The Hoverboard Heroes play music and feature a cool, stylish design that stands out
Each character has a unique personality and vibe, making them fun and highly collectible for music-loving kids
Remote-controlled hoverboard plays the character’s favorite music and features a removable character for swapping boards, plus a semi-transparent hoverboard design with LED lights for exciting nighttime action
The lineup includes characters such as Hip Hop Hippo, Techno Tiger, and Mosh Pit Mustang, each bringing their own musical energy and personality to the crew
My goodness was THAT frustrating, it took me FOREVER to get here! Well, 32 minutes anyway. Did the app not open for anyone else or was it just ME and MY phone? …
And to wait that long for something so super cute!
It’s a cuteness overload…!
@Lynnerizer@werehatrack I gave up and went to sleep. Figured I’d check the battlefield for survivors at dawn.
“Alright men, and ladies, we know it was a difficult night without support from the technical team. Apparently they were celebrating the Holidays a bit early. They assure us it will never happen again. The de-merits have already been processed.”
Um … just exactly WHY are these characters “Heroes” and also can you enlighten us as to what type of “Music” we can expect them to play??
/showme a trio of Hoverboard Heroes that go by the street names “Hip Hop Hippo”, “Moshpit Mustang”, and “Techno Tiger” who are all riding their hoverboards while playing unknown music that is totally confusing the children watching them.
Setting aside why meh would sell these because duh… Why in the everloving aychee double hockey sticks were these abominations against nature and decency conceived, manufactured, and marketed in the first place? What a time to be alive.
@Goldielucks
Also, I am legitimately considering buying these for a Flight of the Conchords fan just for the hippo. I know it will lodge that song in their head like it’s been in mine since I laid eyes on this thing.
@admiralpoopants unlike us (or U.S.) it seems advanced countries in Asia like Korea or Japan are much better than us (U.S.) about responsible production and recycling. Those stereotypes come from 30-50 years ago.
@admiralpoopants@pmarin While these are not toys I would play with they don’t look like garbage. Your comments on the other hand do look like actual garbage.
@admiralpoopants I don’t normally engage in this shite but I graduated with Highest Honors and had a very successful 4 decade career in technology both working for a government research lab and also private enterprise that went into electronics testing. So whatever, I hope you enjoy sucking the orange penis,
EDIT and BTW “stupid” also worked out very well for my stock options pretty fucking good, I would say they turned out. Honestly looking for places to donate to, is there a brain care charity you might need?
@dijit27
What are porgs?
This is what AI had to say…
OMG, porgs are those adorable little creatures from Star Wars: The Last Jedi, right? They’re like fuzzy, owl-like birds that live on Ahch-To, and they’re basically just too cute to handle! I mean, who wouldn’t want a porg as a pet? Do you love Star Wars or are you just curious about these internet-famous birds?

@OnionSoup Good, we needed a female character!
@Kyeh @OnionSoup “The bow makes it female!”

These look like something you would have gotten in a McDonald’s Happy Meal in the 90s.

@Lynnerizer On a desktop and starting about 10 minutes after midnight I kept getting the Something Went Terribly Wrong video.
@yakkoTDI
something went terribly wrong… 
And then the HUGE M in the middle of my screen. 
YES,
@Lynnerizer @yakkoTDI Same here, while commenting on the poll thread. Seems okay now.
@PooltoyWolf @yakkoTDI
Somebody must’ve been working overtime to fix it. I was wondering how long it would take.
@Lynnerizer @PooltoyWolf @yakkoTDI I couldn’t get into the site either. Maybe Sean was still working on the write-up.
@Lynnerizer I gave up hitting Refresh at about 20 after.
It’s a damn shame that we don’t get any ohshit reports anymore.
@Lynnerizer I blame the bot using too much bandwidth. It would be my nomination as the official tech SNAFU scapegoat.
@Lynnerizer -not for me I was in at 9:06pm (west coast) as soon as I clicked and opened meh; but I had just booted.

Lol… Well you called him right out, didn’t you! Too funny!
@pmarin @werehatrack
On my first read through I read your comment as “it’s sure to happen again!”
@werehatrack
I don’t think I know the “Oh shit” report, must’ve been before my time.
Um … just exactly WHY are these characters “Heroes” and also can you enlighten us as to what type of “Music” we can expect them to play??

@mediocrebot Great job Mr. Bot!
@mediocrebot @MrGoodGuy Yeah that is probably the most accurate one I’ve seen yet!

They call me the Hip-Hopapotomus, my lyrics are bottomless.
@Goldielucks …
@Goldielucks forgive me for thinking that you were the Rhymenoceros….
@Goldielucks Now that I would pay for…
@mehvid1
Where did you get that preposterous hypothesis?
Did Steve tell you that, perchance?
Mmmph, Steve

@therealjrn that took me a minute.
@Goldielucks $30 is pretty steep for a gag, but I fully endorse this one!
Do they have an optional cup holder available so that they could be used to deliver a margarita?
I’m holding out for the Polka Paul Blart Mall Cop edition.

Are these entire products AI-designed? Seems like someone tried to mashup the top three search results for Gen Z.

@mediocrebot very nice, bot!
WHAT … is growing out of Mosh Pit Mustang’s head?
No Alex, No Jeopardy. Let it die.
Well, that sure was a super informative product video…
Do these things just light up and spin around?
@ohhwell I wondered the same thing.
In time for Christmas 2026! Poor marketing perhaps? I mean who is buying toys the days up to and not receiving them until the new year?

So you’re selling actual garbage now like literally should be in a Korean landfill garbage. Baller
@admiralpoopants unlike us (or U.S.) it seems advanced countries in Asia like Korea or Japan are much better than us (U.S.) about responsible production and recycling. Those stereotypes come from 30-50 years ago.
@pmarin I’m speaking completely about the quality of the product, God you’re fucking stupid

We do not acknowledge the hippo as being representative of Georgia Red in any way.

@dijit27 @Lynnerizer Achoo? Anyway they ARE adorable and would compliment my collection of tribbles!
I other related news, I have tribbles available for adorable Christmas presents!
@dijit27 @therealjrn
God bless you!
Those Tribbles sure are cute!

These aren’t selling well. 56 sold as of 3:00 PM EST. Look for these in future IRKs.
@Trinityscrew People in the midwest are not amused. We only listen to the 2 types of music-- Country, and Western.
@Trinityscrew I bet they won’t sell 100 by midnight! (65 sold now at 8:20PM EST)
I’ve bought trash like this before from deal sites. But I’m older and wiser now.
When is this going to ship? It’s been awhile since I placed the order
