October 21, 2015 by Stephen Jang Leave a Comment

Today is October 21, 2015 – Back to the Future II day! Check out this cool looking collectible prototype from HK toy-maker Kids Logic. This is the “DeLorean – Time Machine Magnetic Floating Edition” from the Back to the Future II movie. The 1/20 scale DeLorean features opening doors, removable wheels, special floating effects, and more than 10 light-up LED effects. Also it will come with 2 bases: a floating base and display base. The “DeLorean – Time Machine Magnetic Floating Edition” will retail around $210.00USD, but the bad thing is it won’t be released until 3rd quarter 2016. A one-year wait!
