Here is some pictures of my Mattel HB with added green velcro , Black screws and New Foot Strap. Still need to add new green velcro on foot disk to match. It will display nice from the top , and not much more can be done without a total re-build. imgur: the simple image sharerimgur: the simple image sharer imgur: the simple image sharer[/url
JakeBluesZombieWhere did you score the velcro and fur? Is it ashesive velcro? If not, what kind of gluing method did you use? Thanks a million!
Hey, LOL cool ! Let me build up some stock and make up some kits so they will be ready to go. I am going to lighten up the green Velcro some I think, not much lighter though. I will also have instructions on the layout by numbers on the board and Velcro to apply. Can also send a cheap Glue Gun with sticks, so anyone that does not want to have to pick one up will have everything needed. I will post on Ebay in a few days, Thanks!I'm in for 4 of those kits. Send me your PayPal address and the amount including shipping to Canada for it, I will purchase immediately.
I am thinking of making ( Kits ) for people to buy that will be ready to put on their HB from Mattel to make it look this way. All you would have to do is peel and stick the Velcro on the board, will be cut to size and shape for post hole ect. Will also add in the foot disk Velcro that will be easy to put on. Foot strap (On the Mattel Board )will have to be cut in the middle at the top of the strap and then trim off about 2.5" , as it is way too long. Then my foot strap will be ready to Hot Glue it, not very hard to do. Thanks!
Sure, I understand and 100% with you. I did buy another one Dec. 4th to keep MISB and wanted one to add custom touches to, as it was crying for help. The Strap on the Mattel board just kills me, as I watched a youtuber say "it was sized to fit a Elephant's foot.. ?" LOLI like it, however I dont think I am going to mod it too much, I want to keep it stock for collecting purposes. but looks nice.
I have to admit i was really caught up in the anger mob mentality, but after getting mine, I really like it. It could have been better but it satisfies my urge to own the BTTF hoverboard. Looks live in my living room, and is instantly recognizable to the common person. I am moving on to my proton pack build. Good luck with your mods

Hey, The Velcro is painted with a special paint that want scratch off and had the Fur saved for this.
Likely for the adhesive backing. I haven't seen any Green/Lime/Bright green velcro with adhesive, only black and white. It's probably easier to just dye white adhesive, than to try to get a glue for the green.
