Who has ever thought the Area 88 dude represents any good character design? I know this kind of hairdo is fashionable these days (or is it not anymore yet again?), but it's always looked awkward in that manga to me. Spoiler
Like a desperate attempt to draw any memorable mug.
The rear gate is closed down
The way out is cut off

MASSIVE thanks to Tarma for giving me the heads up on the item poster, he remembered I was after one for years now
And of course to rancor for helping me out, he's alright too
and with the whole pile together at last!!!! Ahhhh so glorious, I am getting emotional

Managed to get my Gradius 5 poster signed by Hidetaka Tenjin, the artist of the poster.
He's well known for his art used for Macross model kits etc.
Damn Tim, you know there are quite a few Americans out there who still lives in tents due to this shitty economy, and you're dropping loads on a single game which only last 20 min. Do you think it's fair? How much did you spend this time?
I was still kicking myself from not having picked this up two years ago when I could, then was offered another last year but had passed. Third time is the charm, I guess!
Muchos años después, frente al pelotón de fusilamiento...

Wish I knew you were after this -- I've had one in my closet for ages looking for a home.

Lovely collection. Perhaps the sort of thing a general would have on the mahogany desk
Technically I haven't bought it just yet, but still... With luck, there will be a house here for us to move into sometime in November.
Unfortunately, I'll probably have to let go of most of my PCB collection to help fund the down payment and closing costs. Anyone want a Dodonpachi, Battle Bakraid or Raiden DX?
