MattyCollector has one of the sweetest pre-orders of all time going on right now with the first release of a replica hoverboard from the seminal 1980s trilogy of films Back To The Future.
Now, I know what you’re thinking, but while I doubt it’s ability to be a fully functioning hoverboard that hovers and moves like a skateboard, unless it’s on water (you need power for that), it is without a doubt one of the raddest replicas for any film memorabilia collector. And while the idea alone is enough to get any fans heart racing, wait until you hear the details.
The items pre-order description boasts:
Movie-accurate down to the smallest detail and fully sanctioned by Universal Studios, this is a 1:1 scale model (measures approximately 28″ x 8″ x 3″). Our Hoverboard includes authentic “whooshing” sounds sampled directly from the films and a deco featuring Mattel logos just like in the films. And although full hovering technology isn’t expected until 2015, be assured your Hoverboard will gently glide over most level surfaces (it will not, however, work on water).
Now all you need to do is head over to MattyCollector, shell out $120 + shipping, and place your pre-orders from now until March 20. The availability will be limited, but the payoff will be great. You already know what the hoverboard looks like, but the site has some more details to make you want it even more. I mean, who doesn’t want a hoverboard? I know I always have. They promised us, remember!
