"The DeLorean Time Machine is a charming licensed novelty for Back to the Future fans with excellent minifigures and clever printed details, but its BrickScore of 42.6 (Skip It) reflects the reality: it is a brief, small, low-playability build that only earns its price for franchise devotees willing to pay for the intellectual property."
The DeLorean Time Machine (21103) carries a BrickScore of 42.6 and a Skip It tier, the lowest score in this batch, driven by limited expert depth (all available reviews come from LEGO.com owner responses) and aspect scores that reflect a compact, license-driven novelty rather than a well-rounded set. Owner ratings average 4.3 out of 5 across 113 reviews, notably lower than the other sets here, and value for money scores 4.07/5, indicating that even fans of the property saw the value proposition as moderate. The set originated from LEGO Cuusoo (now Ideas) and is primarily a display piece for Back to the Future enthusiasts.
Where they split: Owner reviews skew positive (4.3/5) but are clearly filtered through franchise enthusiasm; the BrickScore of 42.6 reflects that on its merits as a LEGO set, the value proposition, design execution, and build experience score poorly. Owners and the expert BrickScore read the same object through different lenses.

BTTF fans love this set for its licensed appeal, detailed minifigures, and ability to represent all three movies, but many owners complain the car is fragile, pieces fall off easily, and both minifigures struggle to fit inside together.
