I have tickets to a limited screening of Back to the Future plus Q&A with Christopher Lloyd and writer / producer Bob Gale this week and was thinking about getting one of my sealed sets of (21103) Delorean Time Machine signed. Would this increase or decrease the set value?

I look forward to your thoughts! 

Couldn't hurt but I wouldn't be surprised if it did little to increase the value. Like Magic cards, sometimes it's just added scribble nobody really wants, but the card value itself usually still holds true. Make sure to include a photo of the actual signing too. Just helps to add authenticity to it. If you got Michael J Fox to sign it at some other point in time, I could see that absolutely boosting the value.

Keep in mind they almost always charge for autographs and you generally have to wait a while till it's your turn. So I would only do this if you want to meet Christopher Lloyd / Bob Gale yourself.

This x100.

The others would add nothing, IMO.

There is a Christopher Lloyd minifigure in the box. bttf fanboys will want that autograph. 

Good point. I suppose if I had several, I would get one signed. It won't hurt, but I'm still skeptical it brings much additional value to the product.

what about going for the much cheaper and easier to replace DImensions sets that has Doc Brown?

What colour pen are you going to use.

The value will be in the autographs, not the LEGO set.

I would get it signed just from my personal point of view id love one, Would be a very cool item for a fan.

Thanks Guys! I think I will bring a set and see what the mood is like. Just meeting those cast members will be cool enough!

I passed on getting my set signed but it was a great event! Teaser Pic!

Hey,

I just got Christopher Lloyd to sign my Delorean  Totally worth it.

Daisy Ridley refused to sign my Rey construction box as she told me I was going to sell it. She was right! Mackenzie Crook did sign my last Black Pearl, but I only got £50 on top for it.

The signed set would have mutliplied the value by 10 fold to £1.
