Hot Wheels Elite BACK TO THE FUTURE 30th Anniversary DeLorean 1:18 Scale



Die cast car's body is brushed metal.

The wipers are photo-etched for a very realistic look.

The tires are rubber and sports the Goodyear GT mark.

The steering wheel turns and the wheels react accordingly.

The wires that run along the car and on the trunk are not molded plastic, rather, are real and are coiled ever so neatly.

Mr. Fusion can be opened.

The hover board can be removed.

Me too and this was not cheap either.

$130 plus tax (if applicable) including shipping and handling - from Amazon.com.

I've seen it on other websites as high as over $200 plus shipping and handling and tax.

There were 29 left when I ordered it from Amazon.com the other day.

Now there is only 1 left.

They are going like cupcakes.

Don't actuate the Flux generator, or it will disappear and be lost in time.

Bah, none of the tires appear to have the mark of Einstein. A huge oversight.

Then add this to go with it with different costumes and removable hands and just about everything from the movie you can think of is included as accessories, except for the CK underwear:

At that price it better actually take me back to the future, or at least have strong enough industrial fumes to make me think it did.

Don't forget if you add the MJF figure, you are over $1,000.

I had that one, but can't find it anymore. Maybe it will reappear next week.

I've thought about selling some of my die casts. I kept the boxes safe, taking up a ton of space in the closet. Started pulling some and realized how many the kids have played with and got broken. LOL Most painful, my '58 Chevy from American Graffiti (Ron Howard's car) and the Ford GT prototype. Amazing detail for bargain price. I don't have anything expensive though, other than maybe my GNX.

I have the standard DeLorean, not the flux capacitor version. Still, a beautiful car and you have to love the stainless.
