Already bought first issue.. been eyeing for a good delorean for ages and this like a good deal for me.. the finish model should have a working brake light (when you press the brake pedal) steering wheel does steer the wheel.. working door light.. cabin light.. trunk light.. head light and the blue outer light when the time machine hits 88mph.. all can be switch on/off using a central consol just like the 1:1 movie delorean.. at least the total cost not paid in one shot..

1st issue got what parts? If it interesting parts, might buy the 1st issue only... Haha. Just like i bought the Millennium Falcon just for the gun parts and blueprint.

Btw, since buying these is considered a 'magazine', can get tax exemption right?

1st issue got rear bumper, OUTATIME license plate, one rear light and 1:1 size finished model poster and magazine of the design history of the BTTF delorean. For subs will get life size of the OUTATIME license plate and display base + plus magazines binder for every 10th issue iinm..

Saw this thing in popular the other day. really got me excited cause im a big fan of the movie, but wondering how much is the commitment end of the day..

May I know if all parts are diecast? or mostly just plastic and only certain mechanism screw etc is metal? Anyone has the hot toys delorean to compare with?

Rm 140 per month... actually isnt that much... if the end result quality is much better than the larger 1/6 scale Hot toys Delorean (which i believe majority plastic)
*
according to EagleMoss this is die cast.. so mostly metal.. didn't know how it compared to the HT version but if you keen on building this one can go to Kinokuniya KLCC as they have the finish version on display.. never got a chance to see it but my brother in law said it was awesome..

Didn't have a chance to take pics from other angle as my kids were running around without supervision sweat.gif

And the person who assemble this did a horrible job.. but this thing is big.. and without the lighting effect turn on, doesn't give the delorean any justice vmad.gif

I have been interested in this model for a long time but missed out on the first few issues. I lost interest as I noticed shops only stock a few issues here and there and I was too lazy to 'hunt' the missing issues. Yesterday, I went to Popular in Wangsa Walk and saw that hey have issue 3 until 10. I bought all the related issues. Today, I went to Allscript and got issues 1 and 2. I also got issues 11 until 15.

Spent the whole day assembling the parts. I did not have any problems with holes alignment. They were perfect (so far). Any holes that I deemed difficult, I will thread them first using the extra screws available (You will always get one extra in the plastic packets), then I assembled them. It is a lot easier to attach the awkward locations this way.

The two front wheels are wobbly simply because of the way the attachment is made, only one small screw per wheel and the fact that it hinges downwards makes it doubly so.

Another thing. Issue 14 has the parts for the right rear brake and suspension. Unfortunately, the one I got has the wrong brake disc (It is for the left one). So I cannot finish that side as tge brake calipers are positioned wrongly.

Post some pictures of your progress.. i only have 1-4 issues.. not assemble yet.. will buy several issues at one shot once a month.. usually big bookstores have almost back issues.. and good for you got no problem with parts except for the wrong disc..
