It's a nice, well done product. But it has room for improvements. Given the price, I would have liked for at least the sticker to have been fancier on the board. Maybe lenticular or something. But it's still just a fantastic display piece with some great action features. I think their Ghostbusters props are both better. Worth the price point? Probably not, but I don't regret it. I love the thing.

Yeah, its a wonderful piece, but after seeing so many reviews on it on YouTube, its definitely not something I'd get for its original price. The price is what bugs me, its costly for something that's basically unplayable and will just sit on shelf. I think we could've gotten a little more bang for our buck but I'll wait till it goes on sale next year or something. Again, wonderful piece but just overpriced.

I don't understand what you mean by a fancier sticker, it looks exactly like it does in the movie. Also, how come you didn't take any pics of the bottom?
Anyway, the futuristic Nike sneakers would go great with that.

This thing was basically a disaster. When the co-creator of BTTF comes out and apologizes for the product you know you have done something wrong.

Anyway, the futuristic Nike sneakers would go great with that. It LOOKS correct, sure. But the movie one has a lenticular quality to it, this is just a glossy sticker. It looks nice on display but when you get up on it, you'd expect more for something claiming to be a prop replica and costing 130 dollars. I still love it, but it's wildly over priced for the end product.

Meh, I'm glad I waited. I'm pretty sure Nike and Mattel will make Mass Market shoes and Better Hoverboard Props 2015. That was their ultimate goal.

Funny part is you could buy 20 to 30 of the hover boards for what a pair of the Nike Limited Edition shoes now sell for.

bought a mod kit off ebay that included new velcro strips and a furry pink piece that fits over the strap. It makes it look 100% better, now the only thing would be to find a way to give it a lenticular look.

I keep meaning to at least shove something in the handlebar hole to blacken it out, because for whatever reason, it really bugs me that it's not.

This is one of those really cool things that I'm glad they made but I'll just never pick up.
