activexp Posted January 8, 2019 Author Share Posted January 8, 2019 Cracking on with the December/January release of issues 102 - 107. Issue 102: Cables and wires for the front right side. Issue 103: More cable and a tube. Issue 104: Junction box and 'filaments' for top left side. Issue 105: Same as 104 but the other side. Issue 106: More LED's and a support bar for the rear of the car. Issue 107: Power coil grilles for left side. The power coils don't light up throughout their length as depicted in the Eaglemoss promotional material. The LED's simply aren't bright enough for the job. Disappointing. That's all for this release. Once again, thanks for looking. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

activexp Posted March 12, 2019 Author Share Posted March 12, 2019 Moving on with the March/April release, issues 114 - 119 with a very low parts count. Issue 114: Detail parts for the reactor drum and a screwdriver. Issue 115: Reactor platform detail. Issue 116: Four cables for the reactor drum. They should all be the same length. I had one that was too short and one that was too long. Issue 117: More tubing for the reactor. Issue 118: More detail for the reactor platform. Issue 119: Reactor exhaust pipes. That's it for now, only another 11 issues to go and the beast will be finished. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spoly Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 it's looking really good. is that the Pocher Aventador in the background? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activexp Posted March 14, 2019 Author Share Posted March 14, 2019 Yes it is the Pocher Aventador, A better engineered kit than the DeLorean it has to be said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini 8 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 This thing is incredible. Good work so far. I plan to build a comparibly tiny Aoshima Time Machine and was looking for good references but with rather moderate success. I think I will now take only this thread. Here´s all I need. It looks really accurate and well researched. 😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activexp Posted May 1, 2019 Author Share Posted May 1, 2019 Another outstanding release with issues 120 - 125 and another very low parts count. Issue 120: Vent Pipes. Issue 121: Left exhaust cowl and a pipe. Issue 122: Left Exhaust cowl vanes and a pipe. Issues 123, 124: Same as 121, 122 but right hand side. Issue 125: Left and right vent cables and some stickers.

Dr. Fiat Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 This is phenomenal! Great job on the build, and I'm really impressed by the quality and finish of the monthly parts. We will celebrate with you when it's done 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activexp Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 The final parts of the BTTF DeLorean build, issues 126 - 130. Issue 126: Parts to complete the exhaust cowls. Issue 127: Parts for the plutonium case. Issue 128: More parts for the plutonium case. Issue 129: More parts for the plutonium case. Issue 130: Parts for the plutonium canisters. Also with issue 130, the alarm clock. So that's it, all done. Eaglemoss have extended the build for the BTTF3 railroad conversion but I'm not doing that, 130 issues over 2 years is enough for me. I've briefly tested the electrics and I think I've got some faults with the tail lights, only the brake lights appear to be working. I'll post photos of the finished car in RFI in due course. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roymattblack Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 A voice from the past here... Can you tell me - does issue 126 contain ONLY parts for the rear upper 'exhaust' boxes, or are there parts included that are needed elsewhere? I'm storing my parts and I'm just up to 119. My next sub takes me to 125. I really DON'T want the extra stuff, but I 'might' need issue 116 if there are 'other' parts apart from the exhaust vanes, which I don't want anyway... (Doing that part myself. A great build, BTW... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for not replying sooner but have been away in very sunny Greece Issue 126 contains only the exhaust port uprights and bases, nothing else. Hope this helps.

Pouln Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 (edited) Great build with a really wonderful model as result. Love it. Pity eaglemoss is so picky with the countries they ship to. Guess they missed the open market idea of the EC. Thanks for sharing your build with us. Edited August 1, 2019 by Pouln 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
