to channel the lightning, attaches in the WRONG PLACE. it's supposed to be way lower and farther back
I feel so fortunate that I was able to get this on release with my $50 off VIP coupon so I only spent $120. I also was able to get the Cuusoo version 21103 for $28 back in the day. Now they are proudly with each other as well as my other 80-90s movie sets with ET Dimensions, Goonies Dimensions, JP Velociraptor Chase & T-Rex Breakout. The Steven Spielberg section as you will. 😅
I got this set earlier today and am missing 2 of the 6 pieces on page 234. Spent an hour searching around where I was building and tracking to make sure if I could find someone I had accidentally used them. Could only find 10 that I had used and the index says 12 of that piece was included
Great scott! I went with the BttF 2 build as well. Kinda want to build another to have the version from the first movie, but maybe if it goes on sale, but then it’s been out of stock for so long maybe that won’t happen any time soon. 🎃
The model would look much better if they used metallic silver bricks instead of grey. Is there any limits on how many metallic bricks can be used in the set? Or how much price of the set would rise if metallic bricks was used?
It would for sure increase the price of the model. I don't think there's limits though, there's been a couple of sets with large amounts of metalic colored pieces like the infinity gauntlet, the latest UCS Hulkbuster and even some monkey kid giant mech
Sadly my set was missing a stone Grey 2x2 tile..thankfully I'm able to continue in the mean time while lego sends me a replacement because luckily the Ferrari 575 speed champions has 2 tiles, but in white.

Lol
I see what you did there
I see
Nerd 😋
@@ramonmendoza2510how
Don’t forget that a real delorean also often suffers from doors not staying open due to a too weak mechanism
Then it's more accurate than what I'd imagine!
Accurate to the movies as well!
Buy Lego parts 4459 !!
This set has 1872 pieces. It would have been great if they had somehow included 13 more pieces to make it 1885 (the year Marty and Doc go back to in the third movie).
They did that with the Saturn V, matching the year 1969.
Missed opportunity!
And to have it be more expensive? No thanks.
@@Movietuff i dont think 13 pieces would be alot of a difference.
@@lobbies8889haha, knowing Lego they’d charge an extra $20 for that 😂😂

I love this wheel-function
As a sneaker head I love the air mags
This set is probably my favorite ever 🤩
The doors don’t stay in place. Like the real car 😂
I just rebuilt this set over the weekend. My biggest complaint about it is the diagonal steel plate that connects to the side-rear bumper. it doesn't line up with the flow and just looks weird.
The minifigs are great in this set. Can’t wait to get this one but I do wish the car had steering, though I have no idea how that would be achieved.
I have it, I love it. One of my best builds so far. And yeah, the doors don't stay up. I thought I did some building wrong. Thanks for confirming :-)
Glad I could help!
They should have also included train wheels for the BTTF III version
Yeah they literally just made some train wheels for the Hogwarts Express that would be absolutely perfect, but who knows
Well if you flip movie one cars well it kinda resembles train wheels.
I just built mine and my doors stay up. It is a work of art.
Marty really should have had dual moulded legs so the gap where they can’t print isn’t so obvious
100% agree. If dual and even triple moulded legs are in minifigure bags then they should absolutely be giving us them in pricey sets like these
Tiago:
eggzagon shaped 0:51
Me thinks: Like this 🍳😂
I love your accent!

Next I want to see the Mad Max Pursuit Special.
I own this set and watching this video makes me want to rebuild it.
I'm happy to say with mine the doors stay up just fine. Sorry to see yours are loose.
I wish they had molded the flux capacitor with transparent tubes and an opaque backdrop, so the actual tubes would light up... that seems like such a strange choice
Yes I have been waiting for this one !!!
Erm...
The doors not saying open is a standard feature on every DeLorean, so that is actually more accurate than you might think.

One of my favorite Lego sets, after waiting for months for it to restock again. I bought three and built all three variations.
Good use of money👍
Why do I need to see a commercial when I am a YT premium customer. Irritating!
Does it have a stand so it looks like it’s floating if the wheels are turned in

Do you think the price will go down for Black Friday deals?
It’s a good toy 👍👍👍
Those minifigs rock!
Marty does! Not sure about Doc.
See what I did there?

Lucky finds!!
Wow, will buy it.
good video thanks !
Wish they could find a way to make front wheels turn as well as switching between hover and drive mode. I just love turnable vehicle
My gullwing doors do stay open. So maybe loose parts? not sure. Anyways I think it is a great set.
Just buy and assembled mine and it does not suffer from the problem of not be able to let the doors open. Maybe Lego fixed something?
Great video man
Honestly I don't get why people complain about stickers in lego sets. It just improves the building experience, right?
I just bought this set last Saturday
I got this set earlier today and am missing 2 of the 6 pieces on page 234. Spent an hour searching around where I was building and tracking to make sure if I could find someone I had accidentally used them. Could only find 10 that I had used and the index says 12 of that piece was included
is the Lego DeLorean limited edition
I finished this set, i built the 2nd one, and i switch from the original to the 2nd one with the hook.
Wait a minute... are you telling me you built a time machine... out of a LEGO Delorean???
😎
This video just made me order the set.
Why cant Lego put this much thought into its $500+ sets?
I wonder who is the hooligan that smashed that retro on the right door?
Where is the sticker sheet? Cant find it!
Great scott! I went with the BttF 2 build as well. Kinda want to build another to have the version from the first movie, but maybe if it goes on sale, but then it’s been out of stock for so long maybe that won’t happen any time soon. 🎃
