TAKARA TOMY, a leading Japanese toy manufacturer, has recently announced the release of a highly detailed 1/10 scale model of the iconic DeLorean Time Machine from the classic sci-fi comedy film Back to the Future. This exclusive model, available only through TAKARA TOMY MALL, is set to ship in December 2024, with a retail price of ¥76,780 JPY (approximately $535).
This meticulously crafted model measures an impressive 43 cm (approximately 16.9 inches) in length, capturing the DeLorean DMC-12’s iconic design from the first Back to the Future movie. The model faithfully reproduces the car’s retro, sleek lines and the extensive modifications made by the brilliant inventor Dr. Emmett Brown. The attention to detail extends to multiple LED lighting features throughout the vehicle, which enhance the realism and appeal of this collector’s piece. Die-cast metal for the body adds to the model’s weight and authenticity, while the gull-wing doors can be opened to reveal a fully detailed interior.
The interior of the DeLorean is just as impressive as the exterior. It features a meticulously detailed cockpit, complete with the complex wiring and time-traveling machinery seen in the film. The model captures the leather texture and creases of the seats, adding to its realism. The model includes several accessories, such as Dr. Brown’s beloved dog, Einstein, the lightning hook installed on the car in the movie’s climax, and two sets of flame effects to recreate the DeLorean’s dramatic time-traveling scenes.
