The future is now! The Michael J. Fox Foundation and Wizard World, Inc. have teamed up with eBay for Charity to auction off a one-of-a-kind, custom-made Back To The Future pinball and arcade machine signed by cast members Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd and Lea Thompson, with 100% of the proceeds going back to The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research.
The auction is currently live and will end on August 30, 2016 so bid now! The machine features:
· Original Back to the Future artwork, custom designed to make this machine one-of-a-kind
· Laser engraved plate autographed by the 3 cast members
· Limited edition 1 of 1
· LED buttons, Joystick and trackball
· Orange Electroluminescent molding

The device was created by VPcabs, which was recently featured on ABC’s “Shark Tank,” a renowned arcade manufacturing company known for its high-quality, custom machines.
“We are continuously grateful for every unique partnership that helps speed a cure for the estimated five million people worldwide who live with Parkinson’s disease,” says Debi Brooks, Co-Founder and Executive Vice Chairman, The Michael J. Fox Foundation. “By connecting Back to the Future fans to our community, we do more to speed research toward a cure and move closer to a future without Parkinson’s.”
In 2011, eBay and Nike have helped raise more than $4.4 million for The Michael J. Fox Foundation when they auctioned off 1,500 replicas of the film’s iconic, self-tying Nike Mags. The shoes featured a glowing LED panel and an electroluminescent Nike logo in the strap.
eBay for Charity is a platform that enables members of the eBay community to donate to causes across the world. To date, more than $650 million dollars have been raised on eBay for Charity.

So far it’s given me more than its taken…I get to spend time with my two boys. I lost the ability to work but the time at home is priceless!
Got to make the best out of the worst and that is what it sounds like. How old are your boys? I have a 6 year old and a 3 year old and I wish I spent more time with them. Working sucks.
Almost 7 and 4 months! Being a new dad again with this is hard. lol
I always dreamed of retiring early….ha!
I am in my early 40’s and I can say I could not have a new born again. I love babies but man I am glad my kids are a little older.
