Overview
A Time Boost button is the working part: press it and the car accelerates, with lights adding to the movie effect. The body reproduces the Back to the Future time machine at a small scale, in plastic. The car is driven by remote control and powered by batteries.
The look is the point: a recognisable movie car that doubles as a display piece. The limitation is the missing performance detail.
Who it's for
Fans of the film of any age who want a toy they can drive outdoors and then display. Anyone expecting hobby-grade speed or distance should look at a car that publishes those numbers.
Pros and cons
- Recognisable Time Machine movie styling
- Time Boost button for extra speed
- Lights add movie flavor
- Batteries listed as included
- Control range not listed
- Which unit takes the batteries is unclear
- Plastic body, not a collector die-cast
Performance notes
The remote control sends commands to the car, and pressing the Time Boost button raises its speed for a short burst. Power comes from alkaline AA batteries, so the pace fades as they wear down. The listing gives no figures for range, run time or top speed.
