I also picked up what I believe is a screen accurate Doc Brown tool pouch from eBay. It's a Klein tool pouch, model 5167. I wasn't planning to do a screen accurate Doc costume to go along with this project, but like everything else, it has snowballed. I think, though, that I will fill it with some dog-related items like a water dish and leash, instead of filling it with Doc's tools. I'll end up sourcing his tools to turn this into a nice display item once this project is finished.
Here is the pouch I picked up on eBay (which doubled in price thanks to a last minute bidding war).
And here is a screen grab and pic from ScreenUsed
I picked up the Doc Brown costume from Halloweencostumes.com, which is pretty decent, but my only gripe is that the pocket accents are orange instead of pink.

Well this is what I get for leaving the dog at home alone to watch Mission Impossible on a weeknight...

I have a mini board too. I did it to refine my technique, and then HC came out with their hoverboards and it got abandoned. Mine has an angled tail.

Foamcore, wood glue, hot glue, spray adhesive, paint, and a sticker made from Roland excellent hoverboard files.
Everything a dog could want. Right?

Progress:
Body is nearly complete. The lines aren't so clean right now because it's still modular so I can tinker and paint the front, back, and doors separately.
Wheels came together nicely. Glued two 6" styrofoam discs together, sliced off a quarter to they tuck into the body, sanded the edges round, made room for push light LEDs, and painted em black. Will add tread detail next.
Electronics are next. Here's a test of one of the headlights and the Flux Capacitor well, um, fluxing.

Seen the picture on the group! Loving it <3
Coming into the home stretch! Trying to get this done in time for fan appreciation day at Puente Hills Mall on Sunday.
I haven't sealed the body up yet so I can get access to add the LEDs for the headlights and taillights and run wiring to the Flux Capacitor.
Still need to add the hovering tires, add EL wire to the flux bands (the original one I bought faded already), and add some bits to the dash (speedometer & time circuits).
I also picked up this cosplay version of Doc's remote. For $60 I'm super happy with it.
