So what's going to be the solution for lenticular graphic mods? (Sorry if this question is naive.. I'm totally brand new to hover board props)

I may have a lenticular solution that looks 90% correct. I should know something by the first week of January. Clock88 was looking into a source to manufacture the very accurate-looking material he posted earlier for cheaper than the $100+/board his samples cost him.

Stumbled onto here after pre-ordering and yet to receive my board, was curious on the reviews....oh dear
Haven't even got it and I'm disappointed...
The one that I whipped up for a fancy dress party sounds 'better'
(Excuse the pooch)

Awww! What a cute bugger!
The foot-pad IS moved forward on the matty board to line up with the bottom hoverplate, because of the way the ball-bearing system is used to be able to rotate it.

That green velcro from hobbylobby made quite a difference.

Oh yeah. It'd have been much nicer if they'd have included it. They really should have done the Handlebars differently too, mine has a wear mark on it already, and I havn't even put it into the board. It just feels like i'd never be able to get it back out without destroying it.
Shouldn't have had anything locking it in place, shoulda just been a round peg and a round hole.

Anyone have peeling decals yet? Mine are starting to come up near the footpad....
On mine, the thin strip between the pink Velcro strips was peeling on one corner from the moment I pulled it out of the box.
...but at least I don't have bubbles. (Though there is a small inclusion on my tail)
