Stop everything and empty your bank account, because Griff's 'Pit Bull' hoverboard used in Back to the Future II is for sale on eBay. And it's only $13,000 -- for a fully functioning hoverboard! "GW? I don't think it actually hovers." WHAT? For $13,000 it damn well better hover AND have GPS navigation so it can cruise me home on autopilot when I've had too much to drink. 'Hey McFly, you bojo -- those boards don't work on water.' 'Unless you've got POWER.' I embedded that clip after the jump so you can see Griff's hoverboard in action. Now let's buy it together and go bully all the neighborhood children. "Bullying isn't cool." Good, that was a test and you passed. DON'T BE A GRIFF, KIDS.

Hit the jump for a bunch more shots and the scene from the movie.

Thanks to disqus_YtYcYLXO6a, who didn't so much send a tip as include a link to the auction in yesterday's comments about the Robotcop droid for sale. I'll allow it.

    So does it really hover or is it just like a model or something?

  • ODwanKenObi

    Seriously looks like it cost around $50 to make from stuff you find at Home Depot.

  • Mike Panic

    Not used on screen + not seen in movie = $0

  • Since I really like you guys, I'm willing to make reproductions of this thing for 1/2 price. That's right, it'll be able to do everything this one does for the low low price of $6, 500.
    Hit me up.

    So it will be capable of nothing; just as the original yet worth vastly less because it has no real ties to the movie? anything over four thousand for a board that doesn't actually hover...puuhhleeese.

  • Lee Tan

    So does that mean it 'will' work on water?
    Edit: Errr saw the youtube attachment :/
