  1. Mine had a problem where the hover-conversion switch snapped off after a few weeks of being on display.

    I didn't get a replacement because it was already the second one I purchased since the first was missing components.

    So overall, I was never really pleased with the item, but it's a nice collector's piece. I'm going to wait for the Hotwheels 1:18 to come out.

    I had that happen to mine as well. It's decent, but has the same inaccuracies that the Sunstar model has. Only real pro that the plastic model has over die cast is the doors stay open. You'd think they'd find some way by now to have them stay open at the right angle.


  2. I didn't understand what are the problems with this replica ... ? Everyone seems to be disappointed, can you tell me what's wrong with it ?

    Simply put, instead of doing a replica of the "Hero" prop, the main one, Mattel "studied" all the various variations of the hoverboard props and took what they felt to be the best bit of each one. This is really disappointing considering just how much detail they put into the Ghostbusters props. It really sucks that Bob Gale had brought in HIS hoverboards from the film, and Mattel apparently just discounted it and went with what THEY felt would be a good "replica".

    Honestly? I don't want a hoverboard that doesn't really hover anyways, and considering that there has YET to be a good toy of the freaking TIME MACHINE ANYWAYS(every version I have seen has had one problem or another as far as accuracy goes, and the Back to the Future 3 versions are the worst offenders), I think they did well at least getting the basic freakin shape right.


  3. I've also noticed that there's an odd line bisecting the hood, but it's barely noticeable. Also found that while flying, if you look in the interior, you're able to see through the doors, and the underside of the car is white when it's a bit away. That may just be my crappy computer though. And the see through the door bug affects the driver's side on the ground. And it may just be me, but the back end seems a little high off the ground.

    I hope I made sense lol


  4. Just a bug I believe you're aware of; The VC version DeLorean has problems such as the lights on the doors not being a part of the doors and missing glass on the Mr. Fusion.

    Other than that, it's an awesome job! :D

    The lights on the doors are holes in the door, you can see the window through them lol And yes, there's missing glass on the Mr. Fusion. And it is on the TellTale model. Glass is also missing on the time circuit control switch. Must have been the conversion.


  5. I was hoping this game's novelty had long since died out. Unfortunately not.

    You know what, out of sheer curiosity, considering that the last three posts you've made have all be negative, I took a look at your total posts and for someone who doesn't believe he or she is a troll, you have done nothing BUT troll since July. Not one single positive remark about anything.
