    Hi all,

    Just saw a listing on ebay for the DeLorean Time Machine (LEGO Ideas 21103) for €126.

    It's a piece I'd love to own, being a huge fan of the films, but is it good value for money i.e. could I find it for cheaper in the future?

    Does anyone happen to know more or less what the RRP was when it was in stores?

    Assuming you buy the DeLorean, should it become cheaper in future you can always buy it and then travel back to the past and advise your past self not to buy it. But then by changing the past you won't have it in the future........or something

    Id say thats top price. Seeing sealed in box for about £95 gbp. Is about the max. They were around 45 new when they came out. I think about 90-100 euro is a good price for these now. Will probably still increase as time goes on.

    Its a tough one to call, because it is a retired product. Its 401 pieces. The Ghostbusters Ecto-1 is 508 pieces and can be bought on Amazon for £56. If they re-release it sometime in the future, the price may come down a bit.

    If you want it and you have the spare money, then sure you might as well. Or you could save it and wait to see if the release the train and get that when it comes out. Not as iconic as the DeLorean, but if it does get released, it should be of a decent size.

    a sticker says "sheild" rather than "shield"

    I thought all sets has this, most of the early ones did anyway. I'm not sure if they issued a fixed version.

    I'm not sure if they issued a fixed set, but if you emailed customer services they sent you a correctly spelled tile.
