Back to the Future

[DB537]

I just wanted to update everyone on another BTTF paper prop recaster who is once again reselling the work of another member here without permission.

Back in March, Sinigang posted the apology quoted below after he was caught reselling Grays Sports Almanac replicas on eBay that were made using Roland's files which were shared here for free use.

Now it has been discovered that in the last week Sinigang has sold at least 7 more copies of the exact same Almanac under his eBay account 'anything_collectibles', with 3 more listed.

Hello guys. Hope everyone here is doin great.
I already PM'd Roland regarding this matter but I truly want my RPF family to know what I have done.

I am guilty of selling BTTF paper props on ebay, Rolands file in particar.
Roland, as per my PM, I truly am sorry for what I have done, fellow BTTF and Rpf Family, - will not write any BS excuse nor give you any BS explanation because I have none.
I did a stupid thing and to Roland man, sorry will not do anything for what I have done.
To RPF moderators, if you guys think I deserved a punishment for my actions, then I will welcome it with open arms.
Roland, I am truly sorry mate. I don't expect you to forget what I did, but I'm hoping that forgiveness is somethin that you will think about in the future.
To all BTTF and RPF family, this Is a great community and I am very ashamed and humble to all of you.

I like both to be honest

It's 1 cm bigger than the screen used can, but it still looks great. I think no one will ever notice that 1 cm. Great work and definitely better than the first can!

Thanks. This time I was sure to use your PDF label

What a shame
Roland doesn't have to put in the hours to create these items, and he surely doesn't have to share them for free.
This tool needs banned.

 

[Moviefreak]

Well he is banned
Did you contact him on eBay and demand he stop selling them?

No. What could I tell him? "Stop selling something on which I also have no copyrights"? All of us here know, there are no forms of pressure we could exert, which could protect us from recasters. Except for the threat to ban him. And he IS banned now and has all freedom he likes.

I am just sorry this happened to you.

 

[Roland]

I am just sorry this happened to you.

To be honest: I had expected to be recasted from the beginning, when I started making BTTF props. But I didn't expect it from a honorable forum member. That's sad.

Any one have any good suggestion on what to use for the Hoover board I can't use wood since I don't have a way to cut it so any help would be great thanks

What's a "hoover board"? :lol

You could take foam. Many of the screen used hoverboards were made of foam.

I have never worked with foam but I would use fine sandpaper.

 

[chrisguyver]

Thanks to you guys and Roland I'm a proud owner of the almanac and receipt. This was my first time doing anything like this I'm pretty happy with the results. Next I'm doing the comic book and then the hover board.

What do you think? I am working to some errors and some improvement.
