Mission Complete

I have been a forum member for a while and have only read articles, but thought it was about time to introduce myself. As I can't find a 'New Members' thread, thought I would post it here.

I received this in the post today...



...and it has now enabled me to give a home to one of my prized gaming possessions...







I have had the LT and Super CDROM2 since about '99... sadly they are both unboxed hence the need for the case.

I had been searching for the LT -> Super CDROM2 adapter for years and then stumbled across one on eBay UK about 7 years ago for.. somehow I snagged it for £50... bargain.

That's f*ckin sexorific right there.

It's basically porno.

What kinda case is that? how much was it?

I've entertained the idea of doing something similar with my stuff, since I have to cart it to conventions every year and usually just put them in boxes and hope it works out safely

[rcantor77]

You telling me.. man I love that setup.

The case though is just cheap one from a electronics store in the UK called Maplins. Cost me £20 in the sale.
Just by chance that the width is perfect for the LT/SuperCDRO2 setup and enough space for all the cables too.

Not sure if they ship internationally but they also have them on eBay too...

Now I feel alot happier storing and transporting it around... 

[Arkhan]

yeah we have cases like that in stores around here.

I was going to grab one made for mini-gaming figures.  There is one that is multi leveled... so I could store multiple systems, lol

That is smexy.

"Gentlemen..." *flips case open, gold shines from it*

You need a combination/flightcase lock to make it that step more indulgent.

very nice man

[roflmao]

Yeah, that's sweet!

[Digi.k]

very nice

and maplin is almost around the corner to me too

[hoobs88]

I've been looking for a case like that for my set up. Thanks for sharing!

[hoobs88]

Did you have to cut the foam or was it the "pick and pluck" variety?

[TheClash603]

That case is badass!

It is like the old Blockbuster rental cases, but not shitty!

[PunkicCyborg]

WOW that is freaking awesome. You are a lucky man and I hope you huggle your LT/SCD every night before you go to bed!

[esteban]

Dear Lord!

This is truly awesome:



I don't think my gear is nearly as safe (I keep hardware in padded laptop bags...it can still get crushed and knocked about).

[SignOfZeta]

I have that same case for my Saturn. Its very cool.

EDIT: found a picture:

Yeah that's truly an awesome setup and the case just makes it!
