Cool stuff, but is it cooler than the SEGA Hot Wheels set?

Them mini Sega cab toys are cool alrighty...and scaled as well. Yes, I do recall the five Sega themed Hot Wheels vehicles. Do you collect Hot Wheels yourself? ^_~

I went down to a big-ass Toys-R-Us store in Japan and was browsing down the myriad of aisles...saw that they carried Hot Wheels and Spawn action figures. Upon closer inspection of the price tag, it was at 1,000 yen for a single Hot Wheel 1/64th scale version. Holy shit! That's too much to pay for just one, seriously, when you can buy one for a mere U.S. dollar or less (especially if they're on sale sometimes for fifty cents at Target every once in a while). The Japanese TRU price for a single Spawn action figure was at 3,000 yen. Over in the States, same Spawn figure can had for a mere $13.00 USD. Why pay more abroad when you can get it at home for cheaper? ^_~

I had the pleasure, as well as luck, to play Galaxy Force in this huge moving cabinet. I just so happen to play it at a local arcade in your area, PC Engine Fan X! ^_~, in the San Jose/Santa Clara area back in 1991. I also play for the first time, Street Fighter II, but I had more fun playing Galaxy Force the way it was meant to be played… I have since buy various versions, SMS, Genesis… but they do not do justice to recreate the feeling that I had experienced playing Galaxy Force back in 1991 at that arcade in the south bay area…
