For a second there it really seemed like maybe we could get a hoverboard straight out of 'Back to the Future II' for the holidays this year. Or maybe just buy one at any time to have a "me day," but once that thing flew over water, we knew it was too good to be true.

Rumors swirled in the '80s and '90s that the Hoverboard was real (rumors fueled by director Robert Zemeckis) but, alas, much to the disappointment of children everywhere, the Hoverboard was just another piece of movie magic.

But now, just three years shy of 2015 - the "future" of 'Back to the Future, Part II" - Mattel has finally announced the Hoverboard for sale.
