Pre-Order The Back To The Future Hoverboard Right Now

Just as expected, the official Mattel Back to the Future hoverboard made infamous by Marty McFly is now available for pre-order. The hoverboard only costs $US120 and actually comes with a hoverboard scaled for 6-inch action figures too. That’s a steal in my BTTF-loving book.

Gizmodo AU

You know what I needed to rise up to this morning? Michael J Fox playing Johnny B Goode, just like he did in Back To The Future. But not a clip from the film — how about Mr Fox himself rocking it out today?
