 So I have had my board for about a month now. At first I was a bit disappointed. I guess I had envisioned it different in my head, who knows. But I did start to think of some of the positives, speaking as a collector this board is a good collectible. 

1. Its made by mattel (the makers of the fictional board) 
2. It was surrounded by some controversy (toy controversies = $$$ later) 
3. Limited run. (it seems like a lot of people have it but they don't) 
4. it is multiple genres of collecting (toys, mattel, 80's, BTTF, movie props) any time collectables overlap its a good thing. 

Also a good tip for displaying your board on the wall. Get some fishing line and make a loop. Remove battery cover and place loop around screw. then put the battery pack back on. This will make a loop you can use to hang your board on the wall with. I have mine on the wall in the living room and every time someone comes over they instantly recognize it and want to mess with it.

 First off how did you make it look like its hovering? photoshop? did you drop in and take a pic in mid air?

 

 

Wow I just read a post over on theRPF.com that said his board is missing screws on the bottom hoverpads and they do not stay on properly.  Are you Fing kidding me. 

 

I know a lot of people are making BB complaints, I suggest you all do the same.  This is classic bait and switch.
