Scroll down the page to the artwork of the original and it has 2 gas flaps on the hood. One for driver & passenger! :-)

Ships before November 2023? Sounds like a scam.

Did you have to wait a year? Do they charge your card right away?

That DeLorean rendering is the vehicular equivalent of a game of telephone gone wrong.
Everything that is slightly off with the 1/64 scale hotwheels sculpt is replicated back up to full scale. The front end is approaching the uncanny valley of Chrysler Lebaron.

Plus the pictures of the DMC12 appear under the text of the Alpha 5 and vice versa
But $40 for two $1 cars still on their cards, but in a nice box??????
Mind you, I don't have a HW DMC12 with two gas flaps, so .............

No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"

Oh be careful! The website renders are the only place where you get the extremely rare 2 gas flapped hood. The actual hotwheel model does not appear to have them. :-(

It was a doctor action figure during Covid. It took about 8 months, yes they charged the card right away. But the action figure did arrive right before Christmas of last year. I wasn’t horribly impressed with it, but he seemed happy.
I didn’t order this Delorean, I already have a Delorean dmc-12 hot wheels and I am not sure how I feel about this Alpha 5 carrying the Delorean name……it makes me feel conflicted
