Where it came from
The LEGO Creator Expert Time Machine, set 11947-1, was released as part of the LEGO Ideas program, originating from a fan submission by Masashi Sugiyama. The set was designed to capture the iconic aesthetic of the DeLorean DMC-12 as featured in the Back to the Future film trilogy, offering a displayable model that incorporates elements from each of the three films through modular components. This iteration was highly anticipated by the adult fan community for its ability to transform its configuration to match the specific look of the vehicle across the franchise's timeline.
Developed in collaboration with Universal Studios, the design process focused on balancing the vehicle's unique angular silhouette with the limitations of the LEGO brick. LEGO designer Steen Sig Andersen refined the submitted concept to ensure structural integrity and accuracy, particularly regarding the gull-wing doors and the distinct flux capacitor aesthetic. Upon its release, the set was well-received by both casual fans of the movies and serious builders, becoming a landmark entry in the LEGO vehicle collection for its cultural relevance and technical design.
