Update 15 Dec - This came in the mail from my good buddy John (bigjt_2) yesterday. It fits in perfect. Funny thing is, he didn't even know I was buying the hover board.

11 Dec:

Look what was waiting for me on my doorstep today. Too bad it's not a Pitbull.

haha that's great! looks like i'll be watching the trilogy yet again this weekend. first world problems, hah

I was planning on displaying it on a stand that you'd put a skateboard on, but the box is sealed shut, so I don't see any way to get it open without damaging it somewhat. Looks like it's staying in it's box for all of eternity.

I almost bought one of those!! I was afraid it would be built so cheaply and break after the 1st time I would try to "hover" with it!! LOL

MyNameIsEarl · December 2012

Thats awesome. Where'd you get it from?

MissionFailed · December 2012

Been watching these forever. Awesome gift man. The only Pitbull available for the longest time was the actual screen prop, ranging from 10K-25K when listed. But, now someone is making 1:1 scale ones. Compared to the actual prop, the price is somewhat reasonable.

lol, I should've known someone made one.

That is badass bro. Nice grab.

Nightmare · December 2012

Wow, amazing buy. About time good repros came out, it's almost 2015!

the_hudge27 · December 2012

Damn I was actually planning on grabbing one of those and decided not to last minute. Looking at that picture really makes me rethink that decision. Does it have a warning on the box about "these boards don't work on water"?

fatalfuryspecial · December 2012

dude thats so awesome!

RetroDave · December 2012

Hey McFly, you bojo, those boards don't work on water!

Unless you've got POWER!

T3rra · December 2012

Guess they are missing the sticker that warns about not working on water.

Bob Gale withdrew his endorsement because of build quality.

I still think it looks awesome... but for $150, I have to pass.

SwiftFrost · December 2012

Bob Gale thinks it's about as awesome as a screen door on a battleship.

We humans are silly.

Way fun, thanks for sharing

Update: Just got another package in the mail today. This one from my good buddy bigjt_2. I'll post a picture soon. Fits in real nice with the hover board.

I love Back to the Future, and I love NA! ^_^
