With Mattel releasing their officially licensed Hoverboard I ordered it and it should be here sometime next week. Because of that and because I have a few prop pieces already from the second movie.... Biffco Museum tickets, Grays Sports Almanac, the color changing hat, and the dehydrated pizza hut pizza. I thought I should get some Nike Mags to display on my Hoverboard. Of course we know the real Nike Mags are extremely expensive, there is a seller on Ebay that sells bootleg versions of the shoes. They don\'t have the logos on them but as a bonus he sends rubber decals (of all the logos to apply and make them accurate). Where my project comes in is I will be taking them apart and installing electroluminescent sheets and LEDs in them myself like I did with my Proton Pack so I can make them really shine and look like the real thing. There is a guy who has video tutorials of how to do the whole process so I don\'t have to figure it all out myself. Here are videos of the shoes I\'ve got on the way along with the tutorials the guy did. I\'m pretty stoked to see how this project comes together.
