Great item |

This replica of the flux capacitor looks great. You may notice that he dimensions and the color of the lights are slightly different if you compare it to the flux capacitor shown in the parking lot scene of the first movie (when Doc shows it to Marty for the first time). On the other hand, it may be impossible to have those details exactly the same; especially if you want to have the lights of the flux capacitor to turn blue as when the "temporal displacement" (as they call it in the movie) occurs. In other words, it is close enough to what you see in the movie and I am glad I purchased it.

Not Perfect, But Good. |

I am mostly satisfied with the product from Diamond Select although as another reviewer mentioned there are some problems. The product looks very similar to that from the first movie but a big differnce is that the lights on the Capacitor in the movie are yellowish and the lights in the product are white leds. When the movie was made they probably used regular light bulbs which would take alot more to power and leds are perfect for the battery power this replica has, which wasn't that big of deal for me anyway. The main thing that irritated me however is the complete lack of the details that are on the side of the product in the picture than are on the actual product that ships. Its something the average person you show your prop too wouldnt notice but to anyone buying it they will surely notice the differnce quickly. I can't imagine finding a better Flux Capacitor anywhere else and is a great but pricy collectors item for any BTTF fan.

Am I the only disappointed person? |

I am genuinely disappointed in this product. It claims to be a 'replica', however it falls so short of the mark that I would refer to it as a toy. Firstly, the lights are the wrong colour, the most crucial element of the replica and they get that wrong. Sadly it's downhill from there. The brightness is of the bulbs is surprisingly dim. The housing is far too big and wholly inaccurate and also differs dramatically from some of the press pictures (all the side details have been lost). The labels are sporadically placed with no absolutely thought and the buttons came off in my hand. I was very excited about this product, but it seems to have been reduced to the lowest common denominator it could be by the time it got to production. Seriously save your money - you'll only regret it if you buy. I got the product 50% off the RRP and still feel that I've been robbed. Sorry folks.

A Very Nice Collectors Piece |

Don't let the price of this item fool you. You ARE getting what you pay for, and it is worth every penny!
There is no real way to describe the size or weight of this replica, you have to hold it in your hands to see for yourself.
It is very well constructed with the outside enclosure cast in what feels like metal. The interior workings are all expertly done, with everything very clean and nothing that seems too delicate.
This might not be a 100% screen accurate piece but it is as close as you will get without paying hundreds more.
Its also the only officially licensed Flux out there.
To put it quite simply, it is a beautiful piece of movie art, and a welcome piece to the collection.
I recommend getting your name on whatever list you can to get on for yourself!
See you all in the future!
