Jumping Jigowatts!!!

Today Diamond Select Toys is ready to reveal its first prop replica from the smash-hit Back to the Future film franchise! The central heart of the De Lorean time machine, the powerful Flux Capacitor will soon be available to fans and amateur time travelers alike!

Thirty years after meeting a time-traveling Marty McFly, Doc Emmett Brown perfected the device that had made that meeting possible – the awe-inspiring Flux Capacitor! Capable of controlling the 1.21 jigowatts necessary to power the time-traveling De Lorean, this replica flux capacitor features movie-accurate light effects designed to recreate Marty McFly’s voyage through time in the celebrated 1985 film, Back to the Future. Measuring over sixteen inches tall, twelve inches wide and six inches deep, this life-size replica features an adjustable power setting for all your time travel needs!

Each Flux Capacitor replica features hand-numbering with a matching box and Certificate of Authenticity. Look for pre-orders on this item to begin this December and keep coming back to Diamond Select Toys for more updates and sneak peeks at upcoming products!

Awesome. Any word on price?

 

[Patattack]

Wait, will this be a full replica? The picture with the box opened makes the lights inside look like they're printed on a flat surface and backlit...is that how it's going to be, or is that just a digital mock-up that they didn't want to go too in-depth on?

Hey! That's pretty cool! If the price is right, I might just buy one to display around the apartment.

I don't care if it's not a DMC, my car NEEDS one of those under the hood somewhere!!

I think it's a mock up as you see that the lettering tape on the glass isn't visible on the image on the right.

This is heavy, Doc!

Wait a minute... Are you teling me you built a PROP REPLICA... Out of a TIME MACHINE!!!?

I think it's a mock up as you see that the lettering tape on the glass isn't visible on the image on the right.

Not necessarily.. note that the background of those pictures has been removed. The image of the back of the lettering tape was probably erased in Photoshop so it wouldn't hang out in space there and look weird.

Really looking forward to this!
When I get one, I'm going to come back and give it to myself now so I dont have to wait once I've pre-order it. Fool proof

 

[Talisen]

Cool! I'm very interested in getting one.

So, then you have it now? Cool let's see! Just don't give it to Biff. I don't want my future all screwed up.

Looks like UPS screwed up and mis-directed it to my place.
Send me your address and I'll get it to you yesterday.

I really hope these run off 12v - or come with an adaptor... I'd hate to get one and have it running on wall current!
