I wondered if these were sold by anyone here or if anyone bought any of them, I tried on all but failed.

They look cool, but I had a hard time bidding on these without 100% knowing that they are real. Especially with the first production unit and team veteran items.

Interesting stuff, but none of it is worth anywhere near those prices to me.  The display card thingy is waaay too pricey (I bought just the cards a few years back for like $20), the system and Keith need provenance to really be worth anything, and the jacket is simply too ugly to want.

Yeah, the jacket is ugly. Such a shame.

I'm trying to figure out what makes the jacket look so bad.  Is it the high gloss?  Maybe if it were black it'd look better?  Even with the connection I had to TTI BITD, it doesn't look familiar, though, it's not like I worked there or anything, so it could be legit for all I know.

It might've been cool for a few months in the early 90's, but no satin jacket has ever really looked good, especially not in pearl white with wide not-quite-matching-white elastic waist/cuffs/collar.

That display card set up caught my eye.  I like stuff like that, related to the original marketing campaign for the TG-16.  But yeah that price is too high.

Not as rare perhaps, but did you see that pair of hot pink neon TG-16 video game gloves put up recently?  Those are stylin'
