The first time it came out was in 1985, it was a huge success, but at that time there wasn’t much filmware that fans could collect. Now, to celebrate the film’s 35th anniversary, fans can finally get their hands on a new one Back to the future Playmobil toy set that includes that DeLorean time machine and cute characters by Marty and Doc.
Back to the Future stared Michael J. Fox as a music-loving teenager Marty McFly and Christopher Lloyd as an eccentric scientist Dr. “Doc” Emmett Brown. Marty accidentally gets in DeLorean car Time machine and ends in 1955, so he uses the help of a younger version of Doc to help him return to 1985.
The Playmobil Back to the Future set includes Doc, Marty, Doc’s dog Einstein, his DeLorean auto time machine and lots of accessories.

The new Set Back to the Future includes an impressively detailed DeLorean car time machine model with gullwing-style opening doors, dashboard circuits, a plutonium chamber, an OUTATIME California license plate and even the Delorean DMC emblem logo for the front grille of the car.
The DeLorean car model uses batteries to illuminate both the outside of the car and the flux capacitor that the machine uses to move through time. The car’s wheels can fold down, making the DeLorean look like it could fly.
