lol, that's pretty cool. Now all you need is a TGX kiosk like the one Sparky has.

If I could only find someone willing to sell one......    :(
All is well. :)

Damn that is an amazing collection pickup!  How much did that set you back?  $3K ?

Sicboy057's collection came today - HAPPY HAPPY!





Thanks Sicboy057!

Roy - awesome pickup you got there.  That's definately a prize to have.  Bummer it was so dirty - did it look different than the one pictured in his auction (ie - did it look like the seller had more than one?)  That would be pretty crappy - photo the clean one, sell the dirty one.

JapanTokei- I paid Sicboy's asking price plus I paid some extra for the shipping insurance.  My only hesitation was that I have so many duplicates of games, but those will be going on my trade list sometime in the next week or so.  Some of the great stuff like Sapphire (Legit), DracX, and Spriggan will be added to the list.

Nah, it was definately the same one from the auction.  The pics in the auction, now that I look back, show all of it...  If you compare the pic I posted of it to the completed auction you'll see what I mean.  I'm happy though.
All is well. :)

I'm fully aware of that, which is why I said "someone" and not "Sparky"...    [-X

Yea, I think so too.  Anyone have Mystic Formula?  from reviews that looks like Time-Soldier with 4 player simu action... looks darn cool, but also relatively elusive, I haven't seen one come up for sale.

Nice hoobs.  :mrgreen:

Henry - $1400 for that is a steal.  If I were you I would sale some of the systems w/games you don't need as bundles and keep the rare items like Darius Alpha and 1941.  With some effort, I think you can net $1K or so in a few auctions, leaving you with a cost basis of $400 for lots of goodies :)

just curious, does the Draculax / Sapphires / other tough PCE CD games have spine cards?  it's not showing in the pics.

JapanTokei- I paid Sicboy's asking price plus I paid some extra for the shipping insurance.  My only hesitation was that I have so many duplicates of games, but those will be going on my trade list sometime in the next week or so.  Some of the great stuff like Sapphire (Legit), DracX, and Spriggan will be added to the list.

But it very much is not.

Now, that is like a time soldier game :)

altough, it looks much better on pics, than it actually is in real :(

JapanTokei, most of the games have spinecards and registration cards, but I'm keeping those.  I do have duplicates without those items.  I've got to locate my dracx spine/reg - I bought it new and know I kept it - just have to find the items to add to my trade list.  Keeping track of everything is a chore for sure.  I may do as you suggest and sell, but right now I would rather get trades.  I'm still missing a few US games/parts and am looking for some PCE titles too.  Here's the trade list: https://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=8161.0.  Oh, and I have another BIG order coming in that will really beef up my collection.
