Flux Capacitor will take you Back to the Future

flux_220x340.jpgHave you always wanted to be able to travel through time? Do you just love the Back to the Future movies? I mean, who doesn't? Well, I don't have a time machine to offer you, unfortunately (maybe next Christmas). But I have something that is sort of close to as cool. Maybe.

It's a replica of the famous Flux Capacitor from Back to the Future, the Y-shaped device that made time travel possible. Well, at least in the movies. Now, for a mere $220, you can have one of your own, complete with hastily-applied labels and real working lights. Now all you need is a DeLorean and you'll be halfway there.

Lighten up Horatio, as one ofthose of us with fond memories of BTTF I think it's pretty fun. I personally wouldn't buy one for myself, but I would be thrilled to get one as a gift.

Come on... $220? I want the fluc capacitor and the delorean, but not for that price, not for both of them together even...
