Pros and cons

What we like

  • Doc Brown and Marty McFly minifigures included
  • Flying mode with Mr. Fusion and an orange license plate
  • Flux capacitor and time circuits reproduced
  • Suited to builders aged 9 and up

What may bother

  • Flying mode requires rebuilding, so both versions cannot be displayed at once
  • Only two minifigures, with no extra characters from the trilogy
  • Small car model that mainly serves as a shelf piece

Our verdict

92 / 100

A natural for a movie fan who already knows the DeLorean by heart, whether teenager or adult. It builds in an evening and displays easily. If the recipient has not seen the film, choose a set with a more general theme.

Best forFans of the film and builders from age 9 who want a display piece with minifigures.
Avoid ifSkip it if the recipient has never seen the movie, since most of the appeal is the reference.

How we score

The CTG score out of 100 is the weighted average of five criteria rated for every product: proven reliability (36%), perceived value (18%), bond and memory (18%), originality (14%) and novelty (14%). Each criterion has its own published scale, identical for every product: it rates generously, because every product in our selection is already good. The score does not depend on the guide. 60 to 69: average gift. 70 to 77: good pick. 78 to 85: safe bet. 86 to 89: favorite. 90 and above: the perfect gift, a label reserved for excellent products that customers like, one winner per occasion. In a guide, the score for the recipient combines this score with the place in the ranking. The budget is an indicative range: the exact price is shown by the store at checkout.
